But it's not all, as Varjo actually invented a Teleport Time Machine and Xreal just started the preorders for their phone. wait what?!?
Well, let's discover everything together in this video!

let me scan my studio and make it my Quest home environment please!

Teleport... how cool it would have been to have had this technology 40 years ago, and for a kid version of me to have previously recorded and now be able to walk around my childhood home in VR, complete with all it's original furnishings and knickknacks, family members, pets etc. The best I could have hoped for was some grainy polaroid photo. Kids of today are in for exciting times ahead.

Correction: Boz confirmed that Augments got heavily delayed.

[Nobody-Nowhere]

That Varjo "teleportation" uses gaussian splatting, there are several software's out there that you can use on other headsets also. Gracia for example offers this on quest headsets.

Its a shame, that the ocolus go's home was more interactiv and more friendly to invite people, play a table game or watch a movie in the corner.

“Late is just for a little while, suck is forever” Gabe Newell. I’m happy that they postponed instead of delivering half a feature!

[kaecatlady]

Sounds like Meta is actually just postponing Augments, not shutting the idea of doing them down completely.

I'm good with that, if it means that when they do come out with them, they're what they (andthose of us who are the users) want them to be.

[bacon]

hey I was the one that asked boz that question :D

[LilLegyiths]

augments was kind of the main reason I bought the quest3

[Simkets]

I keep spamming Meta about augments since January, lol. They are ignoring me. But they promised "early next year", so it's on them

[kael]

Missed the story about Apple delaying the Vision Pro 2.

[GreenBlueWalkthrough]

Ok let me correct some thing about augemnts... 1. they are a proven tech as they are used all the time in aerospace and cars, Google glass, AVP and pokemon go and even Quest 3 with the VR mode, the menu bar and safety circle scan... 2. it sounds like they are working but do to the bone headed softwear design of the Quest 3 that honestly should never have been the case... It will be just delayed till they can remake it... Like why all the gloom and doom and click bait?

[sonicsnake]

I wonder is the delay of augments because of Apple Vision Pros Spatial AR space.

[loremipsum]

1:50 Finally they come to the point that a single application smartphone OS is NOT the best system architecture for mixed reality!
This is what happens when you rebrand a VR solution as MR that is "a best product than AVP, periode".
By the way, what's up with Horizon OS that nobody wants?

[Matt-bpvy]

What the hell is with the bots on YT with NSFW avatars lmao.


Good video

Augments are basically 3d widgets like on an android home screen. They are better implementing it like that than making it more difficult for themselves.

Small drone to scan anything automatically???

[RasheedJones]

10 years from now everyone will be able to create anything they want with a phone. You won’t have to have skills anymore. Who ever has the best ideas will be the next big thing. Art school will be a thing of the past.

[liamcollinson]

Xreal didn't make a phone it may look like one but it cannot call or text people

[jeanhyppolite]

VR seems to be struggling. The player base is too small to support the influx of developers entering the market.
