One work I commited to in our New Year Plan is to set up flairs to help you find information that matter to you more efficiently.

To set up the post flairs and user flairs, I want to hear from you what identity you associate yourself with in regards to AR and what content you are here for.

Examples

I am a „developer“. I used Unity to make an AR app that overlays snow over the landscape seen through a phone’s camera. I’m here to ask technical „questions“ when I get stuck in Unity and to have „discussions“ on what SDKs other AR developers use these days. I also occasionally share my own work as „original content“. Appreciate the feedback I got last time I posted here!

I am an „entrepreneur“. I run a startup that sells HUD projectors to automotive companies. I am here to see concept designs to get „inspiration“ on how future will be. This is useful to planning out product roadmap.

I am an „early adopter“. I actually own a HoloLens 2 and a Vuzix Blade. I’m here to get „news“ on latest hardware „devices“ and „apps/games“.

I am a freelance „designer“. If it’s okay with others, I’d like to post some „promotions“ then and now to offer my service to potential customers in this community.

NOTE: Slicing and dicing won’t be perfect. Please feel free to propose wordings you like so that I can take your preference into account. For example, „developer“, „engineer“, „creator“, „researcher“, „maker“, „builder“ might be a set of many different titles that may work for a given person. Same for „enthusiast“, „early adopter“, „fan“. In what ways do you like to be described in a community?

Next Steps

I am going to keep this thread open at least until the end of upcoming Sunday. Then, I will read every single comment you write here to get to know you and what you want from r/augmentedreality. Based on this, I will set up post flairs and user flairs and pilot for a month, before we have another „Town Hall Thread“ discussion on how the initial set of flairs worked for you. Then, we will add the missing ones, remove unused ones, and keep optimizing our flair system. 🙂
