Seeing is not about believing, it’s about getting access

It wasn’t too long ago when Theoretical Physicist, Michio Kaku said, “Today’s clunky smart glasses will be replaced by smart contact lenses. We’ll command them by voice, blinking, or even thinking, to interact visually in 3-D with the internet.” We see companies race to compress, enhance, and improve the user experience in AR glasses.
