RE: This technology will change everything! A look into Magic Leap

in #technology7 years ago

So I played a little with the Hololens, the MR headset from Microsoft (without a little computer on a wire). And it is fun but still pretty useless. As long as these lenses aren't build into normal glasses or contacts, it won't become mainstream and useful. Can't wait till that happens though.

Sort:  

I think that’s one of the biggest issues. In reality people aren’t going to be wearing things things and carrying around a mini computer. But we already do carry around a little computer, so when you think ahead a few years it’s not crazy to think that there could be Bluetooth connected contacts that are operated by a smartphone or something like that.

Sure, calculating power on your phone, visualisation on the glasses/lenses. That would work. But speed of bluetooth could currently be an issue here. The video stream has to be send & analysed and the overlay had to be send back. If here is some sort of delay that that the human notices...it's a no go ;) But it will happen...some day!
