We're moving from a world of two-dimensional 'location intelligence' - think of all the things involving GPS technology - to a world of 3D spatial intelligence - and the this will lead the birth of several new "next" billion dollar industries

The opportunities are pretty significant. Location intelligence had us mapping in 2 dimensions; spatial intelligence will have us doing the same with 3dimensions. The trend will involve the data used by self-driving cars to 'see' around them; cobots or "cooperative robots" working in 3d dimensions to interact with other robots and humans around them; virtual operations using 3D insight headsets, and so much more!

The possibilities are limitless and the opportunities are endless, particularly if we combine smart clothing, spatial intelligence, mobile technology, sensor technology and gamification! To explain, I went to the gym![![](https://cdn-thumbnails.sproutvideo.com/189ddfb61c1ae4c490/a9e203b2eb973322/3/btn_true,w_580,h_360/poster.jpg)](//videos.sproutvideo.com/embed/189ddfb61c1ae4c490/a9e203b2eb973322?autoplay=false)
