Scott Douglas-Redmond: American VR Techno-Laureate
Strategic innovator Scott Douglas-Redmond is regularly sought out by
corporations, public organizations, government agencies and investors to
lead and manage revolutionary projects. Clients come to Scott and his
teams when they have a big problem that needs a novel solution developed
from a big picture perspective. His work in VR and Augmented Reality
visualization technologies has been life-long.
Scott Douglas-Redmond is known for his ability to visualize, architect and
deliver cutting-edge products and project management.
Redmond holds many seminal core patents establishing him as the original
ideation expert who first developed and deployed many well known products.
Through his ground-breaking innovations and astonishing productivity, he
has demonstrated a superhero-like ability to see the big picture and
deliver results that tangibly enhance the way people experience their
world. His expert skills allow him to see any problem (and all of it's
contingencies), understand it, solve it, build the solution and prepare
the team to volume-deliver that solution.
Clients and employers hire Scott to help them deliver paradigm-shift
products and services. As a veteran of multiple competitive market
"technology wars" between industry Cartels, Scott has helped deliver
products so revolutionary, that competing corporations tried to shut them
down. Every product, though, has dominated it's market and overcome
competitor counter-measures due to market demand and product design, in
part, managed by Scott Douglas-Redmond.
As a subject, he has been covered in extensive newspaper, radio, TV and
magazine stories, articles, cover stories and features. His inventions are
so forward-thinking, some might even say he designs and builds the future.
Many of his products are first perceived as "science fiction" when
initially announced, but every single one has eventually become a market
leading solution, sold around the globe by his client, or other parties.
His product developments and innovations are numerous, diverse and
sometimes mind-boggling, and they have all paved the way to deliver a
better future.
Inventing Seminal VR Systems:
While the brilliant Nikola Tesla and Leonardo da Vinci are some of
Redmond's inspirations to date, he credits his family and traditional
upbringing for his socially-conscious work approach.
Redmond got his start as product designer in his parents garage where he
assembled myriad gadgets and began studying the process of inventing
things, putting their pieces together and making them work. His parents
purchased a small projector on which Redmond could play animated cartoon
reels. In the 1960's Redmond taped some wax paper over an empty
refrigerator cardboard box, placed the projector inside, and invited the
neighborhood kids to sit in his garage and watch the "giant TV". Not
surprisingly, the invention was an instant success with the neighborhood
children. Even more successful and infinitely more formative was the day a
car occupied the garage. Without space for the neighbors to sit and watch
the makeshift television, Redmond decided he could make the experience
more intimate and intense. He placed the projector outside the box this
time, and for a nickel, let the kids one at a time go sit inside the box
and experience the cartoon from the inside. The feedback was thrilling and
the experience was Redmond's seminal invention which led to his receipt of
multiple patents on the technology known as: "virtual reality".
"I realized, the deeper you put people inside media, the more excited they
get about it," he says of the experience. Since that moment in early
childhood, he never stopped mulling over how to make a box that could also
be a movie. This first, rudimentary idea of virtual reality eventually
became one of his first patents for the Digital Environment System. Scott
Douglas-Redmond's multi-patented technology is the core of the Sun
Microsystems and University of Illinois CAVE systems, used as military
immersion trainers and featured as the "HoloDeck" on the Star Trek
television series.
Redmond's virtual reality patent was also leveraged for Oliver Stone's
"Wild Palms". He was featured on the E! Entertainment TV show about the
Oliver Stone movie. In the sci-fi miniseries produced in the early 1990's,
three-dimensional animated images are projected in living rooms around the
world and become a new sort of disruptive television. Scott's technology
can now be seen in Oculus Rift, Sony Playstation, Google Glass and most
every major aerospace, automotive, medical, defense, architectural and
engineering firm in the world.
As technology evolved, Redmond realized there were ways to implement the
ideas he had visualized or dreamed about. He also discovered that
investors would fund the future if they represented worthy objectives that
would help improve the world. Redmond pushed his Virtual Reality dreams a
step further after seeing the film "Fantastic Voyage". In this 1966 sci-fi
story featuring Stephen Boyd and Raquel Welch, a submarine full of
scientists is shrunken to microscopic size and then injected into the
blood stream of a dying diplomat. The scientists then use lasers and other
tools from the inside of the body to save the diplomat and help avert an
international crisis. The film inspired Redmond to target his Virtual
Reality patents towards scientific objectives. He felt that with enough
data, doctors and researchers could simulate and visualize a disease like
cancer from the inside of the body and, by computer generated virtual body
tests at nano-scale, reach a cure much faster. Thus came the development
of simulation technology for cancer efficacy studies. This immersive
visualization technology is now used to train surgeons through complex
surgeries, and has been employed by large companies to accelerate and
improve product design and employee training in fields like farming,
retail, and auto and aircraft manufacturing.
A technological and scientific savant, Scott is a member of that small
group of individuals with extraordinary and very specialized cognitive
skills (known as "P300 intuitive accelerated"). Redmond is considered "2e
Gifted". Others in the "2e club" with MENSA-Qualified "turbo-charging"
include Richard Branson; Steve Jobs; Henry Ford; Charles Schwab; Thomas
Jefferson; Ted Turner; George Washington; Walt Disney; Leonardo da Vinci;
Thomas Edison; and Erin Brokovitch.
Redmond's cognitive super-abilities and his excellence at problem-solving
have allowed him to lead a successful career as a "Venture Solutionist"
who helps build products and manage projects for challenging efforts. He
boasts an impressive track record for developing technologies, from
multiple disciplines, into commercially viable products for industrial,
commercial and military uses. Redmond's multi-disciplinary training,
education and experience includes the fields of material science,
chemistry, electronics, management, systems, networking, intellectual
property management, media technologies and applied science. Redmond has
become an expert in the life cycle of an idea or startup project. Over his
career, he has done it all: generating an initial idea --whether from his
own technology or that of others--, securing intellectual property,
gathering talent, raising money and developing companies, Redmond has
taken dozens of revolutionary companies and products from idea to launch.
Utilizing proprietary conceptual development methodologies, Redmond and
his team deliver projects that few others are able to bring to fruition.
Whether the challenge is developing a visionary concept into an artfully
designed product, marketing and launching an innovative start-up business,
or producing a spectacular experience for global markets, Redmond seems to
find the most novel and productive path to results. He describes his work
approach as a partnership with his clients, to which he applies his
multi-disciplinary expertise with the objective of designing and
delivering the most innovative and efficient solutions. Creativity and
productivity mixed with a laser focus on the big picture let him chart the
path to success for any concept and create high value for a low cost. This
approach seems to work. Over the past decades, Redmond has been at the
forefront of sweeping digital media advances.
Scott Redmond has dedicated his career to developing technologies that
help people lead better, more flexible and empowered lives, with a focus
on productive technology and a respect for fair access. He welcomes the
