We've finally hit the tipping point for VR/AR! My thoughts on the Meta Rayban Display AR/AI glasses & more
05/10/2025 | 27 mins.
Hey Friend!
It's my belief that we've just hit the tipping point for mainstream smart glasses adoption thanks to Meta Rayban Displays and some other advancements which I talk about in this episode.
I'm on sabbatical atm but couldn't help but capture and immortalise my thoughts on this very interesting time in history for VR/AR.
I hope you're having a great day wherever you are in the world and I'll speak to you in the next one.
