Episode 6 – Ryan Engle
Preston Lewis: [00:00:00] Welcome to the VR Health Insiders podcast, for the creators who’re constructing the way forward for the VR and AR sports activities and health industries that can revolutionize the best way the world will play sports activities, work out and get match along with your hosts. Preston Lewis and Ryan DeLuca, the founders of Black Field vr, who’re constructing the world’s first full health VR fitness center and produce many years of expertise from creating among the largest health expertise corporations on the earth.
They’re bringing collectively the most effective and brightest minds that can assist you and your organization succeed within the VR health revolution.
Welcome to the VR Health Insider podcast. In the present day now we have an superior visitor, the creator of Golf+, some of the enjoyable and common video games for VR, Ryan Engel. Ryan, thanks for being right here.
Ryan Engle: Thanks for having me, Preston. It’s a pleasure to be right here.
Preston Lewis: So why don’t we simply begin along with your background. What have been you doing earlier than creating Golf+ and moving into VR improvement?
Ryan Engle: Yeah, so I’ve been a software program engineer, just about began coding after I was 13. I’ve been enjoying golf since I used to be like eleven. So, love golf, love [00:01:00] coding. Performed some highschool golf, did plenty of highschool coding. My highschool had Pc Science, which was fairly uncommon on the time. However yeah, fell in love with it as a young person. Clearly wished to construct video games, was type of the dream. I acquired my Pc Science diploma from Virginia Tech after which acquired into cell improvement fairly early on.
Bought my first job in like 2008 at an organization that constructed video games for flip telephones, imagine it or not. So this was like a pair months earlier than the App Retailer launched for the iPhone. The iPhone had been out, however it launched with out a App Retailer, initially.
In order quickly because the App Retailer got here out this firm was type of in excellent place to do cell on iPhone. And the corporate pivoted into iPhone in a short time, and that type of uncovered me to it and it was fairly cool, as a result of as a really junior proper outta faculty I had as a lot expertise growing iPhone apps as anyone else on the earth.
So it was like stage the enjoying subject, and I didn’t have a spouse or youngsters so I might keep up quite a bit later and get much more performed than plenty of my friends. [00:02:00] And from there I simply stayed centered on cell for fairly some time, joined a consulting firm known as Mutual Cell that was simply growing apps for anyone that had an thought for an app.
And at first it was all the standard, , bakery app, and canine strolling app and apps for those who actually shouldn’t have been growing apps. After which we began to get larger and larger purchasers, like, we ultimately acquired Audi, and Google, and Pearson and Xerox. And I joined the corporate and there have been about ten folks in 2010, and by 2012 there have been 300 folks on the firm, and growing fairly vital apps for these larger corporations.
Ended up getting uncovered to AR. I type of discovered a distinct segment because the R&D man. Anytime new {hardware} got here out or new SDKs got here out, my job was to type of work out what might we do now that could possibly be fascinating to a possible consumer, develop a prototype, present it to the consumer, attempt to land an even bigger deal, after which incorporate some cool facet, however actually the vast majority of the income was from simply doing the broader mission.
So, realized tips on how to simply develop actually shortly. [00:03:00] After which went and joined an organization known as Wiki Purchase, which was like a on-line buying firm. I really did quite a bit with bodybuilding.com. We might type of see what you have been looking for, what merchandise you have been looking for, and it was like an computerized worth comparability instrument, a Chrome extension quite a bit like Honey. And it could acknowledge the product after which look throughout the web to see who else had that product and who had it at a greater worth. And it could additionally routinely run coupons. In order that acquired me uncovered to type of internet improvement and server improvement. And we did have some machine studying to do the product comparability.
After some time, actually wished to get again to kind of video games, or VR and AR or one thing within the graphics realm. I used to be all the time actually inquisitive about graphics, and that’s after I determined to begin, uh, initially known as Golf Scope, which was an augmented actuality iPhone app that might learn the contours of the inexperienced, and present you the road out of your ball to the outlet. After it was out for a couple of 12 months, it grew to become fairly clear that that enterprise was simply probably not going [00:04:00] anyplace. So pivoted into VR and that’s how we acquired right here.
Ryan DeLuca: These web site add-ons, the chrome extensions and issues like that, that was positively a ache within the butt for corporations like Bodybuilding.com, , as a result of it made worth comparability simply really easy.
And it’d even be, like, affiliate hyperlinks type of going via all that stuff, which, , clearly is superior for shoppers, however it’s like each single day a brand new lower cost on some random nook over there. So I’ve to be actual, I won’t say some good issues about you.
Ryan Engle: Yeah, no, don’t fear. I gained’t do it personally. Actually, a part of why I left was I didn’t have a ardour for that house. And as you get deeper into the affiliate world, it will get a bit of type of grosser.
Preston Lewis: Superior background. You’ve had a ardour for expertise, and coding and product creation from type of the get-go, huh? So that you’ve been, what’d you say? Twenty years robust?
Ryan Engle: Yeah, twenty. Sadly, extra like twenty 5, getting older, however yeah. Over twenty now of writing code just about each evening and weekend that I can get away with it. And even now, I’ve acquired a spouse and children, so clearly attempt to spend so much of time with them. But when I’ve acquired [00:05:00] free time on the weekend I’m sitting in entrance of my pc attempting to bang out a brand new thought. It’s simply essentially the most fascinating factor. Apart from enjoying rounds of golf, if the climate’s good, then I’ll most likely be out enjoying golf or pickleball, but when it’s not good or if it’s nighttime, I’m in entrance of the pc attempting to construct a brand new function.
Preston Lewis: Sounds such as you created your excellent candy spot, then.
Ryan Engle: VR’s a terrific house to be in, as a result of it’s quite a bit like cell was when it first got here out. Folks haven’t actually developed the conventions but, it’s like an entire greenfield. There’s so many alternatives for brand spanking new interactions that simply haven’t absolutely been realized or found. And the extra I spend engaged on it and attempting new issues, I simply really feel like I’ve by no means been studying quicker in my life. When you’re within the VR headset, it’s like, you are able to do something. You’re not restricted to this tiny little display screen of, like, having the ability to scroll and faucet issues, you are able to do something. So the extra I play with it, the extra it results in extra experimentation, which has simply been plenty of enjoyable.
Ryan DeLuca: We all the time used to say that with Bodybuilding.com. The [00:06:00] first early years, there wasn’t a such factor as a buying cart. It wasn’t like, “oh, add to cart after which take a look at”. Like, that wasn’t even a factor, actually, as a result of that sample needed to mainly be invented and adopted. And each month there’d be one thing new that you can see that some web site might do. After which, like, the primary like Ajax websites or, like, Flash, , or loopy stuff. And even simply video, this complete new functionality would come. And clearly, after years that stuff has been discovered and that there’s probably not a lot new methods to get into that stuff. However that’s what’s so enjoyable about cell, , when it got here out just a few years in the past, such as you mentioned, an entire new greenfield, like, alternative. After which with VR, we’re precisely in that. The place it’s that, early days the place we’re all figuring it out, there’s not as many instruments. I imply, it’s clearly getting quite a bit higher, however that’s the place that chance is to create an incredible firm.
Ryan Engle: Yeah, precisely. And there’s plenty of friction nonetheless. So I believe that makes it more durable to make the leap. However due to that, should you can work out one thing that does resonate with the market, there’s type of a window of alternative to have an effect and construct one thing that hopefully lasts.
Preston Lewis: Yeah, it does really feel like we’re type of within the preliminary days of lowering the friction [00:07:00] to extend the adoption. I’m positive it’ll come out quickly, however somebody must, whether or not it’s Meta or another platform, come out with the primary blue hyperlink, proper?
It appears like we nonetheless want, type of, that first blue hyperlink to hyperlink us seamlessly throughout. And on this case it’d most likely be a blue portal or one thing. Much more epic than only a hyperlink, proper?
After which the cool factor is like seeing all of the magic moments individuals are already having with VR, , as a result of I keep in mind after I first acquired my iPhone, you guys have been speaking in regards to the sample creation. First, firing up cell Safari, and naturally there was no responsive internet or any of that stuff. And it was simply thoughts blowing, simply even to pinch and zoom these webpages. After which now it’s like hyper optimized. Sure. That’s a extremely fascinating thought, that we’re early days and the way significantly better the patterns are getting. That’s superior.
Ryan Engle: I believe Net is one other one the place like, , WebXR proper now could be simply very… I believe there’s some fascinating folks doing fascinating issues, however so far as I do know, there aren’t actually any companies which are doing very [00:08:00] nicely. Producing income or subscriptions or no matter, via WebXR and I believe it’s similar to what we noticed with cell internet initially. The place initially cell internet was like, “who’s gonna browse my desktop web site on this, like, little telephone?” And it’s type of enjoyable, however it’s not very sensible. Like getting into knowledge’s not that nice. However fairly quickly, I imply, actually inside a pair years, you began to see these cell web sites that seemed virtually precisely like they have been a local app. And so they’d even have the identical type of UI in-built they usually’re responsive they usually scroll and also you don’t get misplaced.
And now, I imply, cell internet is very large, ? Now it’s type of laborious to justify constructing an app, as a result of cell internet is cross platform, all people has it, you possibly can simply click on it out of your e mail, do no matter it is advisable do, and it syncs throughout gadgets. So I do assume that internet is gonna be fairly large for VR as soon as adoption grows. However we’re in these early days now the place it’s a lot like cell and individuals are type of like [00:09:00] testing the perimeters, however nobody’s actually fairly figured it out.
Ryan DeLuca: Such an excellent level. I imply, having to obtain a full app for each new VR expertise you wanna attempt is plenty of friction.
And also you’re proper, like, the present cell or WebXR, simply experiences are simply probably not that good. It’s a bunch of individuals simply, type of, attempting various things and there’s no actual methods to linking between experiences. However I agree, like, that’s the place it’s gonna go. And it most likely gained’t really feel like, , the Oculus browser, I believe they nonetheless name it that. It gained’t simply be like tapping on there after which open issues up, it’ll be extra going from location to location. Uh, I believe is the dream of the metaverse for all of us. Together with enjoying golf. If I wanna go from my work and I would like quick to go to golf, there’s a portal proper there. You recognize, I could be in Golf+.
Preston Lewis: Yeah.
Ryan Engle: We love that.
Ryan DeLuca: What acquired you into to golf, uh, for VR? I imply, clearly you mentioned you have been a golfer and you’re keen on golf, so it appeared like a pure factor for you. However what made you determine like, let’s go all in and create a VR golf expertise, and the way did that get began?
Ryan Engle: I really did a analysis mission after faculty. I stayed at my college they usually had this huge room known as a Cave; it’s like a ten by ten room [00:10:00] they usually type of rear mission onto all of the partitions after which prime down mission onto the ground, and also you put on these energetic stereo glasses, so that you’re seeing various things out of every eye. However you’re standing inside like this Holodeck sort of a factor, and you may see your fingers, you possibly can see all the pieces, however it’s also possible to see the 3D world round you.
And I did that mission and the mission was for like thoughts security coaching. In order that they have these huge conveyor belts and coal mines, and that is at Virginia Tech, so it was actually near West Virginia. And it could kind of practice you tips on how to take care of these conveyor belt methods that may legitimately kill folks, as a result of they’re so highly effective. And tips on how to type of take care of among the risks of it, so it was a reasonably cool mission and it launched me to VR. I used to be fairly inquisitive about VR even from that stage, like, “wow, that is transformative, however like, who’s gonna have this ten by ten room of their home? This isn’t sensible for shoppers.” And all of the headsets have been actually thirty kilos that needed to be mounted to a ceiling and like you can barely transfer, and the decision’s like 640×480 or one thing ridiculous. So, when the unique [00:11:00] DK1 got here out, I attempted that and I used to be like, “that is actually cool”. However it doesn’t do head monitoring, so, like, it’s solely 3 DoF. So it’s like, “eh”. And there’s probably not good controller for it. So I confirmed it to a bunch of individuals; just about everybody will get nauseous and that’s type of it.
When the HTC, um, VIVE got here out, I went to the Microsoft retailer and tried that, and my first blown away second was enjoying House Pirate Coach, which was simply so enjoyable. I’m like breaking a sweat within the Microsoft retailer and I simply wish to do it once more. So I purchase all the pieces, get my pc arrange, get a room devoted to it.
Performed it a bunch, after which it simply type of began amassing mud. I might present it to folks after they came visiting, however like half the time you attempt to run it, it doesn’t work, and such as you gotta replace your drivers and replace the software program. After which the lighthouses, like there’s a lot friction with simply moving into it. At first, I used to be very tempted in 2016 to, like, give up my job at Wikibuy and be like, “I’m going all in in VR. That is large. That is gonna be big. The Vive is thoughts blowing.” After which after like just a few months, I [00:12:00] couldn’t consider a good suggestion, and I noticed I simply stopped utilizing it myself for essentially the most half. So I used to be like, “alright, I’m gonna maintain off on this.” One of many experiences that I attempted instantly was Golf Membership VR, which I believe you possibly can nonetheless attempt.
And it was only a port of just like the golf membership, however it was in VR and I performed it with the Vive. I keep in mind being very skeptical stepping into. I used to be like, “I don’t assume golf’s gonna translate that nicely, like, with out the burden of the membership, I simply don’t know the way it’s gonna work.”
And I performed that recreation and, , to not trash that recreation, however it simply wasn’t superb and I didn’t really feel like I used to be enjoying golf. Like, I couldn’t get the ball to go the place I wished it to. It was simply very irritating. And at that second I used to be like, “yeah, golf’s simply not gonna work in VR.”
Prefer it’s simply not an excellent match. I used to be fairly dedicated to that opinion for fairly some time. After which, as soon as Apple launched ARKit, in like 2017, they launched ARKit, and I used to be like, “okay, there’s AR after which there’s VR. Each of ’em are tremendous fascinating to me. I don’t know which one’s gonna, kind of, take maintain first.” However as soon as Apple launched [00:13:00] ARKit, I used to be like, “okay, nicely Apple, Apple is aware of what they’re doing. They’ve acquired a billion telephones that may now run this and their tech is wonderful.” So I used to be like, “alright, I believe AR is the appropriate approach to get into this immersive house.”
And that’s after I developed Golf Scope. So I used to be, I wasn’t even serious about golf to be sincere, however I used to be like, I actually wanna work on one thing that I’m keen about, as a result of my whole profession had been at startups, and the one factor that I realized fairly shortly is that startups are only a rollercoaster of like, “that is wonderful, nothing is healthier.” And like, “that is so laborious, all the pieces sucks. Why am I working 5 occasions as a lot as my mates getting paid lower than them?” And like “why am I torturing myself with this startup factor after I might go get a soft job as an engineer at certainly one of these larger tech corporations?” That’s simply the character of the beast.
So what I noticed is that after I’m engaged on one thing that I’m simply intrinsically excited to do, one thing that I might be doing [00:14:00] throughout my free time, as a result of I discover it fascinating, it’s quite a bit simpler to get via these darkish occasions, as a result of I’ll simply deal with the work that I’m doing and type of ignore the entire issues that might kill your startup. And identical to actually deal with the work.
However after I’m engaged on a mission that’s simply not that fascinating to me, it’s like double whammy. Like, I don’t even wish to be doing this work and I’m killing myself to do that startup. Like, what is occurring? What’s the level of this? So it was actually necessary to me to select a mission that I might take pleasure in being a consumer of, even when the corporate didn’t work out. I’m gonna construct one thing the place I’m the core consumer of this product. I’m not, I’m not having to ask someone else like, “oh, it’s like a B2B factor and, like, your corporation does this factor that I’ve by no means skilled. Like, what ought to I construct to make your life simpler?” I wished to construct one thing that I personally would get plenty of worth out of for myself, as a result of then I knew that throughout the laborious occasions, a minimum of I might dive into it and be the consumer, and kind of be motivated to maintain making it higher.
That’s type of what led me to golf. After which, I used to be enjoying round to golf, attempting to [00:15:00] consider completely different concepts I might do in AR. And I used to be hitting pictures very well, enjoying very well, however simply lacking plenty of my putts and I used to be fairly satisfied that I simply wasn’t studying the greens very nicely.
And studying the greens is knowing the slope and mainly attempting to guess how the ball’s gonna roll on the inexperienced, as a result of it doesn’t go flat fairly often. It often curves by hook or by crook. And I used to be fairly satisfied, I used to be like hitting all the pieces nicely, however simply not studying the greens very nicely, which is basically necessary to make putts.
And I questioned if the AR tech was adequate to really learn the 3D contours of the inexperienced, after which placing physics is type of fairly nicely studied. It’s fairly nuanced finally, however I figured, a ball rolling on a floor is fairly nicely studied. If I might get the floor, I ought to have the ability to predict how the ball rolls on it. So I ended up taking every week off of labor and kind of prototyping this. And went to a inexperienced, captured all of the uncooked knowledge, went residence, constructed a bit of app, and on the finish of it, I like, acquired a reasonably tough thought of what the contours seemed like. And it type of matched what the ball did after I recorded a video of it, and that [00:16:00] was it. I used to be like, “alright, I believe the tech’s adequate. I believe the information’s adequate to do one thing with it. It’s gonna take plenty of refining, however like I’ve gotten far sufficient on this one week that I’m fairly satisfied that this might work.”
And after I talked to all my golf buddies about it, like one myself as a golfer, I used to be like, yeah, should you might inform me each break, that might be wonderful. And I talked to my buddies, my golf buddies about it, they usually instantly acquired the thought and have been like, “okay, that’s fairly cool.”
In order that’s what acquired me into type of the AR golf aspect of issues. After which after a 12 months of attempting to make it work, I launched it, it acquired featured by Apple. It was like prime of the App Retailer when it launched, as a result of they have been actually looking for cool AR tech that wasn’t tremendous gimmicky, however really helpful. So it acquired prime of the App Retailer, it acquired app of the day a few occasions. Apple featured it within the AR part, within the sports activities part. Like, they actually went out of their approach to function this tiny little app that I made. And even that wasn’t sufficient to get folks to subscribe to it and generate sufficient income.
In order that’s when it grew to become fairly clear to me that like, “okay, the AR stuff possibly isn’t prepared.” And proper about that very same time the Quest had come [00:17:00] out, and I nonetheless was like, “VR is wonderful, however there’s simply a lot friction. Like, I simply can’t justify moving into it. I haven’t seen any breakout successes.” However then when the Quest got here out, I demoed it, a buddy had one and he confirmed it to me early. And I attempted it and I used to be like, “oh my God, this factor is like VR in a field, it’s 4 hundred {dollars} in comparison with an entire pc setup.” You simply put it on and also you’re in VR.
And I used to be like, “man, we’ve acquired this, like, fairly wonderful placing physics tech. I ponder what it could really feel like to simply hit putts in VR, as a result of the expertise is fairly wonderful.” So once more, I took, like, every week and ported type of the tech over into Unity to get it operating in VR. I believe I set myself up with like a twenty foot putt, hit the putt to, like, inside just a few inches of the outlet. It simply felt proper, and I used to be like, “okay, I believe this might work.”
Ryan DeLuca: The issues that you just mentioned that type of hit me was having the eagerness for what you’re doing and really caring about it. Like, we discuss that on a regular basis. Like, throughout these darkish days of constructing an organization, should you didn’t like it, should you didn’t care in regards to the product for your self and perceive the worth of it, [00:18:00] there’s simply no approach you’ll push via these laborious occasions. And that’s the wonderful thing about sports activities and health, you’re additionally serving to folks to alter their life via the product. It’s not simply, “oh, we wanna make a enjoyable recreation that individuals are gonna pay us cash for”, ? Which is nice, however it’s so cool to have the ability to really present a unique sort of worth that improves our life, which is what’s so cool about golf, is it has that actual sport really feel. They really use the actual sport of golf. Now you possibly can go in there and play one thing that you just’re conversant in and it feels good. And I imply, how did that work out with growing it, such as you mentioned, just like the bodily a part of it? Like placing, for instance, however holding management in a sure approach, like making it as real looking as doable. How tough was that versus making one thing that’s extra like an arcade model of golf?
Ryan Engle: Yeah, that’s a terrific query. I went into it with this type of mindset of like, I wish to construct a instrument, not a toy. That was type of the purpose of the Golf Scope app was like, it’s a instrument for AR, it’s not simply one other gimmicky toy. Like, these gimmicks come and go actually quick, however I wanna construct one thing with some lasting worth, so I wanna construct a instrument.
And I went into the placing factor, initially, with that very same [00:19:00] mindset of like, “I’m gonna construct this wonderful putt coaching instrument, and anybody who makes use of it’s gonna study extra about their placing stroke, they usually’re gonna have the ability to follow their placing at residence and it’s for golfers.” And like, , “there’s this 5 thousand greenback tools on the market now that may type of analyze your stroke and do all the pieces, and we will do all of that, however we’re gonna do it in VR and it’s gonna be approach cheaper and it’s gonna be approach higher. And all of the golfers on the earth are gonna like it.”
And we did find yourself constructing type of this like putt analyzer, and putt coaching instruments and a bunch of type of coaching stuff that was actually cool and labored. We’d go to those completely different driving ranges and placing greens and stuff like that, and discover folks to point out it to. And there was this group known as the Main Collection of Placing, which is sort of a legit placing competitors. They’ve like 100 thousand {dollars} grand prize in Vegas. They constructed this huge stadium to do it. So it’s these, like, actually severe golfers which are into placing. Went to point out it to them, and all people that we talked to is like, “hey, we’ve acquired this VR factor and, like, it’s gonna make you a greater [00:20:00] putter. And , you’re gonna be amazed.” And also you simply get these like humorous appears of like, “alright, what are you even like, is it a online game? Like, what are you speaking about? I’ve by no means tried VR. Like, I do not know what on Earth you’re speaking about, however I don’t actually purchase it.”
After which we put it in, we put ’em within the headset, and we set it up in order that we took the controller and simply connected it to a putter utilizing like a motorcycle clamp, like a clamp to place a flashlight in your bike. Discovered some on Amazon, , acquired ’em connected, so now the controller’s in your putter, so that you’re holding your putter as a substitute of holding the controller. So the burden’s excellent. You’ll be able to faucet the bottom and you are feeling it along with your putter. You recognize, once you hit the ball, you get a haptic, so that you type of really feel it in your fingers and it performs the sound, so it’s like a one-to-one. And it’s fairly wonderful, identical to holding the putter up and shifting it, and also you see it in VR, like, it’s a reasonably wonderful expertise.
So we put folks in there, and we, , take them via this type of little program that we had. All people got here out with identical to, “oh my God, that is wonderful and this factor’s solely 4 hundred bucks? Are you kidding me? This must be [00:21:00] 1000’s of {dollars}. That is loopy.” So we did {that a} bunch and acquired type of satisfied like, “wow, there’s a market want for this, that is actually fascinating. “However then once we began to dig into like, who’s gonna spend 1000’s of {dollars} on putt coaching?
After which the largest situation was to ensure that us to persuade anyone that that is good, now we have to point out it to them. We now have to demo it to them. And that isn’t scalable in any way, proper? You’ll be able to’t scale doing dwell demos to each single individual you’re promoting to except you’re promoting one thing for lots.
We then talked to Oculus, and this was like 2019. Went to the Oculus Join Convention. Initially acquired related with their enterprise crew, uh, that have been type of extra centered on, like, what are some enterprise use instances? And coaching was like a large one. And we confirmed them the demo and all the pieces, they usually acquired tremendous excited.
And so they just about have been like, “look, that is actually fascinating; we’d like to help this, however proper now the market’s like ninety 5 % video games. That’s simply who’s shopping for it. Players are shopping for it. They wanna play video games. It’s a less expensive machine, the entire thing is simply [00:22:00] constructed for video games. Should you can simply flip this right into a recreation, we’ll approve it for the shop.”
And my preliminary thought is like, “okay, nice, we’ll make a recreation and possibly we’ll make it free or like 5 bucks. We’ll make it tremendous low-cost and we’ll simply use it as a funnel to get folks to purchase this coaching help, as a result of that’s the place it’s actually at.” That type of acquired us accredited. We began constructing the sport after which in a short time we’re like, “ what? Screw this coaching factor. The sport is the place it’s at. That is really fairly enjoyable and individuals are having fun with it and plenty of non-golfers are enjoying it and having enjoyable.” After which we had a multiplayer and that was like, okay, that is like actually enjoyable. And type of simply put the coaching stuff on the again burner. Recognizing that, that’s gonna require folks to most likely have already got a headset, have already got a relationship with VR, earlier than they’re gonna have the ability to make that leap to grasp that coaching is a viable possibility in VR. So coaching continues to be one thing I’m fairly severe about determining long run, however I believe we’re nonetheless fairly early in type of the VR days the place it’s fairly clear that gaming is the use case that individuals are doing essentially the most [00:23:00] of. And actually proper now, it’s the one use case that I believe is ready to generate any income apart from health. You could possibly type of argue is, like, kind of someplace in between.
Ryan DeLuca: How did the model partnerships come along with, uh, like PGA and Topgolf? I keep in mind after I first heard about your recreation, seeing precise actual sports activities manufacturers being part of this has made it have this cache of simply, like, a legit factor versus, like, some random indie golf recreation that there’s been so a lot of them on the market. However how did that come about and what made you determine to try this?
Ryan Engle: So we’re primarily based in Austin and have a bunch of community overlap with of us at Topgolf. I went to Topgolf after I first got here out in Austin in, like, I believe it was like 2013 or so. And I keep in mind pondering like, “okay, nicely, I’m in cuz I like getting golf balls and I like, , having drinks and hanging out and no matter. However I don’t know why any of my mates would come as a result of they don’t play golf. I don’t perceive how this enterprise is gonna work.”
And each time I introduced mates that they had a blast, and I had a blast. And I used to be like, “okay, that’s actually fascinating, I wouldn’t have predicted that, however it’s working nice.” So Topgolf, you [00:24:00] know, simply has all the time had this wonderful model, and has simply been so good at attracting non-golfers to the game.
We have been type of chatting with them, and as soon as we had this placing demo working, went out to go to Topgolf, confirmed them the demo. Like, “hey, are you guys serious about VR in any approach? Right here’s our demo, we predict it could possibly be nice. Frankly, we’re not precisely positive what we’re gonna do with it but, however we simply wished to point out it to you to see if that is one thing that you just might need any curiosity in — potential partnership, funding, no matter.”
They tried it they usually have been like,” that is really actually cool, however, , we’re so centered on cell and our venues and all this different stuff that’s rising very well, that like VR simply isn’t even on our radar in any way. So let’s keep in contact, however there’s nothing particular to do proper now.”
After which we had the assembly with Oculus and acquired verbal approval for the shop. So then we went again to Topgolf and we’re like, “hey, we’re gonna construct this placing recreation, we predict it could be quite a bit higher if we have been capable of throw the Topgolf model on there. Let’s discuss what [00:25:00] that might appear like.”
And as soon as we acquired that approval they usually type of acknowledged that this is able to enable them to be one of many first manufacturers to actually be in VR, and have an expertise in there, though on the time it didn’t actually have something to do with Topgolf per se. That was attractive, so we type of had that dialog and we have been capable of type a partnership round that. And so they took a type of huge leap on us. We didn’t actually have any actual traction of any kind. That was it. In order that they took a guess on us and we partnered, and we did it for the precise motive that you just’re saying, Ryan, we wished that legitimacy.
We figured one of the best ways for us to get some traction early is to have a accomplice the place we will put their model on there and there’s computerized model recognition, as a result of nobody has heard of our model. So we did that and we launched Professional Putt by Topgolf. That began to get some traction. We added the total Topgolf venue to the sport. We rebranded it as Topgolf with Professional Putt for the vacation of 2020. And after we had added the total swing, , Topgolf venue and we had the placing from Professional Putt, the primary request from our gamers was “are you able to not simply mix these and let me play [00:26:00] 9 holes of golf?”
On the time I keep in mind pondering like, “man, that sounds nice to me, however I don’t understand how many individuals really wanna play golf versus placing mini golf and Topgolf. Like, these are way more informal.” I’ve run into plenty of these type of crossroads of like, “alright, can we go this fashion or can we go that approach?” And apparently, even when each choices are fairly good, these are by far essentially the most demanding intervals of my startup journey. Is when you will have two good choices or two dangerous choices, however it’s a must to decide one. And you may’t do each. Anybody who tries to do each, that’s like assured failure for my part, particularly once you’re a younger startup. So that you, type of, have to select one and it’s simply actually demanding as a result of both one might fail, both one might work, you simply don’t actually know.
And in these moments, what has made it quite a bit simpler for me to get higher at making these selections is having began the enterprise understanding that I’m the core consumer of this. I’m the facility consumer. I’ve been enjoying golf my complete life, I like video video games, I like expertise.[00:27:00] I simply go together with which of those experiences am I gonna take pleasure in essentially the most? After which I’ve crafted a crew that additionally love golf and likewise love expertise. So, we’re capable of say, like, “which of those do we predict can be the, the most effective?” After which we’re, like, “okay nice, we’re gonna go in that course.” That approach, there’s kind of no remorse, as a result of now we have a system for making these selections. And we additionally know worst case, we’re gonna have enjoyable enjoying it. That’s gotta be price one thing.
So determined to go on this golf course after which develop the prototype of enjoying a gap of golf. Confirmed it to somebody on the PGA of America, they usually thought it was fairly cool. We had some traction, we had some fairly good opinions on the shop and we have been capable of shut the take care of the PGA of America. And that’s once we launched Golf+ and rebranded the entire expertise to Golf+, which was one other fairly huge guess on our half. Everybody we talked to at Oculus was like, “you guys have already rebranded as soon as, we advisable you didn’t try this the primary [00:28:00] time, we’re positively recommending you don’t do that the second time; you’re kind of taking Topgolf out of the title and also you’re placing Golf+ up there, nobody’s heard of Golf+. You’re gonna confuse all of your customers, da da, da.” We’re like, “yeah, that’s positive, however we’re gonna do it anyway. We actually assume it’s necessary that we begin constructing our model.”
And the best way that we’ve checked out plenty of selections, even now could be, in a 12 months or two the vast majority of our gamers are gonna be new. They’re not gonna know that it was known as Professional Putt, or Topgolf or no matter else it was. All they’re gonna know is what it’s like after they first acquired it. So we simply hold attempting to make selections with that understanding that almost all of our gamers, if we’re profitable, are gonna be new they usually gained’t know what selections we’ve made prior to now. If we predict we should always change one thing, as a result of it’ll be higher sooner or later, we should always change it now, as a result of we’re by no means gonna have fewer gamers than we do now. In order that’s type of been one other certainly one of our mindsets going into it.
However that’s how we acquired the primary two companions. And as soon as we acquired these two companions, and launched Golf+, and began to realize some traction and ended up like within the [00:29:00] prime promoting charts, each future dialog simply acquired quite a bit simpler.
Ryan DeLuca: We undergo the identical factor. It’s like we all know that at Black Field, like virtually all of our prospects or members over time are sooner or later. And so, we wish to be certain we care for those now we have now, however we’re actually pondering like now we have to make these sort of selections, now could be the time to do it and to construct that.
And I believe the opposite factor you mentioned that resonated was, once you first begin out as making a enterprise, all the recommendation is like, “don’t create it for you, do the main focus teams and, , be sure you create it for some, for the precise buyer that’s gonna be utilizing it.” You’re constructing it for your self, however you virtually get this recommendation and all these enterprise books not to try this. You recognize? However I really assume you’re completely proper. Like, should you’re constructing a product for what you need, for the appropriate causes of like, that is one thing that I would like, there’s most likely plenty of different folks on the market such as you.
And it’ll make it so that you’d have the ability to make higher product selections. You recognize, clearly that’s not all the time the case. Should you have been in some huge forms, , huge enterprise, most certainly that’s not the case. However in terms of issues like this, like, it’s gotta be ardour primarily based and, and that simply comes from that subjective feeling of that is what we would like.
Ryan Engle: Yeah, I believe we had a bit additional [00:30:00] validation, as a result of there are plenty of VR experiences on the market that our model knew have by no means existed earlier than. These new video games that, that might solely be performed in VR, or are simply kind of out of the field, like very inventive video games. And plenty of ’em have performed very well.
However I believe the problem that a lot of them have is that they’re simply actually laborious to market, as a result of it’s so laborious to grasp what it’s gonna really feel like once you’re doing it in VR. However for us, we’ve actually leaned into the truth that like, yeah, we’re golf. Like, that’s why the title’s Golf+. That is golf and thirty million folks in America play golf. So we all know that lots of people do love golf, so if we will simply, type of, persuade them that, like, , enjoying golf in VR feels just like enjoying golf in actual life, then we’re gonna go laborious on that type of advertising and marketing course. I believe that additionally created a little bit of confidence in let’s construct golf. You recognize, let’s construct it like golf feels.
Preston Lewis: That’s fascinating. You, type of, are constructing for your self, you’re this tremendous consumer. The advantage of that’s you possibly can, type of, shortcut plenty of [00:31:00] these focus teams and research you might need to run that, to your level, plenty of giant bureaucratic corporations are mandated to do. And I believe that’s the place the benefit is with startups, is that should you can strike that steadiness between the eagerness that makes you clearly work more durable, in addition to the fast iteration and having the ability to belief your intestine and never having to over validate, so to talk, you will get to market quicker and that’s when you possibly can really disrupt issues.
The second factor you mentioned that was fascinating was the One for One in every of golf. That’s one thing at Black Field VR that’s been tough for us is that now we have, it’s not like we will say, “oh yeah, , that like futuristic tower protection recreation folks play each Sunday?” It’s like, “what? What are you speaking about?” Proper? So that’s fascinating to have the ability to use one thing like golf as a bit of bit extra of a bridge to understanding the expertise. You recognize? In order that’s positively a bonus, I might see that as a bonus of what you guys are doing is having that in actual life [00:32:00] analog.
Ryan Engle: Yeah, I believe should you have a look at plenty of the highest experiences in VR, plenty of them do have that analog. I imply the sports activities ones are fairly apparent, however there’s boxing, basketball, the brand new soccer expertise and golf have all performed fairly nicely. Ping pong, or desk tennis, one other nice instance. All of them translate nicely. As quickly as you say “yeah, let’s play desk tennis in VR”, in my thoughts I can image precisely what that’s like. After which after I play it, it’s like, “wow, it’s really even higher than I anticipated.” Golf I believe is fairly comparable.
The opposite ones which have performed nicely, like shooter video games, you possibly can type of think about what it could be prefer to be a primary individual shooter. After which Beat Saber’s the one instance that is rather like a model new expertise. And I really feel prefer it’s performed extremely nicely, as a result of it’s one of many few VR experiences that, it’s acquired no buttons, proper? There aren’t any actual controls apart from hitting these items. And with the music, and the visible results and all the pieces, it movies actually, very well. You’ll be able to watch someone enjoying Beat Saber on like a display screen and [00:33:00] instantly see like, “this really appears superior and I wish to attempt it, and I instantly know tips on how to play it.”
I’ve a six 12 months outdated and I haven’t had him use VR a lot. He’s acquired loads of distractions anyway. However I did have him attempt Beat Saber and instantly he simply will get it and it’s such as you’re smashing the blocks. So, I really feel like that’s the one instance that has simply performed extremely nicely that breaks the mildew.
However a lot of the different prime experiences do have an IRL part, as a result of it’s simply a lot simpler to market. Particularly to individuals who might not have even tried VR but. And even to individuals who have tried VR; I’ll see a trailer for a recreation after which purchase the sport and check out it, and it’s like, “whoa, this was really nothing like what I had pictured in my head. It’s completely, completely completely different.” So I believe for anybody constructing stuff within the VR house, it’s simply so crucial to consider how are you going to market this to people who haven’t essentially tried VR or simply do not know what it’s prefer to be in your expertise. Even when meaning [00:34:00] simply specializing in one function of the broader expertise, with the intention to get them simply enthusiastic about, “oh okay, I get what it’s gonna be like to do that one recreation mechanic, this one motion”, no matter it’s. I believe that’s simply completely crucial, as a result of in any other case someone’s simply taking a pure gamble as a result of they actually do not know what it’s gonna be prefer to get within the expertise.
Preston Lewis: That type of makes me consider the entire “standing on the shoulders of giants” factor. And what I believe will profit everybody within the VR trade will probably be that momentum construct of the advertising and marketing. Proper? It’s, type of, like earlier than Uber, now you hear within the VC world, like “oh, it’s just like the Uber for delivery” or it’s the “such and such for this”. You recognize, these type of comparisons.
And now should you have a look at Supernatural, let’s simply say, you possibly can, type of, say “it’s Beat Saber with health”, a bit of bit? Proper? And in order that’s, I believe, the good factor for all of us, is that because the ecosystem grows, you’re proper, that schooling, that type of preliminary advertising and marketing price, so to talk, will at [00:35:00] least be a bit of bit simpler with the story storytelling.
And that’s, once more, one of many issues that we’ve actually needed to do with Black Field, is as a result of it’s such a brand new factor. However the good factor is now there’s all these new apps which are popping out the place we will begin to, type of, examine and make that narrative a bit of bit extra digestible for the typical consumer.
Ryan Engle: How would you describe it to somebody that’s new to VR or somebody that you just meet on the subway sort of a factor? Is there type of a one minute, like, that is what it’s?
Ryan DeLuca: That’s a terrific query. Principally we all the time say it’s resistance coaching, excessive depth interval coaching, virtually like CrossFit, however inside an eSport recreation.
And listening to what you’re saying, I believe it’s plenty of good classes for us, too, as a result of if something we’ve tried to, like, Future Forged even for farther than possibly we should always have. Like, it most likely would’ve been simpler.
We even mentioned on the very starting, we didn’t wanna create only a cardio expertise the place the primary thought you will have for making a VR or health recreation is, like, “oh, your headset in your coach’s standing proper there telling me what to do.” And we’re like, “nicely, that’s solely a bit of bit higher than having an precise coach or watching a [00:36:00] it on the display screen.” We wished to go the entire subsequent stage of let’s use all these, like, superior recreation mechanics, as a result of the issue that we’re actually attempting to resolve greater than something is adherence. Like, getting folks to stay to their health program. As a result of we’d all the time say at, like, BodyBuilding.com, “we misplaced most of our prospects to the sofa.” To not one other competitor or one thing else. And the way can we get folks to stick? And video video games are simply so good at that, and also you don’t even know why that you’ve got that itch, that compulsion to maintain coming again. So it’s an fascinating factor.
Like, a part of it’s now we have to be sure you get the correct quantity of train, and the appropriate sort of train. So it’s efficient and it really offers you outcomes. However we additionally, extra importantly, need it to be one thing the place you simply wished to proceed to return again, and also you’re utilizing all these recreation mechanics to try this. So if something, we’ve taken it to a stage that makes it extra complicated. Someone’s gotta let you know like, “hey, no, you gotta come do this factor, let me carry you in.” As a result of there’s plenty of friction. Much more for us, having bodily areas, the place folks have to return in, they will’t simply attempt it at residence.
Ryan Engle: Yeah. I really feel like health is such a troublesome one, as a result of it’s such a aggressive house. However I’m personally so bullish on VR health as a class, [00:37:00] as a result of after I was youthful I favored going to the fitness center and I favored setting new PR’s, and I favored pushing myself. And as I grow old, I don’t like going to the fitness center as a lot. I like enjoying sports activities, pickleball and stuff. Like, I like burning energy that approach. I’m going to the fitness center, as a result of I do know I ought to and I’ve to, and I do know it’ll make me really feel higher. Not as a result of I wish to go.
I really feel like good advertising and marketing for somebody like me, all I actually care about is the comfort and the time issue. Like this concept of seven minute abs sort of a factor. It’s like, “oh, that’s fascinating, I’ve acquired seven minutes day-after-day. And I can do it from residence? Like, incredible. Alright, who doesn’t need abs for seven minutes?” For me, after I’m taking a look at that stuff, I’m type of simply taking a look at how easy is it? What’s the promise? And what’s the time dedication? Since, with the spouse and children and enterprise and stuff, time is such a giant issue now.
Preston Lewis: That’s a terrific level. I imply, that’s been the enjoyable factor about this journey is like studying what these issues are that resonate with folks. Proper? In order you talked about earlier than, now we have after all our type of intestine instincts so far as what we might need within the expertise. [00:38:00] And plenty of the stuff you simply talked about come up after which folks resonate with. Health is such a tough type of nut to crack. You recognize, individuals are simply determined for an answer, proper?
Whether or not it’s the time stuff that you just talked about, like fixing the effectivity and the time stuff. Or it’s simply straight up intimidation going into the fitness center, proper? And so we’ve discovered folks resonating with the privateness of the cubicles, folks resonating with the information that comes via, as a result of we’re monitoring like 50,000 knowledge factors of exercise. We simply had, what was it? A 90 day transformation, the place we had two guys undergo, and one of many guys his largest worth he acquired from it was the time effectivity, as a result of they solely did three exercises, each exercise’s solely thirty minutes. Thirty minute type of aggressive battle. So ninety minutes every week for ninety days, and he misplaced like thirty kilos, placed on like virtually ten kilos of lean mass, like insane stuff.
So that’s the type of enjoyable facet of it, is to type of see, as you talked about earlier than, having these intestine instincts and seeing ’em really show out with folks. However for us proper now, it’s, it’s a pair completely different buckets, proper? [00:39:00] Whether or not it’s effectivity, or knowledge or…however yeah, very fascinating.
Ryan DeLuca: And it’s fascinating, too, such as you’re saying is all people is aware of they need to work out. Just like the story you simply mentioned about, it is best to do it, you don’t wanna do it. I imply, that’s mainly what all people says, ” and we’re busy and I was in higher form, however it’s like I haven’t had as a lot time and I’m off the plan.”
It’s an fascinating factor, as a result of it’s like ninety seven % of individuals understand how necessary train is and assume they should do it. Whereas, actually, one thing like three or 4 % of individuals really do it. The advisable period of time. Like, they really monitor it with exercise trackers versus simply asking them.
And so it’s this bizarre factor, however all people needs to do it. Nearly no person’s doing it, and we simply haven’t solved that but as a society, like how to try this. That’s the place we actually assume that the sport ideas are available in that may make that distinction.
Ryan Engle: Yeah, we’re type of operating into one thing comparable with Golf+, proper?
As a result of about half of our gamers both don’t play golf, or they solely play like a couple of times a 12 months, after which the opposite half play fairly frequently. Since a lot of the firm now are golfers, and like, I’ve been enjoying golf my complete life, it’s straightforward to overlook what it’s prefer to be a newbie. And to [00:40:00] not know all the main points or not know why it is best to follow placing, or not even know tips on how to hit the ball ,or what a stroke is like and what these golf phrases are. And since a lot of the crew has performed the sport a ton, they usually love golf and all the pieces, it’s very easy for us to over-index on constructing issues that the facility customers would love to make use of, however are fully international to new folks.
It was actually necessary for us to type of set up our mission as an organization. To assist us prioritize these items. And the mission for us is we wish to develop the sport of golf by making it extra accessible. That’s so simple as it will get.
Quite a lot of golf corporations have that mission, however we firmly imagine that with this expertise we will really obtain it, as a result of we will make golf ten occasions cheaper, ten occasions quicker, ten occasions simpler to get began simply when it comes to like ability. And with that in thoughts, it’s so necessary for us to deal with that fifty % of individuals which are just about model new to the game, as a result of now we have to get them… if our objective is to develop [00:41:00] golf, then it doesn’t really matter if we’re simply taking golfers and getting them to play extra golf. To develop golf, we wish to develop the variety of folks which are enjoying golf. So utilizing that mission, we actually have a look at our options and we are saying, “is that this gonna have an effect on energy customers or is that this gonna have an effect on new customers?”
And we’ve been attempting to do a extremely good job of prioritizing the issues that we predict are gonna impression new customers, as a result of our pure tendency is to construct the options that we might use essentially the most, however we’re the hardcore energy customers. That’s been one other nice forcing perform for us, is to simply actually perceive who is that this function for and the way is somebody even gonna know that this function exists? As a result of because the app grows, you will have so many new options and if somebody can’t uncover it, then they’re by no means going to make use of it, regardless of how nice it’s.
So we’ve been pondering extra about how can we message these items? How can we let folks learn about all of the options which are out there? How can we make buyer help higher and create a neighborhood, in order that when you’ve got a query you don’t simply should ask us, however you possibly can ask the neighborhood.[00:42:00]
Preston Lewis: Large. That’s big.
Ryan DeLuca: I believe on that word, what sort of suggestions do you get from folks. Trigger such as you mentioned, it’s straightforward, we’re all on that type of identical factor, we’re so near it that it’s laborious to grasp it from a brand new participant perspective. However what sort of suggestions have you ever gotten from gamers that shocked you? And like what sort of issues do they like essentially the most in regards to the recreation? As a result of clearly it’s the precise transferability of the talents from VR golf to actual golf. After which there’s the aggressive facet, like multiplayer or leaderboard or simply mastery facet.
Total, what’s been the kind of suggestions you get that folks like essentially the most and what’s shocked you?
Ryan Engle: I believe what’s been actually shocking and inspiring to us is the variety of people who attain out and are like, “actually I had no real interest in golf, however my buddy satisfied me to purchase this recreation. I’ve been enjoying it day-after-day. I simply purchased my first set of golf equipment and I’m going to the driving vary and I’m getting classes and I’m gonna go play my first spherical of golf.” Together with messages from people who find themselves like, “I used to play golf a ton, however I type of cease enjoying for no matter motive. And now that I’m enjoying this, it jogged my memory how enjoyable golf is, so I’m going to play once more.” And [00:43:00] these are the messages that imply essentially the most to me, as a result of the best way that we have a look at it’s there’s the golf pie and we’re not attempting to take folks from enjoying on the right track golf to play VR golf, and like exchange on the right track golf with VR golf.
The best way we have a look at it, all the pieces grows the pie. The extra you watch golf, the extra you play golf, the extra you play VR golf, the extra you play golf. The extra you’re serious about golf, the extra you’re gonna play golf. And I believe health might be precisely the identical factor. It’s not a query of “if I do cardio, I’m not gonna do weights. Or if I do weights, then I’m not gonna do cardio. I wanna be well-rounded, so the extra I do cardio, the extra I wanna do weights, the extra I wish to eat proper.” And that’s what is important.
So we have a look at golf the identical approach, the place it’s like our final objective is to get extra folks to play golf in actual life.
As a result of that’s the top. What now we have in VR I believe is nice. I play much more VR golf than actual golf, however there’s no substitute for being on the market on the course in actual life. Hitting an actual golf ball with mates with good climate. [00:44:00] That’s the pinnacle of it. And each time I’m going out and play a spherical, I’m reminded of how wonderful that have is. And for me, Golf+ is simply pleasant reminders between my rounds that, sure, golf is nice. Subsequent time you will have a six hour block that you could take, go play golf as a result of it’s nice. So I believe all of the messages surrounding which are nice.
After which, we do get some humorous suggestions too. Like, it’s simply humorous to see all of the completely different folks which are coming into VR and we actually attempt to work on our onboarding expertise to make it as seamless as doable. However , it’s positively not excellent but. You all the time attempt to make it so easy, as a result of each step there’s gonna be a bit of little bit of drop off, as a result of someone doesn’t know tips on how to do one thing. And certainly one of our steps, we wished to point out the controller fairly early on and be like, “listed here are all of the buttons on the controller and right here’s what they do. Okay, nice, when you’re prepared, click on the proceed button to maneuver ahead. And on the display screen in entrance of you, there’s this huge inexperienced Proceed button. It’s the one button on the display screen.” And we acquired an e mail from [00:45:00] somebody who’s like, “I’m on the Controller step, and it’s telling me to hit the proceed button, and I’m trying on my controller and there’s no proceed button anyplace. I see the grip button, I see the set off button, I see the A button, the B button. However there’s no proceed button on this controller.” And it’s like, “it says Proceed. It’s on the display screen, it’s proper in entrance of you.” And stuff like that simply makes you snigger, as a result of it’s like, ” alright, subsequent model we’re simply gonna have arrows which are fully round you pointing on the Proceed button to say that is what it’s.”
However I believe feedback like that truly simply type of reminds you of how early we’re on this journey, the place the truth that the buttons in your controller are known as buttons and the buttons on a display screen are known as buttons, creates confusion for some folks, as a result of they’re simply so unfamiliar with this new terrain.
Feedback like that remind us that we will’t make this too easy. If we predict it’s easy now we should always return to the drafting board and acknowledge that for some folks that is nonetheless essentially the most complicated factor on the earth.
Preston Lewis: Early on, in our onboarding, we needed to even put little [00:46:00] “faucet me” buttons round a room, as a result of we might have somebody put the earphone up and we’d say, “hey, go forward and step ahead and hit that Affirmation button.” And they’d simply, like, type of, attain out for it. You recognize? And we’re like, “no, no, go forward and take a bodily step ahead.” And so it’s fascinating, it’s such, it’s such early days. I imply, in a 12 months or two or perhaps a couple months, possibly that’s not gonna be a factor. However it’s loopy to consider the patterns which are wanted this early. Yeah. Good level.
Alright, Ryan. Superior. That was so nice to listen to these solutions. Thanks a lot. We acquired a bunch of different nice inquiries to ask you that I do know our viewers would love to listen to. So we’ll meet once more for a component two and ask you these different questions.
Ryan Engle: Nice. Thanks Preston.
Ryan DeLuca: I’m going {golfing}.
Preston Lewis: Thanks for listening to the VR Health Insider podcast. Have you learnt of anybody that must be on our present or have suggestions? Don’t overlook to e mail us at podcast vr health insider.com and comply with us at VR Health Insider on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube. You may also be part of our Discord channel. Till subsequent time, hold creating and dreaming up the subsequent huge factor that can [00:47:00] revolutionize the world of health.
