I honestly doubt this will take off, but it’ll be interesting as a tech demo for what AR/VR can be at the highest end.

    they don’t even call it VR but spatial computing instead.

    I was under the impression these were meant to be AR glasses, not VR glasses? Either way, I’m not really sure who their target demographic is supposed to be at that price point.

      I wouldn’t consider it AR because it’s still a fully virtual environment the user is interacting with, granted it’s built convincingly from the camera feeds. If the lens were a clear passthrough into the real world+layering virtual elements over it then I think it falls under AR.

      It’s mostly semantics though. The line between AR and VR has been fuzzy since we started shoving camera passthrough on devices.
