Impulse Labs founder and CEO Sam D'Amico joins ARK's Brett Winton and Sam Korus to explore how embedding batteries into appliances—starting with the humble kitchen stove—can rewire energy infrastructure from the inside out. From his time at Oculus and Google to pioneering a 10,000-watt induction cooktop, Sam shares how Impulse is building what he calls the “modern electric technology stack,” and why that could make Impulse the Tesla of home devices.Key Points From This Episode:(00:00:00) Intro(00:01:00) Why ARK is excited about Impulse Labs(00:03:20) From Oculus to appliances — Sam's founder story(00:06:40) Why embedding batteries transforms the home(00:08:20) “The battery of things” vs. “the internet of things”(00:10:30) How induction cooking works — and what Impulse improves(00:13:30) Building a 10,000-watt coil and keeping it safe(00:17:35) Precision temperature control and AI-powered cooking(00:20:17) Using the stove's battery as grid storage(00:23:59) How battery-backed appliances help with installation and energy resilience(00:26:30) Beyond stoves — expanding into HVAC, water heaters, laundry, and more(00:30:35) Distributed batteries vs. centralized storage(00:34:00) Infrastructure benefits from embedded storage(00:38:20) Why performance, not just sustainability, drives electrification(00:40:52) Scaling manufacturing and the factory as a product(00:44:03) KPIs: Deployed devices and battery gigawatt hours(00:47:18) Microwave experiments and future applications(00:49:17) The appliance market's legacy and Impulse's edge(00:51:05) The original pizza obsession that sparked the idea

Welcome to this classic episode. Classics are my favorite episodes from the past 10 years, published once a month. These are N of 1 conversations with N of 1 people. Palmer Luckey is a relentless builder and original thinker. He founded Oculus, bringing virtual reality to the mainstream, and is now reshaping the future of defense and technology with Anduril. I hope you enjoy this conversation. Palmer is the founder of Anduril, which makes next-generation military technology for the US and its allies. Since bringing the company to life in 2017, Palmer and Anduril have disrupted the established order in the Defense industry. Prior to Anduril, Palmer founded Oculus VR, a virtual reality business that he sold to Facebook for $2 billion. Palmer is only in his early 30s, but he has already experienced more than most people will in a 40-year career. We talk about innovation, invention, differentiated thinking, and so much more. Please enjoy this great discussion with Palmer Luckey. Listen to Patrick's Business Breakdowns with Anduril CEO.

This Episode contains a recording of a panel I moderated at the second nextReality.Festival in Hamburg. The Festival is framing Germanys oldest XR prize, the nextReality.Contest. Transparency annotation: Spatial Realities is a media partner of the nextReality.Festival. Although travelcosts have been covered by nextReality Hamburg e.V., my opinion and this reporting still remails independent. The Guests: Antony Vitillo (LI →), XR Developer and owner of the famous blog "The Ghost Howls" — one of the most popular international XR bloggers — and Jan-Keno Jansen (LI →), Editor at German c't magazine since 2007, an XR reporter since the early Oculus days, and since 2021 host of c't's YouTube Channel 3003, one of the most successful tech channels in Germany. About the Panel "Look Behind the Goggles: XR Journalism in the Crossfire of Hype and Reality" we discussed how reporting about XR has changed over the last ten years. Both Jan-Keno and Antony can tell different storys. Jen-Kenos XR-journey started when he tried one of the first prototypes meeting Palmer Luckey in the US and how he was trying to write about how it feels to be in VR. For Antony the story started with his Blog, which was originaly a marketing blog, but quickly adressed a community which was developer-heavy and craving for facts and numbers. Learn how the panelists handle the growing pressure from US-BigTech in this episode!

Pero Even Realities propone hacerlo sin que nadie note que llevas tecnología encima.Hoy vamos a descubrir cómo estas gafas logran proyectar texto en tus lentes, traducir conversaciones en tiempo real y hasta mostrar un teleprompter, todo sin romper la privacidad.Y sí, con un anillo en el dedo que funciona como mando, y que además mide tus pasos, tu ritmo cardíaco y tu sueño.Even Realities presentó las nuevas G2, una evolución ligera y minimalista de sus primeras gafas inteligentes. Cuestan 599 dólares, pesan solo 36 gramos y tienen una pantalla un 75 % más grande que la versión anterior. A diferencia de las Ray-Ban de Meta, no tienen cámaras ni altavoces, lo que evita el problema de grabar sin consentimiento y mejora la comodidad.El nuevo anillo R1, de 249 dólares, permite controlar las funciones del display con gestos del pulgar, sin necesidad de tocar las gafas. Además, incluye sensores que registran pasos, pulso y sueño.Estas gafas con realidad aumentada proyectan texto, traducciones, notificaciones o un teleprompter directamente sobre los lentes. La empresa promete dos días de batería y hasta siete recargas extra en el estuche.¿Podrán ser el primer par de gafas inteligentes que la gente quiera usar todos los días?Parece magia, pero en realidad es óptica, inteligencia artificial… y una buena estrategia de diseño.Even Realities nació con una idea clara: hacer gafas inteligentes que no espanten a nadie. Nada de cámaras grabando a desconocidos ni de altavoces transmitiendo sonido al aire.Su primer modelo, el G1, fue una prueba. El G2 llega con todo lo que aprendieron de ese experimento: lentes más delgados, más ligeros y con pantallas micro-LED de alta definición integradas en ambos cristales.La tecnología que usan se llama HAO 2.0 —Holistic Adaptive Optics—, un sistema de proyección dual que muestra texto verde flotante, como un pequeño “HUD”, una interfaz de realidad aumentada que no molesta a la vista.Los materiales son una mezcla de titanio y aleación de magnesio. Eso las hace resistentes y, sobre todo, cómodas. La forma puede ser redonda o rectangular, y hay tres colores: gris, marrón o verde. También son resistentes al agua y al polvo con certificación IP67.El gran reto de las gafas inteligentes ha sido siempre el mismo: hacer que la gente quiera usarlas.Las Google Glass fracasaron por su aspecto. Las Ray-Ban de Meta inquietan por sus cámaras. Y otras marcas han apostado por proyectores enormes o diseños demasiado futuristas.Even Realities optó por el camino opuesto: unas gafas que parecen gafas normales. Su apuesta se llama quiet tech, o “tecnología silenciosa”: dispositivos que no llaman la atención y que se integran en la vida cotidiana.Pero hay otro desafío: la interacción. Si no hay cámara, ni altavoz, ni pantalla táctil, ¿cómo se manejan?Ahí entra el R1, un anillo de acero inoxidable con recubrimiento cerámico que se convierte en un control invisible. Con un roce del pulgar se puede navegar por menús, pasar una diapositiva, activar traducción simultánea o controlar el teleprompter.El resultado es un conjunto que se siente natural. El G2 muestra la hora, el clima, tus recordatorios y los titulares del día en un panel flotante frente a tus ojos. También traduce conversaciones en 29 idiomas y ofrece indicaciones de navegación paso a paso.Si activas el modo Conversate, la inteligencia artificial Even AI escucha la charla y te sugiere preguntas, genera subtítulos o resume lo que se habló. Todo sin grabar audio, solo transcripción.El anillo no solo sirve de mando: también mide frecuencia cardíaca, oxígeno en sangre y calidad del sueño. Aunque no alcanza la precisión de un reloj deportivo, cumple como complemento.La batería dura dos días, y el estuche ofrece siete cargas completas. El R1 puede durar hasta cuatro.Lo más interesante es su enfoque en la privacidad y la comodidad. No te espía, no graba a nadie, y pesa menos que muchos anteojos comunes.Durante la presentación, el director ejecutivo Will Wang explicó que su meta es “ser el Tesla y el OpenAI de las gafas inteligentes”. La empresa distribuye ya su primer modelo, el G1, en más de 350 tiendas de óptica de lujo.El nuevo modelo G2 amplía el rango de prescripciones: desde –12 hasta +12 dioptrías, lo que permite que casi cualquier persona las use.La interfaz permite leer noticias, revisar listas, controlar el calendario y hasta ensayar discursos con el modo Teleprompter, una función que ya usó el creador de Oculus, Palmer Luckey, en una charla TED.Los expertos coinciden en que el hardware es sobresaliente, pero el software todavía necesita pulirse. Algunos probadores encontraron fallos en la app beta y datos de salud que no se sincronizaban bien. Even Realities promete actualizaciones y una tienda llamada Even Hub, donde desarrolladores podrán crear sus propias aplicaciones para las gafas.El lanzamiento global ya está en marcha: tanto el G2 como el anillo R1 están a la venta desde noviembre con un descuento del 50 % en accesorios para los primeros compradores.Las Even G2 son un paso real hacia unas gafas inteligentes que parecen normales.Ofrecen pantalla, IA y control por anillo sin invadir la privacidad. Falta que el software madure, pero la dirección es clara: la tecnología invisible ya está aquí.¿Tú te pondrías unas gafas que muestran texto sin que nadie lo note? Cuéntamelo y escucha este y otros episodios en Flash Diario en Spotify.Las gafas Even G2 proyectan texto en tus lentes y se controlan con un anillo inteligente que mide tu salud.

In the final Daylight in the Dark of October, we return with Part VIII of our solo episodic horror series as the hour grows late within the season. We draw the category of Standalone Horror Films in “This or That,” do our Movie Swap segment reviews on Villains and Oculus, discuss the Dallas Cowboys 2025 season thus far, Sheri Moon Zombie, & SO MUCH MORE!
A former Senate staffer recently told our friend, reporter Dexter Filkins: “The last socialist systems in the world are in Cuba and the Pentagon.” My guest tonight is trying to do something about that. And good luck to anyone trying to get in his way. When people think of defense tech titans, they might not think of my guest tonight, Palmer Luckey. He looks more like Jimmy Buffett than George S. Patton. But don't let his looks deceive you. At the age of 19, Palmer founded the VR company Oculus. Two years later, it was acquired by Facebook for more than two billion dollars. Then, when he was 24—while his peers were making dating apps and platforms to share thirst traps—he founded Anduril Industries, having had no experience whatsoever in the world of defense. Now it's a $30.5 billion company that develops drones, autonomous vehicles, subs, rockets, and software for military use. At just 33, Palmer spends his days building the most technologically advanced software and war-fighting devices in the world. His goal is straightforward: “Move fast, build what works, and get it into the hands of people who need it.” And the moment could not be more critical. Iran is trying to destabilize the Middle East. Russia is willing to lose countless soldiers to gain slivers of territory in Ukraine. China is gaming how to invade Taiwan—to say nothing of our intensifying cold war and AI arms race. And the West's enemies are undermining us from without and within. Bari sat down with Palmer Luckey live in D.C. to ask: What can we do about all of it? Does America still have the technological prowess—and, more importantly, the will—to win? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Hi everyone, this week we have a Halloween surprise for you! My producer Jeph and I are rewatching Mike Flanagan's 2013 horror film Oculus, which I starred in. Grab some popcorn and candy and get ready for some southern gothic scares. I haven't seen this movie in over a decade, so it was a lot of fun to sit down and try to remember what happened. Jeph had never seen it, so he was coming in blind! For this audio companion, Jeph and I introduce the movie and talk through some behind the scenes stories about the rest of the cast, which included Karen Gillan, Brenton Thwaites, Kate Siegel and Rory Cochrane.

Emilio Domenech ha comenzado destacando la luz naranja de WATIF, la vuelta de los telefonos fijos a muchas casas de EEUU para intentar retrasar el acceso de los mas pequenos a los dispositivos moviles. Hemos aprovechado por preguntar a los oyentes por aquellas cosas que podrian volver. Por otra parte, Irene ya se siente como en casa en el estudio principal de Onda Cero y ha traido su carro de la compra para aprovechar e ir a hacer recados despues del programa. Hacer la compra es un drama para muchos de los jovenes en la actualidad, que entre la verguenza y el desconocimiento les supone todo un reto bajar a la carniceria. La luz roja del semaforo es una colaboracion entre Meta y Oculus para crear los Eagles Eye, unas gafas de uso militar de realidad mixta disenadas para integrarse en los cascos de los soldados. Para finalizar de manera positiva, el destello verde junta el cine los Beatles, y es que se estan produciendo cuatro peliculas sobre el famoso grupo de Liverpool, cada una de ellas desde el punto de vista de uno de sus integrantes.

The Automotive Troublemaker w/ Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier
Shoot us a Text.Episode #1141: Tesla drops a philosophy-heavy master plan that barely mentions EVs. Palmer Luckey becomes the first to fly the Jetson One eVTOL. And McKinsey pushes back on AI job fears with a boost in entry-level hiring.Tesla's “Master Plan Part IV” is here, and it might just be the most philosophical of the bunch. With barely a mention of actual cars, the company appears to be pivoting hard toward artificial intelligence, humanoid robots, and an ambitious goal they call “sustainable abundance.”The document positions Tesla as a leader in building tools that "bring AI into the physical world."The original "Master Plans" outlined clear goals: launch EVs, scale production, and push solar. Fewer than 200 words of Part IV reference Tesla's current or future products, with humanoid robot Optimus taking center stage.The plan leans heavily into themes like "Growth is infinite" and "Innovation removes constraints" instead of product roadmaps.Electric vehicles are only mentioned in the context of the past; the future is autonomy, labor automation, and AI computing.Musk has said Tesla's humanoid robots will account for “~80% of Tesla's long-term value.”Tech founder Palmer Luckey just became the first customer to take delivery of the Jetson One — a personal electric aircraft that doesn't even require a pilot's license. And yes, he took it for a spin.The Oculus and Anduril founder lifted off in Carlsbad, CA after just 50 minutes of training.Jetson One is a $128,000 single-seat eVTOL with 20-minute flight time and 63 mph top speed.Luckey's flight kicks off Jetson's official global rollout; 2025 and 2026 models are already sold out.Jetson's CTO says their goal is to “move ground-based transportation up to the air.”At a time when many fear AI will make junior roles obsolete, McKinsey is leaning in the opposite direction. The firm announced it plans to grow North American hiring by 12% in 2026, with a focus on entry-level talent — especially those fluent in emerging tech.McKinsey currently employs 5,000–7,000 non-partners in North America and could grow that number by up to 20% in five years.North America chair Eric Kutcher values younger workers' fluency in tech: “The 20-year-old econ major… is way more in tune.”Kutcher emphasized that while AI may improve efficiency, it frees up teams to pursue growth initiatives — not layoffs.Many CEOs aren't excited by cost-cutting; they're eager to redirect resources toward new opportunities, he noted.“What we will work on will still require the same level of intellect… doing the things that you can't do with machines,” said Kutcher.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/
