Meta nie tracąc czasu, rzuca cień na nadchodzący headset Apple Vision Pro. Przynajmniej zrobił to Mark Zuckerberg podczas konferencji Connect, oficjalnie przedstawiając nowy Quest 3.
Zuckerberg musiał podkreślić, że nowy headset od Meta nie będzie rozpraszał użytkownika przewodami ani akumulatorami – ciekawa retoryka, przyznaję i trafna.
Obudowa Meta Quest 3 nie uległa zmianie, ale Zuckerberg i tak porównał to urządzenie do Apple Vision Pro na slajdach. Quest 3 to pierwszy konsumencki headset AR/VR. Jest to oczywiście dużo tańszy od Apple Vision Pro. Kosztuje 500 USD.
Do sklepów trafi 10 października, a Microsoft wesprze Metę, wprowadzając swoją platformę do gier w chmurze na Quest 3 w grudniu tego roku.
Czy ta premiera zagrozi Apple Vision Pro? Absolutnie nie. Wiecie dlaczego? Ponieważ porównujemy headset AR/VR do przestrzennego komputera. Tym właśnie jest i będzie w przyszłości Vision Pro.

#Metaverse #AR #VR #Privacy #DataProtection #XR: "The immersive internet experience known as the metaverse will erode users’ privacy unless significant steps are taken to improve and regulate how the technology captures and stores personal data, a new report from New York University argues.
The metaverse relies on extended reality (XR) technologies — the umbrella term referring to augmented reality, virtual reality and mixed reality. The report from NYU’s Stern Center for Business and Human Rights warns that because the technology doesn't work without gathering and processing vast quantities of personal and bodily data, it presents a major privacy risk.
According to the report, the bodily data alone can be used to deduce behavioral and psychological information about individuals.
“Conventional XR hardware is equipped with sensors that continuously track at least three types of user data: head movements, eye movements, and spatial maps of physical surroundings,” the report says."

Even if they walk it back, the Unity debacle is ultimately good for the XR community. Allowing a game engine to dominate the space has locked out developers who have no interest in game development.
We need to move away from game engines and create new & intuitive tools, designed from the ground up for XR, enabling an untapped community to discover new use-cases.

i feel like augmented reality is a great idea, but there hasn’t been an app yet that shows its full potential in a practical way.

Generally I really like #DamiLee's #YouTube videos but this one, along with the video extolling the virtues and wonders of a very inaccessible house she's proudly designing, reveal what to me seems like a lack of connection to a grounded reality that accounts for real people living real lives.
Current #AR and #VR #tech isn't practical in public environments, and what those #technologies may ultimately provide can't ever transcend the realities of physical spaces.
I’m very excited to share that I started as an Assistant Professor of Computer Science at Princeton University today! 🎉 I look forward to joining the growing @princeton HCI group and continuing my work on #AR and #spatialcomputing.
Activate VR in Unity at runtime? How hard can it be?
Answer: one and a half days' worth of troubleshooting the Wi-Fi, blaming the Oculus Pro, and a pinch of frustration hard...
On the bright side, I got a blog out of it! Check it out:
https://www.anton.website/enable-unity-xr-in-runtime
Meta's wild prototype Flamera headset looks straight out of a sci-fi film.
And the strange, bug-eyed lens design isn't just for fun. The Flamera's odd lens is specifically designed to guide light in a way that defeats the perspective problems that most AR headsets suffer.
It's an alternative to the Meta Quest Pro and upcoming Apple Vision Pro, both of which try to crush the perspective problem with raw computational power.
Apple Vision Pro isn't out yet, and Google has already scrapped their plans for a simple pair of glasses. Now they're partnering with Samsung to make a pair of AR goggles.
This is a terrible idea...

I’m posting this from one of three #AR monitors on my ceiling as I recline in bed. Sometimes living in the future is actually cool.
So far all of my life's work has been gobbled up by these tech bros. #VR, #AR, and #AI get tossed into the worthless pile while I've been using all of it daily. What I'm using it for and what they are promising are radically different but it still gets grouped together.
Here's the link to that article I screen capped above. I did that because I didn't want that person making a reasonable point to be dragged into "it's all good actually" that I'm making now.

I'm still quite shocked and pissed off by this bad news : the layoff of the #ThirdRoom team and indefinite pause on the project, due to lack of funds ... : apparently the main funds providers are diverting their attention from one hype to another (metaverse to AI) while there are actual productive usecases for the tech developed already (but needs some brushing)
and @EU_Commission @EC_DIGIT @EC_NGI funds are totally not adequate to support this :/ what a waste 🥶 #vr #ar #metaverse #floss #libre
@kierkegaank Don’t discount entertainment. #AR might (stress might) yield some interesting twists beyond gaming. As for #AI that will yield entertainment as well, once it crashes and burns and takes so much with it.
I’m a bit of a negative Nancy and looking at the 2 BIG tech trends now I’m not sure what’s what with my biases
With #AI I see a new phase of automation of administrative work, but just a support tool for less strictly defined tasks. You’ll still need professional humans to do the actual work when it’s not highly procedural
With #AR I can’t see convincing use cases beyond commercial telepresence in soulsucking meetings, and $$ gaming
Am I too Nancy or are we seeing #Nvidia and #Apple peak now?

Neat! I love how we're getting a new class of mobile devices with these #ar glasses based things like the XReal Beam.
I'm excited to be able to get a lil compute puck that I can run Linux + @stardustxr on as my primary device.
And now to something completely different: for a project I am looking for AR/XR glasses with the following features: camera with the abilty to live stream the content to a remote audience, two way audio connection with this audience, and ideally the option to read/see feedback from the audience on the AR display. If there is a very robust and convincing solution without the latter, maybe audio feedback is enough, too. What would you recommend?

🪦 Lessons From the Catastrophic Failure of the Metaverse
—The Nation
「 The Ford Pinto–esque failure of this enterprise, finally put to bed by Zuckerberg himself in May, cost people their jobs, investors their money, people their time. It should cost McKinsey, Citi, Meta, and all the folks in architecture eager to jump on the bandwagon more than a little of their prestige or dignity 」

So, I’m low-key thinking of writing my first-ever graphics-heavy software. (Specifically, to do with VR / UIs, but not gaming.)
Thing is, my experience is with PLT & compilers, distsys, FOSS … but _extremely_ not graphics, GPUs, or single-host performance of pretty much any kind.
I need advice. If I want to learn some relatively-low-level graphics stuff, but I have _zero_ relevant background; where do I start?
Any resources for me (tutorials, books, well-known starter projects?)
(Also, any Mastodon accounts I should follow on this topic? Poke me if you're into this stuff and I'll follow you! :P)

I've been really enjoying this Youtube series on Apple’s AR tooling. It started before the #AppleVisionPro and #visionOS were announced but it's covering the entire process of building an #AR game for iOS in #Swift, starting with the 3D models. It is one of the great recent examples that is all-in on #SwiftUI too. #iOSDev https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOsr5_dgp7A
Google is no longer building its own augmented reality glasses.The company has chosen to focus on #AR software instead. https://www.engadget.com/google-is-no-longer-building-its-own-augmented-reality-glasses-062555498.html
Google is reportedly cancelling their AR project Iris. I REALLY HOPE Iris was their mixed reality ski goggle headset, and not the simpler glasses shown here demoing real time translation.

I owned the Focals by North glasses, and I can't tell you how transformative that experience was. It was NOT any kind of real AR. It was a simple heads up display, with a UI like a smartwatch, but at eye level. It was amazing.
I truly believe we're skipping an INCREDIBLY important step trying to race to magic sci-fi AR. So many interactions with our technology would be wonderfully streamlined with a simple graphic or text at eye level.
