One of the main reasons Metagate decided to focus on Augmented Reality (AR) instead of VR is quite simple. In AR, we enhance the real world without having to dedicate time and space to enter other worlds.
For Metagate, AR/XR will be the new interface for many emerging technologies like Web3, AI, and IoT, aligning our vision with the new definitions of Industry 5.0.
We are now integrating these technologies into the Meta Quest3 headsets. This video demonstrates what it could mean to combine AR/XR with other technologies like IoT and NFT POAP.
Yes, we find the Quest3 "better" than the VisionPRO in terms of cost, weight, hand tracking, and glasses management.
Development has been progressing rapidly in recent months, even surprising us. For example, we didn't expect such a positive response to hand tracking, which is very responsive and capable of breaking down barriers set by joysticks!
Finally, multiplayer for creating basic collaborative experiences (like playing chess in the same place!) unlocks an infinite number of use cases that we are eager to develop!
The best is yet to come!!
