If Orion can do even half of what they're saying it can do at this form factor... holy crap
Virtual Umbrella retweeted
We just unveiled Orion, our full AR glasses prototype that we’ve been working on for nearly a decade. When we started on this journey, our teams predicted that we had a 10% chance (at best) of success.
This was our project to see if our dream AR glasses—wide FOV display, less than 100 grams, wireless—were actually possible to build. Not only do they work, we’ll be using them internally as a time machine to help build the core experiences and interaction paradigms needed for the consumer AR glasses we plan to launch in the coming years.
TL;DR: We built it, just like we said we would =)
