New XR Hardware

Zach Wendt

A quick overview of headset launches and announcements in the past month. I’ll include the upcoming announcements on Pico 4 Pro, Lenovo VRX (and any other highlights) from Lenovo Tech World ‘22 and AWE EU 2022.

I’ll also quickly summarize the announced capabilities and specs of Quest Pro, so Paul can focus on the parts he directly worked with.

Meta Connect 2022

Matt Summers and Zach Wendt

We’re putting this last, since there’s more than enough topics and news to go over. We’re sure you’ve heard some interesting and/or incorrect takes from all the media coverage, and many of us have attended some presentations. We’re going to try and get through all/most of the ~30 developer sessions before the meeting, and point you towards our favorites.

All presentations and developer sessions are available online: https://metaconnect.com/
