This week, a curious hire opportunity appeared over at Samsung, just in time for its concurrent augmented reality/mixed reality headset push. Specifically, the role is filling an XR Director gap at Samsung Research America as part of the division’s MPS (Mobile Platform Services), SRA, and Immersive Experiences (IMEX) Team.
Samsung Eyes XR Director Hire This week, an interesting job opportunity surfaced at Samsung, coinciding with its push into augmented reality and mixed reality headsets. This effort aims to create next-generation head-mounteddisplays and “intelligent glasses.”
Now, price can mean a couple of different things, but ultimately when you’re spending $1,500 or $2,000 to put a brand new tower PC under your desk and you’re tethering it to the back of your head through a headmounteddisplay […] that’s a lot of money. These guys have invested billions.
Secretive augmented-reality start-up MagicLeap is partnering with online comic book publisher Madefire to deliver mixed reality comics to MagicLeap’s devices when they launch. The MagicLeap version will apparently feature spatial sound and comics will appear much crisper and more readable on it.
Right now we’re stuck thinking in terms of head-mounteddisplays (HMDs), like the Vive or the Oculus. Future solutions will get rid of clunky wired headsets and move onto glasses that can project a high-definition image onto the eye, a la MagicLeap, and eventually contact lenses that contain tiny screens.
Of course, anybody who has a warehouse can be hugely benefited, because you take the functionality of that pad, the barcode, the RF gun, and you put it all in a head-mounteddisplay. MagicLeap a lot of great people running off doing different things. Those are the kinds of apps that MagicLeap wants to enable.
