    Isn’t that one of the enterprise cases where it’s actually been used?

    Having schematics directly overlayed onto something I’m working on seems pretty helpful to me.

      I’m not sure it’s actually being used, beyond C suite wanting something cool to happen and pretending it did happen.

      have you ever done any kind of fine-detail repair on anything? electronics, something with tiny screws, fixing paint on a decal… anything like that?

      minority report floating holograms sure might be useful for this, “random-ass non specialised hardware shoved on your face” is decidedly more of a diceroll

        I think he means repairs like washing machines, cars etc. It’s all very well looking up videos or pics of how to repair stuff, but often the video isn’t clear or fine quality enough

        An overlaid graphic on whatever you were repairing would be fucking amazing for some of the stuff I do

          yeah, tell me again how you’re going to be fucking around the inside of a washing machine with a goddamn apple vision pro strapped to your face

          but often the video isn’t clear or fine quality enough

          Wouldn’t it be great if 100x the effort that didn’t go into making the video clear or fine quality enough, instead didn’t go into making relevant flying, see-through overlay decals?

          Ultimately the reason it looks cool is that you’re comparing a situation of little effort being put into repair related documentation, to some movie scenario where 20 person-hours were spent making a 20-second repair fragment whereby 1 step of a repair is done.
