I was very critical of Glass back then and thought it was going to poison the well of AR by having one display. I did not expect it was the camera part that showed up in the news. I keep wondering if that will comeback with MR which will have way more cameras.

I think the tablet setup for self-driving cars will probably be what we see for a while. Especially when the steering wheels are removed. The main thing is you need some form of input and touch is intuitive.

That's the issue of using passthrough video signals. Can't see people's eyes or anything and for enterprise and collaborative systems with people in a room it's not ideal. I don't envy the people trying to sell such systems. Hololens for enterprise is much closer to what people expect and even then the hardware is fraught with issues.

It sounds like we definitely think similarly about these issues, Augmented reality has a wonderful potential vs VR, Meta's shtick, sort of reminds me of dropping acid...
