Real Agriculture: Cinematic Reality on Farms?

In Real Agriculture: Cinematic Reality on Farms? Kelvin Heppner talks with Nikolas Badminton about Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality and their future in the lives of farmers.
The little rectangular digital displays we carry in our pockets could become obsolete in the not-too-distant future. Instead, the images and information that we squint to see on our phones and other physical screens might be projected into whatever setting we’re in.
