I didn't realize there was a cat on the Psyche probe. That explains why it's so big.

If they can fit one, surely they can stuff more in there.

Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anyone has experience using smart glasses that provide multiple virtual monitors while coding for 8 or more hours.
I've seen demos and read articles about using such glasses for watching movies while on the plane, but I haven't found concrete information about real-life work scenarios like in the office, programming, etc., for extended periods.
The idea of having three 120" virtual monitors that disappear the moment you turn off your computer/laptop, and that won't harm your eyesight, sounds fantastic!
If anyone has tried this or has recommendations, I would love to hear about your experiences.
Thank you!

Are you saying that they can have multiple different views from the physical monitor?

I think at those prices I'll stick to my laptop screen.

My eyes already need (somewhat high) powered spectacles. Is this to be worn on top of that?

I saw in some videos on YouTube that they can be worn on top of glasses.

I bet that is going to be just as comfortable as it sounds.

When I read articles about VR glasses, my current conclusion is that they are not suitable for long periods of work. But yes, it would be interesting to try it out.

Like coding in a movie theatre. I like a more "intimate" experience. And what would the cat do?

Interesting. Between my migraine headaches and only having one eye, I won't be seeing the benefits of this technology any time soon.

I suspect if you think there is a guarantee there you are mistaken.

This sounds interesting. I would like to hear much more about this.

Interesting idea there.
Googling all I find in regards to development is people writing software that someone else will run on their smart glasses.
Excluding of course marketing claims which I would not look at.

I signed up for www.sightful.com many months ago. Haven't received any information for the last 2 months and past articles/videos disappear from their site. I'm concerned they are just developing enough in hope of being bought out by someone.
There are articles out there about moving toward working in A/VR. (I currently use 5 monitors and have been waiting for the next headset that will better support using A/VR for work. Augmented or passthrough keyboard view, etc.)
Here are some links. Hopefully they come through okay...

Just like our brains, our eyes try to use the least amount of energy as possible. We must force them to focus on different distances to avoid atrophy.

Thank you for these useful links and about your insights !

I did some research on this about 6 months ago. I had an opportunity to do some long term traveling but I can take that much time off and I couldn't take my full 4 monitor set up or work effectively from a tiny laptop. I also work with confidential information and can't have people looking over my shoulder. VR goggles would have been fantastic!
I can't quote any specific articles or videos, but my overall impression was that the tech just isn't ready yet. I really couldn't chance it. I'm not sure about the new Apple goggles, but who has $3,500 for an experiment?
