Jacqueline gave us an update yesterday on the latest with Apple’s ARKit and Google’s ARCore.
These AR “browsers” are coming soon to Apple and Google phones.
We think this is a big deal because for the first time AR developers will have standard environments to build to that are already in the hands of 1bn people.
Jacqueline wrote a bit about all of this on her Medium blog, here and here.
Throughout our conversation yesterday, I was a little unclear about how all of this would work from a UI perspective.
But then we watched this on our conference room TV and it all became a lot clearer to me.
By the way, if you like that video, you can back the developer on Kickstarter. They only have three days left on their project.
At USV, we have been slow to embrace AR and VR, as we have had a hard time seeing how all of this cool technology becomes mainstream.
With ARKit and ARCore, that path seems a lot more clear now and Jacqueline is leading our effort to talk to companies that are working in this space.
