You’ve done everything from IBM Watson, to Google, to HTC, Samsung. and one of my friends who I just made by being nerdy, worked for a company called HTC. The advantage that something like a Magic Leap or even an Oculus Quest has is that it’s tracking you with cameras. What an amazing piece of technology.

And I think there’s one in Chicago, mass VR that’s on that scale, too. Alan: Well, speaking of cell phone guys, you’ve got HTC as a major player.
