I feel like "network effects" in the metaverse will be compounded cubic: the nodes, the edges, then the third mysterious component emerging from the shared hall

I feel like "network effects" in the metaverse will be compounded cubic: the nodes, the edges, then the third mysterious component emerging from the shared hallucination itself ;)
- kurthr 5y agoI suspect the upcoming HW need of XR metaverse is in the foveal rendering required for low latency retina resolution immersive HMD. For cost/weight/power that probably means eye-tracking, which is gold standard for ad tracking and marketing attention metrics. Give away the hardware to high status college students and sell their attention metrics to advertisers. Very FB! Of course you need content too, but users can provide that, right?

Note that it is dual HDR LCD with miniLED backlights not OLED as described, but it is retina and foveated rendering with eye-tracking from Tobi.
