If only there was a way to prevent this
- randallsquared 3y agoAvoiding any walking or driving? Sure, I guess, but most people can't stay at home forever any more than they could avoid using a phone.
- bpye 3y agoYou can still walk or drive - just take the headset off to do it…
- pinkmuffinere 3y agoHow are you supposed to know when the headset is going to fail though??? I guess in some failure modes you might anticipate it failing, but surely not all… (/s)
- Detrytus 3y agoBut walking with your headset on can be a part of the value proposition, by adding some metadata to what you see. Imagine being shown directions in an unfamiliar place. Or seeing a distant bus and being told that this is the bus you're trying to catch. Once the technology becomes popular people will find a lot of reasons to walk with their headsets on.
- dimask 3y agomaybe with less intrusive and lighter optical AR glasses that do not cover all your field of view, walking around the city would be more possible. But expecting to go around the streets or even drive with a huge AR headset is unreasonable for our times.
- lm28469 3y agoThe people who wish for this future are a complete mistery to me.
- slimrec77 3y agoThe problem is I get all this already on my phone without wearing a $3500 mask. It doesn't even make sense. What do you want blinking arrows on the ground to show the way instead of the much superior way of just looking at google maps now?
- HeatrayEnjoyer 3y agoWho would want such a world? This is technology looking for a problem to solve instead of the other way around.
- netsharc 3y agoI guess a future version will see that you're sitting in a driver's seat and will go crazy telling you to take it off. Although I wonder what it can do, going dark will be dangerous if someone is actually driving, I suppose it can threaten to revoke your device license..
