I Demoed The New Snap Spectacles, And The Future Of AR Glasses Never Looked More Promising
ZDNet, Thursday, October 24th, 2024
A world where your glasses seamlessly blend digital artifacts over reality may not be far off. Here's how my demo went.
Although virtual reality (VR) headsets allow for immersive, unique experiences, the reality of a world where we walk around with a massive headset is clearly not the most feasible. Instead, the ability to have your glasses display augmented reality (AR) experiences that enhance your everyday life is a lot more compelling, and the Snap Spectacles are a step towards that.
I had the opportunity to test out the Spectacles at Qualcomm's Snapdragon Summit this week, and the experience was a fun, exciting glimpse into what everyday AR glasses could feel (but not so much look) like in the near future.
