Looking Glass

The Looking Glass Entertainment Experience System is a fully immersive suite of entertainment peripherals recently released by Disney-Amazon. Heralded as the "next gen AR", Looking Glass is able to seamlessly blend SimSense experience with mundane everyday life, tremendously and significantly enhancing the vibrancy and enjoyment of daily routines.   Looking Glass' reception in Southeast Asia was cooled by a blotched demo at Marina Bay Sands in June of 2048, during which three participants were hospitalized. Disney-Amazon paused the roll out for several months, pending quality-assurance testing, before releasing it for "select" regional markets in several low key events.  

Known Experiences

  The Others is a horror entertainment experience, with a pervasive metanarrative revolving around alien contact from with a mysterious and other worldly intelligence. The experience runs in most neural interface and SimSense software as a background process, and makes extensive use of AR intrusions to layer a deep seated and moving horror experience over top of everyday experiences.   Die Harder is an augmented reality game, where participants within a specified area take the roles of spies, insurgents and undercover operatives. The entertainment server dispatches competitive and cooperative missions in real time to participants, who engage in "covert activities" to score points for their side.
