State of the ART – Issue #8

Value through usefulness: the next generation of AR tools

From the AR hardware ecosystem to the quest for real-world solutions

The field of AR hardware solutions is one of the most challenging for the AR startups’ ecosystem since it is very hard to develop human-like computer vision systems, while research and development take a long time and huge investments that only bigger companies as Apple or Facebook can afford to bear over many years.
Having said that, Daqri recent company closure comes as no surprise: the $15k AR enterprise helmet embedding an outdated technology was definitely off-market compared to more sophisticated and lower-priced glasses released by Microsoft, Magic Leap or NReal.

The AR/VR sector is highly competitive, technology changes fast, and businesses, as well as consumers, demand tools that can bring real, tangible benefits. The most powerful devices for AR applications to bet on right now are smartphones and tablets that guarantee easy access to ready-to-use solutions and allow to go beyond the POC stage. This is what JoinPad focuses on as we have recently shown together with Samsung at IFA Berlin, the biggest consumer and home electronics expo in Europe.
Other examples of practical AR applications are Google’s AR maps just updated with the new Live View feature, and Facebook’s partnership with eyewear giant Luxottica for stand-alone Smart Glasses which should come out in 2023. Microsoft also announced the release of HoloLens 2 later in September, which should boost AR enterprise adoption.

While waiting for tech giants to come up with cutting-edge Smart Glasses, the way ahead is to develop useful AR applications for devices people already have like smartphones and tablets we already mentioned. Maybe one day the flat screen will disappear as Peter Diamandis writes in his visionary article for Singularity Hub, but it is not going to happen exactly today. The AR ecosystem must stay true to the vision of an immersive future while being flexible enough to face challenges and seize new opportunities quickly.
