  <description>This week Frank and James stumble into a whole new world of virtual reality with new devices, SDKs, and a whole lot of fun. Virtual Reality is becoming much more interactive with motion tracking devices introduced with the HTC Vive and new controllers coming to Playstation VR, Oculus, and Google VR (Daydream). We take a look at the transformation of the industry and what is next for developers whether it is on a smart phone or a dedicated device.

  <description>Pokémon Go and its augmented reality pocket monster capturing has taken the world by storm. This week we discuss if AR has finally hit critical mass and general acceptance. Frank and James also debate over what exactly AR is and how the Hololens, Oculus Rift, and HTC Vive fit in. What does the future hold for AR? All this and more on this week's Merge Conflict.
