Glasses like the Apple Vision Pro could revolutionize the way we interact with the digital world. In the latest episode of the Text Akademie’s AI podcast, René Vogel, known as «Mr. Vision,» explores the diverse possibilities and applications of this innovative technology.
AR and VR glasses can fundamentally change the way we interact with the digital world. In the latest edition of the AI podcast, journalist Christoph Soltmannowski talks to "Mr. Vision" René Vogel about the revolutionary possibilities of this technology. Glasses such as Apple's Vision Pro seamlessly connect digital content with the physical environment and are operated by eye, hand and voice control.
The influence of AR and VR on everyday life
René Vogel emphasizes that the Vision Pro is not only suitable for entertainment purposes, but also has serious applications in the business sector. For example, users can design virtual rooms or people with limited mobility can virtually explore their future home. The glasses make it possible to place multiple virtual screens in the room, which can be particularly useful for productivity on the move.
Despite the high price, Vogel considers the value of the glasses to be justified, especially in comparison to high-quality home cinema and computer systems. According to him, the Vision Pro marks a significant step towards the "spatial computing" proclaimed by Apple. This could fundamentally change the way we interact with digital content.
The "computer on your face"
Will "smart glasses" soon replace laptops? Vogel is convinced that the glasses have the potential to function as a fully-fledged computer. He sees many exciting applications coming our way.
The Video podcast "AI and society - paths into the new world" is produced by the Swiss Text Academy, which also offers courses on artificial intelligence. Two episodes are published monthly on Spotify , YouTube and other podcast platforms.
