To be fair, none of these things are trivial:
- Creating an AR operating system
- Developing and manufacturing AR hardware
- Creating an SDK and a developer ecosystem for the hardware and software
- Creating a platform for selling AR apps, and selling B2B
- Doing R&D and filing patents for new AR tech
I don't think they are one of those companies where I wonder why they need people. They are doing something really hard. Maybe too hard.
- gameswithgo 6y agoprolly don’t need an os. or a platform.
- waste_monk 6y agoI'd imagine it's some kind of RTOS to handle the time sensitive parts of the graphics / AR stuff. Probably not custom kernel but they'd have to develop a lot of stuff around it. As for the sales platform, why wouldn't they develop it? To attract developers they need to make it easy for users to buy the products those developers would be create. It's not like the early 2000's where you could launch a console without an online store, it's pretty much mandatory these days because both developers/publishers and consumers expect it to be there.
