Mark Zuckerberg introduced the new Quest Pro headset which is priced at $1,500. He also took a shot at Apple's 'Walled Garden.'
stems from the 15% to 30% cut Apple collects from in-app transactions made by users of apps installed from the App Store.
Zuckerberg sees VR and Augmented Reality as the building blocks of a new platform that could be found on a new device that could become more popular than the smartphone. First, let's tell you that AR allows users to see computer-generated data superimposed on top of a live video feed. A good example of this is Google Maps'"Live View" which can be activated while walking.
Users see the view in front of them thanks to a rear camera. On top of that image are arrows that give the user navigation directions while other computer-generated icons point out landmarks and notable locations.Apple's upcoming headset, nothing more than a rumor at this point, will reportedly be powered by an Apple M2 chip and could feature 16GB of memory. Rumored pricing has Apple's headset costing over $2,000 and perhaps reaching $3,000.
After these headsets are released, it appears that the next item on the agenda is AR glasses similar to Google Glass. Many see AR glasses eventually replacing the smartphone as the glasses can project data into your eyes while doing everything that a smartphone can do. Apple is supposedly working on AR glasses although they are believed to be a few years away.
Zuckerberg made it sound as though Meta is also working on a similar product."The fundamental technologies across the stack to build augmented reality glasses are coming together. We’ve got displays, sensors, silicon, AI, and more," the CEO said.to the world releasing"a day in the life of" video that showed how the specs could handle the things that a smartphone could do.
