Exclusive: We tried Meta's AR glasses with Mark Zuckerberg

[@The_main_andrew]

Not selling these and learning from them is the smartest thing they could do. Stoked for true ar glasses

[@eon5323]

If they could sell it, they would. The silicon carbide tech is simply too complex to mass manufacture right now.

[@thebluebeyond2329]

Wow, this actually impressive.

[@SquidVorb]

The wireless processing puck makes so much more sense than what Apple or Snap did.

[@R4Y7]

We carry our phones with plenty of compute with us, makes sense to tap into it

[@vincentlin7203]

This is why Apple is in a really good position. They can optimize the iPhone to do this when the display tech is cheap enough that they can begin to sell their AR glasses.

[@AntTurner]

Wireless is a delayed signal. Not great with high fidelity, these glasses are low resolution.

[@OCD.Reader]

Honestly. The moment i saw it, i started thinking, yah, why is everyone not doing this? It’s so much easier to have a low latency high bandwidth wireless chip, than a whole computer on your face. I honestly couldn’t come up with any reason why apple or others didn’t just start with this

[@vincentlin7203]

@@OCD.ReaderI think this is exactly when Apple is developing its own wireless chip.

[@nicktheg00]

I am PSYCHED for this! Can’t wait until you can actually buy them

[@darkwoodmovies]

Me too! See you in 2035 lol

[@TheOfficialOriginalChad]

I WONDER how high they would have had to set the price. My theory on the Vision Pro is that Apple spent billions on r&d and needed to get the conversation started. The price didn’t matter because the R&D wasn’t for the VP, but for XR as a whole. Now with Meta knowing that the VP still sold some units at $3500, they must have not been able to set the price that “low”

[@randomseer]

Metas been working on these glasses years before the vision pro launch. They have a 7 year development cycle according to the leaked roadmap

[@vincentlin7203]

The cost of the display itself is probably more than $3500 already, and that’s the only way they can achieve 70 degree FOV.

[@BuffPomsky]

Idk, with the new VR headset being $300, it def will be reasonable unlike Apple's vision pro lmao

[@vincentlin7203]

@@BuffPomsky The only reason they can achieve a 70-degree FOV is that they use a very expensive material - silicon carbide. Currently, there is no way they can make it affordable without sacrificing that, so I would expect this to not be for sale for at least 5 years.

[@kzed]

When I heard "ultra high end price point" I immediately assumed $5000 or more. Considering how cutting edge this tech is, I don't think my first instinct is too far off

[@jimmynguyen2720]

Y’all are fast 👀

[@bishopoftroy]

Make no mistake, he still wants to put us in the metaverse and collecting sensible data from all of us. He`s still a villain despite his PR driven appearance improvement.

[@vroreo5019]

Whats so precious about your data? Aren’t technological advancements of this magnitude worth them having your “data”? At the end of the day they have to make money somehow and i’m sure nobody is going to track you down and burn down your house because they had your “data”.

[@m4sonfirman]

You say whilst typing on KZbin which is owned by the largest data harvester of them all

[@maestroscuro]

Imagine making a RayBan version of these that offloads compute to the smartphone. That’d be sick!

[@z1DEv_ag]

This is why the 'Meta wasted billions on the metaverse' story breaks down. Money is not lost on R and D, it is invested in ideas, and it was worth it.

[@SpawnPoiint]

This actually looks pretty good. It’s definitely a step in the right direction (compared to what we’ve seen before).

[@TheSparkynuts]

They predict its gonna be 5 to 10 years before consumers get this :( but when it happens itll be crazy

[@kayskreed]

They're basically 80s cyberpunk goggles ala Ghost in the Shell. I anticipate a lot more car accidents, sadly.

[@josephdouglas6260]

When these come out, your car will drive itself

[@zonyyu8412]

Environment tracking and anchoring is ROUGH

[@Flewrider]

pretty sure thats because of how they did it for the video. If its anything like meta quest the anchoring is great. could be a little jiggle for connection latency to the puck? idk

[@TheUnknownFactor]

A large FOV is honestly just huge. I tried hololens and the pathetic FOV made it obvious it wouldnt be a consumer product

[@minantraXOX]

no ones interested in the metaverse , well at least not yet and defo not now!

[@jasonves]

I made an exact video on this but for Apple's next gen of Vision, but it seems Meta beat them to it; Apple would outsource processing to the iPhone, and hand gestures to the Apple Watch.. Very similar to what Meta just did with this

[@estusflask982]

Mark is increasing Meta's value just by looking human

[@toddileelee6935]

When AR and AI collide, things are going to get interesting.

[@MikeStevens]

Yeah okay, I'm into this.

[@FRANKWHITE1996]

nice hardware meta

[@vincentlin7203]

This is really impressive, but the cost of this is at least more than $3,000 because of the material of the display to achieve a 70-degree POV. I hope that it will cost less one day, but I think it is not happening in the near future.

[@tarunrocks88]

The articles mentions that Meta expects the price of consumer model to be in line with what smartphones and laptops cost today, which I interpret as 1k - 2k.

[@chrisjames509]

I really hope they put live subtitles on these. It will transform the lives of people who are hard of hearing.

[@martinkamarabrunson]

Just mix all the ingredients. Voila you have a smoothie.

[@joost3732]

Zuck is getting pretty good at acting like a normal human being

[@carloslopez-kb8pp]

Mark is going somewhere with this !

[@NicCrimson]

Why not just use the phone as a controller instead? It's a physical control and not as weird as moving some air.

[@zxntsw]

It might significantly shorten the phone's battery life.

[@UselessDuckCompany]

Immediately want

[@siddharthjain1745]

Apple has the perfect ecosystem for this. The Apple Watch is wrist band and your iPhone is the puck. Excited to see what Apple does with their vision products.

[@jamesoloughlin]

Magic Leap 2’s FOV is 70º but they decided to be more vertical aspect ratio. Plus Magic Leap 2 has global and segmented dimming features and likely more power in its wired compute battery puck. I am curious how Meta’s wireless compute battery pack performs and the thermals to maintain that wireless transmission. Clear advantage with the CTRL-Labs wristband maybe over ML’s controller? idk The clear benefit is you don’t have to carry around a controller but micro gestures and buttons can be captures on ML’s trackpad and buttons. POINT IS different set of trade-offs.

[@kevinweyrauch4875]

Yeah of course they know you make smoothies every morning. They are Meta and yes it should be creepy.

[@Gnomeshoes91]

Based on what I'm seeing from other reviewers, the smoothie thing was part of the default walkthrough for every tech journalist that got to try them out.

[@PLBlackBlood]

One question - what about people wearing normal glasses and don't wear contact lenses? Do they plan anything for that?

[@vennril]

The ingredients on the table was the softest softball in the history of softballs. You basically have 2 options: Just put everything in a bowl and have oatmeal with banana, dates and cacao, or blend it all up for a smoothie. Do you really need AI to tell you that? Also neither of those "recipes" even work if you don't also happen to have milk at home.

[@GarethStack]

To be fair that says nothing about the capability of the device, it's a machine learning issue, and these models are only getting more capable.

[@310max2]

This makes me so hyped for what's to come in the future.

[@Lens_lores]

The thing is this all can be done using a phone. I don't understand the push for AR and VR for everyday lives. They are niche devices, but who knows, people thought internet was a fad at first, so, lets see what happens. I met Google Glass's head of product once, and while everyone was making fun of the failure of the Glass, he was very serious when he was saying that there will be a day when people will like it, we were just a bit earlier. Maybe, he will have the last laugh.

[@dsoprano13]

We're getting close!

[@UltraDoug]

Great review of a pointless non-product. I appreciate the transparency (of the reporting) but these aren’t coming to market in any real way for a decade.

[@darkwoodmovies]

IMHO this tech has the same fundamental problem as self-driving cars. The industry thought they were unstoppable and could just will the technology into existence, but it's too far ahead of its time. It won't be feasible in any practical way for another decade at least.
