Is Wearability the Next Mobility?

AR Insider

Visually immersive and contextually-aware AR glasses like Magic Leap One and Hololens 2 require optics whose power consumption and heat dissipation necessitate bulky headgear, rather than anything you’d consider “eyewear.”. Applying that principle back to AR, could wearability be the next era’s mobility? Design Target.

A Tech Investor’s Take on the Apple Vision Pro

ARPost

While this device first piqued Almeida’s interest in the future of XR wearables, he doesn’t think that it’s the real spiritual predecessor of consumer XR. The real pioneers of this are definitely Magic Leap and their waveguide lens is the future that I was expecting Apple to actually achieve some kind of breakthrough on,” said Almeida.
