๐ซ๐ถ๏ธ I've been building an XR app for a real-world ad blocker using Snap @Spectacles. It uses Gemini to detect and block ads in the environment.
Itโs still early and experimental, but itโs exciting to imagine a future where you control the physical content you see.
๐โโ๏ธ I've gamified my own run so I can race my own ghost with the Meta Ray-Ban Display.
I built a web app for the glasses, loaded a previous GPX from Strava, and dropped game mechanics on top.
Pick up coins when you keep pace, sprint zones reward extra points if you push, and a mini leaderboard on the lens shows how you're tracking against your past self in real time.
Best part: it actually works. Seeing your ghost 20 m ahead is a way stronger nudge than any number on a watch. ๐
@rolandsmeenk haha yes! I did make a "simulator" to test some things (read automatic pacing). I also did some tests by bike. Today I did the full run ๐
@cmcwain Fair worry, but two things: it's a webapp, so no chunky flagship phone needed, browser running on the glasses.
Been wearing a lot of AR glasses, these feel ok. Honestly comfortable to run in.๎๎ป๎ป๎น๎
Built a WebXR shooting game for Meta Ray-Ban Display. No hands, no controllers - just your head rotation. Turns out years of AR development rewired my brain to think spatially even on non-AR hardware. Then realised - itโs a web app, why not make it work everywhere?

@krazyykrunal@MichaelPacifi20@Spectacles Same here! And people on the street don't even look at you. But if I wear a Vision Pro, I get a few different looks ๐คฃ
