I Wore Snap’s New Self Contained AR Spectacles and Snap OS
A self-contained new set of AR glasses can go outdoors, work with phones, connect with ChatGPT, and work with groups of people. But these big glasses also show how much work still needs to be done. Snap AR Spectacles – 0:00 Demos – 1:50 How It Differs – 3:50 Subscribe to CNET on YouTube: Never…

Wow, I’m guessing Meta will have something like this on their Connect. Snap beat them to it 😛 I’m just glad I’m alive to see this shift from phone to head mounted displays. Sure has a long way to go for mass adoption and the tech to get there. But we’re absolutely getting there.

It’s got me even more curious about the connect event. I’m really interested to see Metas rumored glasses are like compared to this. Snap investing in AR glasses since 2016 VS Meta who has been oculus since 2013 now shifting towards AR glasses? Who’s gonna do it better?

@@smittyvanjagermanjenson182 The awnser is unequivocally Meta based off every single leak we have available.
The FOV for these things is only 46 degrees, well below state of the art see through AR devices like Magic Leap 2 and Meta’s upcoming project Orion prototype (both of which feature a 70 degree field of view). Magic Leap 2 has been out since October 2022 and Project Orion will be unveiled at connect next week, though it won’t be sold to the general public.
Even the Microsoft HoloLens 2 which was released 5 years ago had a bigger FOV (52 degrees vs 46 degrees).

Am I just trippin or did you just say hamburger dinosaur? In ’85 The Twilight Zone had an episode called “Wordplay” in which a man in the twilight zone goes through a change where he hears people speaking English, but the words have different meaning. One of them is when they his wife says dinosaur she means lunch.

It’s crazy how much $ goes into R&D on such a stupid idea that no one is asking for – that they’ll never be able to do well. Pluggin in a neural uplink and uploading info in real-time for your cortex will be here long before they make AR/VR work.

@smittyvanjagermanjenson182
September 17, 2024 at 6:01 pm
It’s a developer subscription for experimental glasses, not for consumers in the slightest. meaning those devs are paying to rent the glasses to actually build something useful that benefits the platform and pays off for them and snap in the long run.
Once the platform is established, consumers won’t have a subscription. It’s snaps way of making sure their future consumer glasses are not an empty grave yard like the Apple Vision Pro ended up starting out as.

Very curious why these companies are trying to do ALL the compute in the glasses to start out. Why not leverage the phone for compute and have the phone send data/images to the glasses?
@smittyvanjagermanjenson182
September 17, 2024 at 5:54 pm
It’s better for a low latency interface if the glasses come equipped with its own processor. The processor in them is also tailor-made for XR use, while smartphone processors are not. However, they are similar.
Another major factor is that the majority of these smart glasses developers are not smartphone manufacturers. They can’t freely alter and optimize Android for their glasses on another companies hardware without explicit consent first. So, the proprietary OS they built helps devs bypass that for now.
Google and Samsung are releasing glasses soon, so let’s see if they use the current galaxy lineup or if they go with the stand-alone design as well.
@frinkfronk9198
September 17, 2024 at 6:40 pm
Yeah I still tend to think they are missing a big opportunity here too. Like it would be so much easier to create a wireless li k between the glasses with a tiny latency and super high speed than tying to keep all the computing power in board. They should be offloading it into the smartphone and using its vastly more powerful tech and steaming it to the glasses wirelessly.

FORTY FIVE MINUTE BATTERY LIFE
@citricdolphin
September 17, 2024 at 8:41 pm
I can’t see this kind of thing being even slightly useful until it has a better battery life or a smaller form factor, ideally both.
As it stands now, where it’s still very conspicuous and the battery life is so short that you’re only going to be wearing this exactly when you’re using it, I can barely see any practical advantage here compared to something like a Quest 3. Better battery, better performance, better visuals, better FOV…with the only real tradeoff being that it’s bigger and the passthrough (which you’re not relying heavily on anyway) is blurrier.
