This is super cool tech! I'm surprised how many people here knocking the glasses for being "too thick" when it's clearly this is a huge improvement on previous attempts at AR like the hololens. And to be honest it looks fairly comparable to some of the "hipster" glasses people willing choose to wear today...
I'd be interesting in knowing what the battery life of this thing is... I get that the compute is being done on the puck, but there seems to be almost no room for battery in those lenses... And even the puck looks small to be honest... Surely no more than a couple of hours of power, likely quite a bit less.
I also wonder what the latency is like between the puck and glasses... Latency is such an important aspect of creating a convincing AR experience and judging by the video the Verge posted it looks like latency is pretty bad. I thought the reason compute for AR/VR is typically done on device is because it's the quickest and most reliable way to do it.
