| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Almost Here, Round the Corner of Future Technology Podcasts with Richard Jacobs. |
| 0:07.0 | Future Technologies always to transform our lives for better or worse are the focus of this podcast. |
| 0:13.0 | Almost here means these technologies are now here and starting to be used. |
| 0:18.0 | We're just around the corner. |
| 0:19.0 | From Bitcoin to artificial intelligence, 3D around the corner, from Bitcoin to artificial intelligence, |
| 0:22.0 | 3D printing, blockchain, virtual reality, and more. |
| 0:26.1 | Hi, this is Richard Jacobs from Future Tech Podcast, almost here around the corner technologies. |
| 0:32.1 | Today I have Shane Scranton, the founder of Iris VR, Iris Virtual Reality. |
| 0:37.7 | Shane, how you doing? |

| 0:42.1 | Yeah, if you wouldn't mind, just let listeners know in the VR space what Iris is doing. |
| 0:48.0 | Absolutely. So we are focused primarily on VR right now in architecture, construction, and engineering. |
