I’m working on an open source version of an AR OS that can run on any Android phone, so you (will be) in luck!
Comment on Apple Vision Pro Owners Are Struggling to Figure Out What They Just Bought
Wrench@lemmy.world 9 months agoI would love to walk around with a video playing in a fixed hud while I go around doing chores. I’m constantly finding places to put my phone down every time I move to another station.
I’m not paying $3500 for that, though.

Get a pair of Viture glasses then, it’s about $500

The windows don’t come with you, you’d have to look at the corner and pinch to carry it around, then when you let go it anchors wherever you left it

That was the idea of Google glasses but it was too early and tech wasn’t ready. It was gonna give you just enough useful info and get out of the way.
Plus Google haters made “glass-holes” viral.

I’m not sure whether it would work better today.
What seems odd about the glasses is that they’re essentially bodycams, but just unobtrusive enough not to be identified as such from a distance.
Someone walking around with an AR headset makes it very clear they’re wearing a tech device, someone holding up a phone in front of them signals “I might be filming”, but someone wearing slightly unusual glasses won’t catch any attention. And that seems very weird to a lot of people.

I thought Google Glass was a really cool idea. I actually liked Google back then.

To be fair, that product was crazy expensive. It was basically exclusively for wealthy people. If it was cheaper, and easy to develop for, it would have been a huge success.

God, I still dream of a device that works like we saw in the OG Glass concept video as opposed to the glorified Google Now browser we got
