I met with >50 Companies in January 2024 and decided to do a video with The AR Show's Jason McDowall to discuss them. In Part 2, I will be discussing optics companies (not already discussed in Part 1)
Introduction Today, rather than shooting through AR/MR headsets, I pointed my camera skyward toward the Solar Eclipse. They were forecasting a lot of cloud cover in the Dallas area, and…
I met with >50 Companies in January 2024 and decided to do a video with The AR Show's Jason McDowall to discuss them. In Part 1, I discuss 15 of the companies working on headsets.
Many media outlets, large and small, both text and video, use this blog as a resource for technical information on mixed reality headsets. I follow up with a discussion the "Information Density issue" of virtual versus physical monitors touched on in the LTT video.
My last article Apple Vision Pro’s Optics Blurrier & Lower Contrast than Meta Quest 3, as should be expected, drew many comments (on my blog and elsewhere) saying that the Apple Vision Pro (AVP) was sharper than the Meta Quest 3 (MQ3). While I had checked it many times before releasing the previous article, I decided to go back and check again. This time, I used various applications on the AVP to show the same image with a side-by-side comparison. Surprisingly, displaying an image stored on the AVP from a folder gave me different results than other methods/apps.
I have taken many thousands of pictures through dozens of different headsets, and I'm noticing when looking closely at the pictures that the Apple Vision Pro (AVP) image is a little blurry. So I decided to compare the AVP to the Meta Quest 3 by taking the same image at the same size in both headsets.
I often say and write, "The simple test patterns are often the toughest for display systems to get right because the eye will know when something is wrong. If a flat white image is displayed and you see color(s), you know something is wrong.
I am trying to capture "through the optics" pictures of the AVP, and it is unveiling both interesting information on how the AVP works and the second test pattern I tried "broke" the foveated rending of the AVP.
Today, I picked up my Apple Vision Pro (AVP) at the Apple Store and iFixit posted their first in a series of "Extreme Unboxing" of the Apple Vision Pro.
For this 2nd article on CES, I will go into more depth on the Sony XR in contrast to the Apple AVP, Digilens's new glasses, EverysIght, Mojie, and TCL's newest color MicorLED glasses.

Introduction and Updates January is always extremely busy both with CES (last week) and the SPIE AR/VR/MR (next week) conferences and exhibitions. Not only is there the time to attend…
Humane AI (Humane, hereafter) combines the mid-2010s failed concept of using a laser projector to project on the body with the early 2000s failed projector phone (something I wrote about in 2013), only they left out the phone's flat panel display and have more feeble processing than a good smartphone. Rational people wonder what this does that a good smartphone can't do much better, and you can count me as one of these people.
Introduction I planned to wrap up my first pass coverage of the Apple Vision Pro (AVP) with my summary and conclusions based on prior articles. But the more I thought…
