En la edición de hoy del Radar Empresarial, ponemos la lupa sobre la estrategia de Meta en el terreno de las gafas inteligentes. Según información de Bloomberg, la empresa ha adquirido un 3% de participación en Essilor Luxottica, el gigante europeo de lentes, por un monto de 3.500 millones de dólares. Esta inversión refuerza una alianza que se remonta al año 2019, cuando ambas compañías comenzaron a trabajar en conjunto para desarrollar un dispositivo tecnológico innovador y de alto impacto comercial. Fruto de esa colaboración, en septiembre de 2021 se lanzaron las Ray-Ban Stories. Estas gafas, presentadas por entonces Facebook, permitían grabar vídeos, hacer fotos, contestar llamadas y escuchar música, marcando un antes y un después. Aunque Google y Snapchat ya habían incursionado en este sector con sus Google Glass y Snap Spectacles, respectivamente, ninguna ofrecía la posibilidad de grabar llamadas, lo que convirtió a las Stories en un éxito, vendiendo 300.000 unidades en dos años. En 2023, Meta presentó una versión más avanzada: las Ray-Ban Meta. Este modelo incorporó mejoras significativas en altavoces, cámara y controles táctiles. Sin embargo, la gran novedad fue su integración con el chip Qualcomm Snapdragon, que permitía el uso de inteligencia artificial. Aunque en ese momento la IA aún no tenía el protagonismo bursátil actual, Meta ya apostaba por ella como motor clave de futuro. En medio de la feroz competencia por liderar el desarrollo de la IA, Meta ha invertido grandes recursos en talento y estructura. Recientemente, según Bloomberg News, Ruoming Pang, jefe de IA de Apple, se ha unido a Meta. Además, la empresa ha reorganizado su unidad de inteligencia artificial bajo el nombre de Meta Superintelligence Labs, liderada por Alexandr Wang, ex CEO de Scale AI. Por otro lado, se rumorea que Meta podría elevar su participación en Essilor Luxottica al 5%. Además, ha cerrado un acuerdo con Oakley para lanzar unas nuevas gafas inteligentes, las Oakley Meta HSTN, con el desafío de replicar el éxito de las Ray-Ban Meta, que ya han superado los dos millones de unidades vendidas.

In this episode, Joshua To, VP of Product Design at Meta, shares how AI is reshaping how—and where—we interact with technology. He walks us through Meta's evolving approach to AR and wearables, why notifications are still the killer use case, and how AI is becoming the “brain behind empathy.”We dig into what it means to build interfaces that understand you, why audio might be the future's most underrated platform, and how designing for emotion changes everything—from form factor to function. Joshua also reflects on his path from launching a clothing brand to leading design at Google and Meta, and what those worlds taught him about craft, context, and human-centered systems.This one's for anyone designing AI into the real world—where every interface choice carries weight, and intelligence starts with listening.Key takeaways: Empathy Is the Real Intelligence — Joshua flips the definition of smart tech. It's not just about outputs—it's about understanding you. Context, tone, emotion—that's what great AI will sense and respond to.Design for the Moment, Not the Feed — AR's killer use case isn't games—it's restraint. Joshua shares why the best AI product might just be the one that knows not to ping you. Context-aware computing is the real unlock.Audio Is the Interface to Watch — Forget screens. The most powerful interface might be your ears. From wearables to ambient signals, Joshua explains why audio design is the next big frontier for human-centered AI.AR Isn't a Feature—It's a System of Consideration — Joshua reframes augmented reality as quiet, ambient infrastructure. The real power of AR isn't spectacle—it's subtlety. It helps you move through the world with less friction, not more.LinkedIn: Joshua To | LinkedInWebsite: Home - Joshua ToMeta: Meta Careers00:00 Intro: Fixing Notifications With AI00:54 Meet Josh: VP of Product Design at Meta02:06 From Hoodies to Hardware: Josh's Journey03:53 The Google Experience: From Ads to Product Management10:37 The Evolution of Google Glass and AR19:12 The Role of AI in Josh's Career22:25 Designing the Future: AR, VR, and Attention Management32:49 Contextually Aware Suggestions33:38 Leveraging Generative AI in Design34:52 AI's Role in Concept Art and Storyboarding41:24 AI Tools and Model Capabilities45:54 The Future of AI and Wearables51:58 Reflections and Takeaways

En el Google I/O se presentaron un montón de novedades de Inteligencia artificial, y los nuevos lentes de Google nos dieron recuerdos del pasado de Google Glass. Y Jony Ive, el legendario diseñador de Apple, ahora se junta con Open AI para hacer el siguiente dispositivo del futuro.

No episódio dessa semana, nossos hosts ⁠Arthur⁠ e ⁠Aíquis⁠ discutem uma das semanas mais INTENSAS do ano no mundo da inteligência artificial e tecnologia, cobrindo lançamentos e anúncios feitos pela:AnthropicGoogleMicrosoftOpenAI. Descubra as novidades do Gemini 2.5, a chegada do Claude 4, as inovações no Copilot da Microsoft e o impacto potencial da aquisição da empresa de design do lendário Jony Ive pela OpenAI.#JABÁASSINATURA DA ARENA COM R$150 OFF:Acesso a TODOS cursos, eventos, encontros da comunidade, além de sorteio TODA SEMANA:⁠⁠ASSINE AQUI⁠#JABÁ 2Programa de mentoria para lideranças de produto⁠PRÉ-INSCRIÇÃO COHORT Q3#Chapters:00:00 - Introdução03:59 - Destaques dos Lançamentos de AI08:31 - Lock-in das plataformas: Google, Microsoft e OpenAI09:47 - Anthropic, Claude 4 e o System Card11:19 - Google I/O e o Gemini17:39 - Será que teremos o retorno do Google Glass?22:53 - Microsoft Build26:12 - Onde Google, OpenAI, Anthropic e Microsoft vão se posicionar na "batalha de AI"?30:05 - OpenAI, John Ivy e Codex.33:40 - Insights para Product Managers38:15 - Google e o lançamento de produtos39:38 - Produtos da SemanaPRODUTOS DA SEMANANotebookLMImposto de Renda 2025 (3x)Claude 4 (2x)WhatsApp (ligações em grupo)eBay (Price Chart)PokéflixBlablacarSpeeechifyGeminiChatGPTUltra GásTestFlightWindSurfGameBoy AdvancedGoogle Docs

Dans cet échange, Jérôme Colombain et Bruno Guglielminetti reviennent sur les nombreuses annonces de Google lors de sa conférence développeurs. Dominée par l'IA, la keynote a peu évoqué Android, mettant en avant Gemini. Autre fait marquant : les nouvelles lunettes connectées de Google, vues comme une réinvention des Google Glass. Colombain souligne aussi la traduction en temps réel sur Google Meet et les avancées en vidéo générée par IA avec Veo 3, qui posent la question du vrai et du faux à l'ère numérique. Les deux collègues discutent également de l'acquisition de l'entreprise de design fondée par Jony Ive par OpenAI et de son rôle dans la création d'un futur appareil vocal sans écran.

OpenAI just made its biggest acquisition yet, scooping up Jony Ive and Sam Altman's secretive device startup, io, in a $6.5 billion all-equity deal. Ive, the legendary designer behind the iPhone and other iconic Apple products, will now lead creative and design work at OpenAI through his firm LoveFrom. The goal? To take AI “beyond the screen” and build a new generation of AI-powered consumer devices. Beyond the tech, there's a clear narrative play here. OpenAI is framing Altman as the Jobs-esque visionary and Ive as the design genius who makes it all real. Social media had a field day with the staged buddy shots of the duo, but the messaging is hard to miss: Take the iPhone launch, and make it AI. Today, on TechCrunch's Equity podcast, hosts Kirsten Korosec, Max Zeff, and Anthony Ha unpack the deal, dive into AI wearables, and discuss more of this week's tech headlines. Listen to the full episode to hear about: Max's inside scoop from Google I/O: the return of Google Glass and developers' reactions to Google's AI-powered search upgrades Luminar drama from layoffs to CEO step downs and the lidar startup's potential $200 million fundraising effort 23andMe's second life, and what the company's new buyer plans to do with users' DNA data Equity will be back next week, so don't miss it!

Het moederbedrijf van Google, Alphabet komt met een aanvalsplan om bedrijven als OpenAI van ChatGPT te verslaan. Alphabet komt met een speciale ‘AI-modus’ voor Google, die volgens ceo Sundar Pichai 'een nieuw tijdperk van zoeken' inluidt. In plaats van een lijst met links, kun je een gesprek voeren met de zoekmachine en doorvragen. Dat scheelt een hoop klikken, maar vergeet Google niet dat gebruikers zo ook een stuk minder advertenties tegenkomen? En juist dáár verdient Google nu veel geld mee. En we hebben het over een nieuw plan van de Europese Commissie, dat daarmee een zoveelste poging doet om relevant te blijven. Het wil de op-twee-na grootste economie van de wereld nieuw leven inblazen, met het wegnemen van door handelsbarrières en het terugdringen van het aantal regels. Helemaal nu het in een handelsoorlog verwikkeld is met z'n belangrijkste bondgenoot: Amerika. Zakendoen met andere EU-landen moet makkelijker en vooral goedkoper worden. Het is de zoveelste keer dat Europa de interne markt probeert aan te zwengelen, steeds met weinig echt succes. Deze aflevering bespreken we of dit plan wel kans van slagen heeft. We kijken naar de stijgende olieprijs, door geruchten over een Israëlische aanval op Iran. En Nvidia-topman Jensen Huang haalt uit naar Donald Trump en zijn heffingen: hij noemt de Amerikaanse exportbeperkingen voor AI-chips naar China een 'mislukking', meldt de Financial Times. Als argument noemt Huang het gedaalde marktaandeel van Nvidia op de Chinese markt. En we bespreken het aandeel UnitedHealth, dat alweer lager staat, door weer een nieuw schandaal. Beleggers vinden al die onrust helemaal niets.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Fa dies que saben que el 9 de juny apple fa la seva posada de llarg amb totes les novetats de software,però ahir vam tenir la Google i/O 2025, que ens ha deixat clar que la intel·ligència artificial és el centre de la seva estratègia: Gemini evoluciona amb funcions que la fan gairebé omnipresent, des de la traducció de veu en temps real fins a veure i entendre el món al nostre voltant.  Google també ha presentat Jules, una IA per programar de forma autònoma, Flow per crear vídeos, i el Modo IA perrevolucionar la cerca web, no fos cas que ChatGPT li passes davant. A més, tornen les Google Glass amb Android XR i una nova eina permet “provar-se” roba amb IA. Tot plegat marca un pas cap a una IA més integrada i creativa que mai.  I en l'apartat de l'entrevista avui parlarem de la Sonda Rovello projecte dels alumnes del institut Joan Oró que després de dos anys s'ha recuperant amb dades intactes de més de 30km d'altitud.Tant com si sou amants de la tecnologia o interessats del futur immediat  esteu en la millor sintonia. Però primer un moment per saber d'on venim i per això en David ens porta l'efemèride.

Google estrena AI Mode y reinventa las búsquedas en internet, presenta gafas inteligentes y agentes que compran solos: Por Félix Riaño @LocutorCo  Buscar en la web va a cambiar más de lo que imaginamos. AI Mode ya aparece en Estados Unidos como una pestaña dentro del cuadro de Google y pronto va a llegar a más países. La función conversa como una experta, divide preguntas en partes pequeñas y responde en voz clara. Google también presentó unas nuevas gafas inteligentes desarrolladas junto a Warby Parker y Gentle Monster, que traducen en vivo, guían en la calle y hasta ayudan a hacer compras sin usar las manos. Todo funciona con Gemini 2.5, la inteligencia que ya procesa quinientos billones de instrucciones por mes. El reto ahora es entender si esto nos va a facilitar la vida o si, por el contrario, nos deja con menos control. ¿Cómo nos va a afectar a quienes hablamos español y usamos Google todos los días para trabajar, estudiar o simplemente encontrar el mejor lugar donde comer?  Menos clics en las páginas web pueden afectar miles de empleos. Imagina que escribes en Google: “restaurantes abiertos cerca de mí con buena comida y parqueadero fácil”. Con AI Mode, no ves la lista tradicional de enlaces, sino una conversación. La IA te pregunta si prefieres algo rápido o para sentarte a comer tranquilo, y si quieres comida colombiana, mexicana o italiana. Toma en cuenta tus búsquedas anteriores, los lugares donde has estado con Google Maps y, si diste permiso, hasta tus reservas pasadas en Gmail. Luego arma una respuesta con dos o tres opciones: muestra fotos del lugar, tiempo estimado para llegar, si hay mesas disponibles, precios en tu moneda y comentarios recientes. Todo eso sin salir de la página de resultados. Liz Reid, la jefa de búsqueda de Google, dice que AI Overviews, el sistema que muestra estos resúmenes automáticos, ya se usa en más de cuarenta idiomas y en más de doscientos países. Son más de mil quinientos millones de personas cada mes. Pero tanta eficiencia trae consecuencias. Editores de medios en Bogotá, Lima o Buenos Aires temen que el lector ya no llegue a su página. Si la IA responde todo en el primer pantallazo, ¿quién va a leer el artículo completo? Y si nadie entra, nadie ve la publicidad. Eso pone en riesgo los ingresos de medios digitales pequeños y también los empleos de periodistas. Lo mismo pasa con pequeños negocios. Si no tienen su menú bien organizado en línea o no aparecen con datos claros, es probable que la IA ni siquiera los muestre. Además, AI Mode pronto va a usar, si el usuario lo permite, datos personales como correos en Gmail o eventos en el calendario. Con eso puede sugerir restaurantes antes de una reunión o mostrar rutas al aeropuerto según tu vuelo. Todo suena útil, pero los defensores de la privacidad ya están preocupados: ¿dónde queda el límite? ¿Quién decide qué datos se usan y cuándo? Google dice que quiere mantener el equilibrio. AI Mode incluye controles de privacidad para pausar personalización, borrar historial y revisar qué información se está usando. Además, muestra enlaces directos a las fuentes, para que el usuario pueda leer más si quiere. También presentó Deep Search, una función que lanza cientos de búsquedas internas para armar informes completos. Ideal para estudiantes o periodistas que necesitan contexto rápido. Las nuevas gafas Android XR también hacen parte de esta transformación. Son cómodas, modernas y capaces de traducir en tiempo real, tomar fotos y mostrar direcciones sin usar las manos. Sergey Brin, cofundador de Google, confesó que cometió muchos errores con las primeras Google Glass, pero esta vez la apuesta va en serio. Google va a invertir ciento cincuenta millones de dólares en Warby Parker para lanzar modelos con y sin fórmula óptica a partir de 2026. Y la idea no es competir con celulares, sino complementarlos. Las gafas funcionan junto al teléfono y permiten interactuar con la IA en cualquier momento.  Gemini ya tiene más de cuatrocientos millones de usuarios activos. Google dice que con AI Mode y las nuevas gafas, la búsqueda va a pasar de ser un acto puntual a un acompañamiento constante. Por ejemplo, con solo apuntar la cámara del celular, puedes preguntar si una batería es compatible con tu dispositivo o qué tipo de tornillo necesitas. Gemini también puede comprar entradas para eventos, hacer reservaciones en restaurantes o monitorear precios hasta que bajen. Todo esto es opcional, pero ya se está probando con socios como Ticketmaster, Resy y Google Pay. En América Latina, empresas pequeñas pueden prepararse optimizando su presencia en línea con datos claros: ubicación, horario, precios y fotos de buena calidad. Mientras tanto, puedes explorar estas funciones descargando la app de Google y activando la opción de AI Mode, si estás en Estados Unidos. Para conocer más sobre el pasado, el presente y el futuro de las gafas inteligentes, escucha el episodio especial de El Siglo 21 es Hoy sobre las Gafas Google. AI Mode convierte la búsqueda en conversación, y Google ahora quiere estar presente incluso fuera del celular. ¿Te ayuda o te preocupa?

Attempts to meld virtual spaces and physical reality so far have struggled to take hold. For all the ingenuity behind projects like Google Glass, the metaverse, and the Apple Vision Pro, they've often felt like technologies in search of a purpose. Professor Nick Kelling, an engineer turned researcher, may have found one. Rebecca and Joe spoke to him about the limitations and possibilities of extended reality in the industrial sector. About our guestNick Kelling is a Professor of Human Factors Psychology at the University of Houston-Clear Lake.  His research focuses on the use of VR/XR/AR technologies for training psychomotor skills and the use of technology in environments where education and entertainment goals coexist. In his nearly two decades of research, he has collaborated with college athletics, computing and aerospace companies, amusement parks, zoos, and NASA. Nick is an author of more than 30 published works within education, human factors, and engineering receiving multiple grants from the US National Institute of Health and NASA.Subscribe to our biweekly newsletter.

What does independence truly mean for someone who can't see? This question lies at the heart of Envision's revolutionary approach to assistive technology for blind and low-vision individuals.Karthik Kannan's journey began with a simple career counseling visit to a blind school in India. While his sighted nephew dreamed of building cities on Mars, the blind students shared much more fundamental aspirations: reading books independently, visiting the beach alone, or simply living by themselves someday. This stark contrast revealed how much energy people with visual impairments spend overcoming basic hurdles that sighted people take for granted.That revelation sparked a mission to build a bridge between the visual world and those who cannot access it conventionally. Initially developing a crash-prone mobile app that converted images to speech, Karthik watched in amazement as the blind community persevered through its flaws because of its transformative potential. The app's organic growth led to Envision winning Google's Play Award for best accessibility experience, opening doors to integrate their technology with Google Glass.The marriage of AI and wearable technology has proven particularly powerful for accessibility. While smartphones require juggling a cane in one hand and possibly a guide dog with another, smart glasses provide hands-free access to visual information. Recent advances in conversational AI have further simplified the experience, allowing users to interact naturally through speech rather than learning complicated interfaces.Though currently priced around $1,800, these glasses are expected to become dramatically more affordable as smart wearables enter the mainstream. The impact has been so profound that many in the blind community place AI accessibility innovations in the same category as the invention of Braille.Join us to explore how technology can truly serve humanity when designed with inclusion at its core.

Tenhle Týden Živě bude hardwarový, ukazovací. Doporučujeme, abyste si tentokrát pustili video, kde uvidíte tři zajímavé kousky.DJI FlipKuba chtěl jen nalákat na nedělní recenzi, ale nakonec se docela rozpovídal a vypadá to, že s touhle novinkou se DJI trefilo do černého! Představení dronu najdete zde, recenzi Kuba chystá.WeLock: Smart Lock Fingerprint SECBN51Filip začíná testovat chytrý zámek WeLock SECBN51. Skvělé jsou na něm možnosti odemykání – jako klíč poslouží mobil, přibalené NFC štítky, nebo dálkový ovladač s Bluetooth (ten si ovšem musíte přikoupit). Ale vůbec nejlákavější je kapacitní čtečka otisků prstů, jaké známe ze smartphonů. Prostě přijdete, přiložíte prst a jste uvnitř. Paměť na 100 otisků by mohla stačit i větším rodinám.Naopak se nám nelíbí neintuitivní aplikace, která sice nabízí pokročilou správu uživatelů a přístupů, ale nebude jednoduché se v ní vyznat. Vyzkoušíme také Wi-Fi Box 3, což je brána, která komunikaci mezi zámkem a aplikací v mobilu posune od Bluetooth na internet, takže pak můžete zámek ovládat odkudkoliv na světě.PS: Se zámkem přišel i slevový kód. Když nakoupíte přes tento odkaz a při checkoutu vložíte SINDRO50, klesne cena z 4 838 Kč na 3 558 Kč.Realware NavigatorRozšířená realita je oříšek, který nerozlouskly ani ty největší tech-firmy světa. Vzpomínáte na Google Glass? Máme takovou teorii, že Google chtěl moc, chtěl, aby jeho brýle uměly všechno. Apple a jeho Vision Pro k tématu AR brýlí přistupují jinak, ale také nemáme pocit, že by šlo o závratný úspěch.A pak jsou tu produkty, které jednoduše dávají smysl. Zaměřují se na konkrétní problémy konkrétních lidí (v tomto případě spíše firem) a ty dostatečně dobře řeší. Hezkým příkladem je Realware Navigator 520, který v Česku nabízí (a připravuje na míru konkrétním požadavkům) firma Elvac. 00:29 Dron DJI Flip11:01 Zámek WeLock22:33 AR headset Realware Navigator 520

My guest today is Michael Garfield, a paleontologist, futurist, writer, podcast host and strategic advisor whose “mind-jazz” performances — essays, music and fine art — bridge the worlds of art, science and philosophy. This year, Michael received a $10k O'Shaughnessy Grant for his “Humans On the Loop” discussion series, which explores the nature of agency, power, responsibility and wisdom in the age of automation. This whirlwind discussion is impossible to sum up in a couple of sentences (just look at the number of books & articles mentioned!) Ultimately, it is a conversation about a subject I think about every day: how we can live curious, collaborative and fulfilling lives in our deeply weird, complex, probabilistic world.

Follow along with me, Allen Hall, and IntelStor's Phil Totaro, as we discuss the weird, the wild, and the game changing ideas that will charge your energy future. First patent idea is from our friends over at Orsted, and they are looking at a really novel approach of installing wind turn blades vertically rather than the horizontally, which is we do today offshore. So if you've watched offshore blades being installed, you've always seen them placed horizontally and slid towards the hub and everybody tightens them on. Well, that requires a lot of really tall cranes to, to make that happen. But what Orsted's thinking about is grabbing the blade kind of by the bottom and lifting it up vertically. In order to do this, you need a pretty rigid frame to hold this crane to keep it from the blade stabilized. So the crane doesn't move too much. And it's, it's, it's kind of a complicated mechanical problem. However, it does require a much shorter crane and that is the benefit and getting big cranes out at sea right now is really hard. Phil, so having a short crane with a much stronger crane head, I'll call it, Philip Totaro: Does make a lot of sense. It does. And, and so just for context, we talked a couple of weeks ago about, Equinor getting a patent on, technology around optimization of floating platforms. This is another example of a development and independent power producer company, Orsted, getting a patent. IP themselves that they control on something related to, the, the business that they do on a daily basis. And the reason I'm bringing this up is it's, it's a bit unique in the wind energy sector because most of the, Particularly important patents have been held in the past by the OEMs or other supply chain companies. So for, a company like Orsted to, to even contemplate doing this is, is fascinating. This is still in the conceptual phase. There's no rig that they've built yet. They've probably done some smaller scale bench testing, potentially. They've certainly done, plenty of computer modeling on, on this sort of thing. To get it to work. But it is, as Alan mentioned, an interesting concept because, the, the blade's moment of inertia, when it's in the vertical position, it, it has the opportunity to potentially flop around or tip over. But the counter to that is, as Alan mentioned as well, you need a much shorter crane boom. And so, these are some of the technical challenges that, that Orsted is trying to address with introducing this kind of technology. I guess the question maybe for Joel is, is, does this seem practical and, and how attractive is this going to be? Joel Saxum: I think from an operational standpoint, so for real world value of a patent, and this will happen eventually, and I don't think it's limited to offshore. I think it will happen onshore as well. And, and I'm saying this based on the global build out of wind farms, onshore, offshore, floating, you name it, what we're doing and the goals we have in place. All of these, do an easy one.

This week we talk about the HoloLens, the Apple Vision Pro, and the Meta Ray-Ban Smart Glasses.We also discuss augmented reality, virtual reality, and Orion.Recommended Book: The Mountain in the Sea by Ray NaylerTranscriptOriginally released as a development device in 2016—so aimed at folks who make software, primarily, not at the general public—the HoloLens, made by Microsoft, was a fairly innovative device that looked like virtual reality headgear, but which allowed folks to interact with graphical elements overlayed on a transparent surface so that they seemed to be positioned within the real world; so-called augmented reality.This functionality relied upon some of the tech Microsoft had developed for its earlier Kinect accessory, which allowed Xbox owners to play games using their bodies instead of more conventional controllers—it used a camera to figure out where people, and their arms, legs, and so on, were in space, and that helped this new team figure out how to map a person's living room, for instance, in order to place graphical elements throughout that room when viewed through the HoloLens' lenses; so stuff could appear behind your couch, pop out of a wall, or seem to be perched atop a table.The HoloLens was not the only option in this space, as several other companies, including other tech titans, but also startups like Magic Leap, were making similar devices, but it was arguably the most successful in the sense that it both developed this augmented reality technology fairly rapidly, and in the sense that it was able to negotiate collaborations and business relationships with entities like NASA, the US Military, and Autodesk—in some cases ensuring their hardware and software would play well with the hardware and software most commonly used in offices around the world, and in some cases showcasing the device's capabilities for potential scientific, defense, and next-step exploratory purposes.Like many new devices, Microsoft positioned the HoloLens, early on, as a potential hub for entertainment, launching it with a bunch of games and movie-like experiences that took advantage of its ability to adapt those entertainments to the spaces in which the end-user would consumer them: having enemies pop out of a wall in the user's kitchen, for instance, or projecting a movie screen on their ceiling.It was also pitched as a training tool, though, giving would-be astronauts the ability to practice working with tools in space, or helping doctors-in-training go through digital surgeries with realistic-looking patients before they ever got their hands dirty in real life. And the company leaned into that market with the second edition of the headset, which was announced and made available for pre-order in early-2019, optimizing it even further for enterprise purposes with a slew of upgrades, and pricing it accordingly, at $3,500.Among those upgrades was better overall hardware with higher-end specs, but it also did away with controllers and instead reoriented entirely toward eye- and hand-tracking options, combined with voice controls, allowing the user to speak their commands and use hand-gestures to interact with the digital things projected over the real-world spaces they inhabited.The original model also had basic hand-tracking functionality, but the new model expanded those capabilities substantially, while also expanding upon the first edition's fairly meager 30 degrees of augmented view: a relatively small portion of the user's line of sight could be filled with graphics, in other words, and the new version upgraded that to 52 degrees; so still not wall to wall interact-with-able graphics, but a significant upgrade.Unfortunately for fans of the HoloLens, Microsoft recently confirmed that they have ended production of their second generation device, and that while they will continue to issue security updates and support for their existing customers, like the US Department of Defense, they haven't announced a replacement for it—which could mean they're getting out of this space entirely.Which is interesting in the sense that this is a space, the world of augmented reality, which some newer entrants are rebranding as mixed reality, that seems to be blowing up right now: two of Microsoft's main competitors are throwing a lot of money and credibility into their own offerings, and pitching this type of hardware as the next-step in personal devices.Some analysts have posited, though, that Microsoft maybe just got into this now-burgeoning arena just a little too early, investing in some truly compelling innovations, but doing so at a moment in which the cost was too high to justify the eventual output, and now they might be ceding the space to their competition rather than doubling-down on something they don't think will pay off for them, or they may be approaching it from another angle entirely, going back to the drawing board and focusing on new innovations that will bypass the HoloLens brand entirely.What I'd like to talk about today are the offerings we're seeing from those other brands, and what seems to be happening, and may happen in the near-future, in this augmented-reality, mixed-reality segment of the tech world.—I did an episode on spacial computing and the Apple Vision Pro back when the device was made available for purchase in the US, in February of 2024.This device was considered to be a pretty big deal because of who was making it, Apple, which has a fairly solid record of making new devices with unfamiliar interfaces popular and even common, and because the approach they were taking: basically throwing a lot of money at this thing, and charging accordingly, around $3,500, which is the same price the second HoloLens was being sold for, as I noted in the intro.But because of that high price point, they were able to load this thing up with all sorts of bells and whistles, some of which were fundamental to its functionality—like super-high-density lenses that helped prevent nausea and other sorts of discord in their users—and some that were maybe just interesting experiments, like projecting a live video of the user's eyes, which are concealed by the headset, on the front of the headset, which to me is a somewhat spooky and silly effect, but which is nonetheless technically impressive, and is something that seems aimed at making these things less anti-social, because you can wear the Vision Pro and still see people, and this projection of their eyes allows them to see you and your facial expression at the same time.I've actually had the chance to use this device since that episode went live, and while there are a lot of weird little limitations and hindrances to this device going mainstream at the moment, the technology works surprisingly well right out of the box, with the eye- and hand-tracking elements working shockingly, almost magically well for relatively early-edition tech; Apple is pretty good at making novel user-interfaces intuitive, and that component of this device, at least, seemed like a slam dunk to me—for casual use-cases, at least.That said, the company has been criticized for that high price point and their seeming fixation on things like putting the users' eyes on the outside of the headset, rather than, for instance, investing in more content and figuring out how to make the thing more comfortable for long periods of time—a common complaint with basically every virtual reality or mixed-reality headset ever developed, because of the sheer amount of hardware that has to be crammed into a finite, head-and-face-mounted space, that space also needing to be properly balanced, and it can't get too hot, for perhaps obvious reasons.Those criticisms related to price are the result not of comparison to HoloLens, as again, the pricing is basically the same between these two devices, but instead the result of what Meta has done with their mixed-reality offerings, which are based on products and technology they acquired when they bought Oculus Labs; they've leaned into providing virtual reality devices for the low- and mid-market consumer, and their newest model, the Meta Quest 3S is a stand-alone device that costs between about $300 and $400, and it has mixed-reality functionality, similar to the Vision Pro and HoloLens.While Meta's Quest line doesn't have anywhere near the specs and polish of the Vision Pro, then, and while it didn't arrive as early as the HoloLens, only hitting shelves quite recently, it does provide enough functionality and serves enough peoples' purposes, and at a far lower price point, that it, along with its other Quest-line kin, has managed to gobble up a lot of market share, especially in the consumer mixed-reality arena, because far more people are willing to take a bet on a newer technology with questionable utility that costs $300 compared to one that costs them more than ten-times as much.Interestingly, though, while Meta's Reality Labs sub-brand seems to be doing decently well with their Quest line of headsets, a product that they made in collaboration with glasses and sunglasses company EssilorLuxottica, which owns a huge chunk of the total glasses and sunglasses global market, via their many sub-brands, may end up being the more popular and widely used device, at least for the foreseeable future.The Ray-Ban Meta Smartglasses looks almost exactly like traditional, Ray-Ban sunglasses, but with slightly bulkier arms and with camera lenses built into the frames near where the arms connect to them.If you're not looking carefully, then, these things can be easily mistaken for just normal old Ray-Bans, but they are smartglasses in that they contain those two cameras on the front, alongside open-air speakers, a microphone, and a touchpad, all of which allow the wearer to interact with and use them in various ways, including listening to music and talking on the phone, but also taking photos of what they're looking at, recording video of the same, and asking an AI chatbot questions like, what type of flower is this, and getting an audible answer.These things cost around what you would pay for a Quest headset: something like $300-400, but their functionality is very different: they don't project graphics to overlay the user's view, in that regard they function like normal sunglasses or prescription glasses, but if you want to snap a photo, livestream whatever it is you're seeing, or ask a question, you can do that using a combination of vocal commands and interacting with the built-in touchpad.And while this isn't the mixed-reality that many of us might think of when we hear that term, it's still the same general concept, as it allows the user to engage with technology in real-life, in the real-world, overlaying the real world with digital, easily accessed, internet-derived information and other utilities. And it manages to do so without looking super obtrusive, like earlier versions of the same concept—Google's Google Glass smartglasses come to mind, which were earlier versions of basically the same idea, but with some limited graphical overlay options, and in a form factor that made the wearer look like an awkward, somewhat creepy cyborg.Snap, the parent company of Snapchat, has a similar offering which originally leaned into the same “these look just like glasses, but have little camera lenses in them” strategy, though with their newest iteration, their Spectacles smartglasses product has reoriented toward a look that's more akin to a larger, clunkier version of the free 3d glasses you might use at the movie theater—not exactly inconspicuous, though offering much of the same functionality as Meta's Raybans, alongside some basic graphical overlay functions: a lightweight version of what the Vision Pro and Quest offer, basically, and in a much small package.These new Spectacles are only available for folks who sign up for the company's developer program at the moment, however, and are purchased not as a one-off, but for $99/month, with a minimum commitment of 12 months—so the price tag is quite a bit higher than those Quests and Raybans, as well.Interestingly, Meta's Reality Labs recently held an event in which they showed off an arguably more advanced version of Snap's Spectacles, called Orion.These things are being pitched as the be-all, end-all mixed-reality solution that every company is trying to develop, but which they can't develop yet, at least not at scale. They look like giant, cartoony glasses—they're shaped like glasses, but comically oversized ones—and they provide many of the same benefits as today's Quest headset, but without the large, heavy headset component; so these could theoretically be used in the real-world, not just in one's living room or office.The company announced this product along with the caveat that they cannot make it on scale, yet, because cramming that much functionality into such a small device is really stressing the capacity of current manufacturing technologies, and while they can build one of these glasses, with its accompanying wristband and a little controller, both of which help the glasses do what they do, in terms of compute and the user interface, for about $10,000 per unit, they could not, today, build enough of them to make it a real, sellable product, much less do so at a profit.So this was a look at what they hope to be doing within the next decade, and basically gives them credibility as the company that's already building what's next—now it's just a matter of bringing down costs, scaling up production, and making all the components smaller and more energy efficient; which is a lot of work that will take years, but is also something they should theoretically at least be able to do.To be clear, most other big tech companies should be capable of build really snazzy, futuristic one-offs like the Orion, as well, especially if they, like Meta, offload some of the device's functionality into accessory hardware—the Vision Pro has offloaded its battery into a somewhat clunky, pocketable appendage, for instance, and most of these devices make use of some kind of external controller, to make the user interface snappier and more accurate.But Meta is attempting to show that this is the direction they see wearable technology going, and maybe our engagement with the digital world more holistically, as well. It's easy to imagine a world in which we all have these sorts of capabilities built into our glasses and wristbands and other wearables, rather than having to work with flat, not-mixed-reality screens all the time, especially once you see the tech in action, even if only as a not-for-sale example.One aspect of this potential future that Meta is forecasting is already leading to some soul-searching, though.Some students at Harvard modified a pair of Meta Ray-Bans to use facial recognition and reverse-image search technology so they could basically look at a stranger, then learn a bunch of stuff about them really quickly, to the point that these students were able to do this, then pretend to know the that stranger, talk about their work, find their spouse's phone number—a bunch of details that made it seem like they knew this person they'd only just met.All of which is pretty wild and interesting, but also potentially frightening, considering that this is basically doxing someone on demand, in public, and it could be used—like many other tech innovations, granted—to enable and augment stalking or kidnapping or other such crimes.None of which is destiny, of course. Nor is the success of this product type.But there does seem to be a lot of interest in what these gadgets seem like they might offer, especially as the prices drop, and as more entrants carve out space in that relatively lower-cost space—which is a space Apple is reportedly planning to enter soon, too, with a new edition of their Vision Pro that would cost maybe something like half as much as the first one, and possibly smart glasses and maybe even Airpods with cameras meant for release over the next couple of years.So it may be that the early divulgence of these next-step devices, showing us where these things might go with these higher-priced, smaller audience initial editions, could allow us to predict and prepare for some of their negative externalities before they go completely mainstream, so that when they finally arrive in their finished form, we're a bit more prepared to enjoy the benefits while suffering fewer (though almost certainly not zero) of their potential downsides.Show Noteshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_computinghttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Vision_Prohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meta_Quest_3Shttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meta_Platformshttps://www.reddit.com/r/RayBanStories/comments/1e3frhc/my_honest_review_of_the_rayban_metas_as_everyday/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray-Ban_Metahttps://www.spectacles.com/spectacles-24?lang=en-UShttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectacles_(product)https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/students-add-facial-recognition-to-meta-smart-glasses-to-identify-strangers-in-real-time.2438942/https://archive.ph/6TqgFhttps://www.theverge.com/24253908/meta-orion-ar-glasses-demo-mark-zuckerberg-interviewhttps://about.fb.com/news/2024/09/introducing-orion-our-first-true-augmented-reality-glasses/https://www.reddit.com/r/augmentedreality/comments/1frdjt2/meta_orion_ar_glasses_the_first_deep_dive_into/https://appleinsider.com/articles/24/10/13/cheaper-apple-vision-headset-rumored-to-cost-2000-arriving-in-2026https://www.uploadvr.com/microsoft-discontinuing-hololens-2/https://www.theverge.com/2024/10/1/24259369/microsoft-hololens-2-discontinuation-supporthttps://www.theverge.com/2022/6/7/23159049/microsoft-hololens-boss-alex-kipman-leaves-resigns-misconduct-allegationshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_HoloLens This is a public episode.
