Palmer Luckey tries on Meta's new VR Glasses in a demo and says "wow" "What's the weight on this." [100 grams] "These optics are doing a great job of projecting ambient reflections." "Wow, wow, that's way out there. Look at that." "Whoa, whoa, whoa. This supports DisplayPort over USB-C? There's a lot of people who have been asking for that for a very long time." "Wow."

He's saying rejecting, not projecting, I'm pretty sure.

Correct! The screens are polarized for the pancake optics, of course, but there is an additional polarizer/retarder scheme that rejects almost all ambient light as long as it isn't somehow polarized itself. The only reflections are from the first surface, hence eyecup option.

Current headsets with micro oled and pancake optics have issues with glare. Especially if it’s a bright white object over a dark background. Is that issue solved with these glasses?

Was great to see Palmer hyped about Meta’s latest VR progress after being the original inventor of Oculus headsets & VR pioneer from the start! 😎 @MetaVR_Official

What is the minimum spec for military grade AR. For realtime object racking and overlay? How far is this and the chips capabilities from that?
