Apple has yet again made a technological Leap with this revolutionary product, akin to home computers decades ago. It is NOT just one technology alone, but a combination of SEVERAL technologies rolled into a single product. I guess enough is said by many on the product features, & promises or hype will be known only when it ships in USA at early 2024.
Competitors will have serious issues to produce an equal product as the Apple product is made up of several technologies, & will need tech specialization in their respective tech fields, as well as supply chains that can produce the miniature & even nano parts, to come together to create just an equal product. They will attempt to BACK-ENGINEER the product, by breaking apart each part & learn from it. It will take time, but Apple for sure are already onto the 2nd or 3rd generation of this product, to stay ahead of competitors.
My post is more about how such TECH -spatial computing, when combined with even more tech advances, may progress Humanity even further, & engineers should NOT be content to merely copy such product as it is, but to build such technology even further.
A)Military Industrial Complex.
When this product is combined with other sensors mounted on helmuts, such as infra-red, microwave to see thru walls, sound, etc, it will provide the soldier total tactical battle information at his fingertips, to survive & operational success.
B)Security agencies
This product can be linked to Police servers & Artificial Intelligence for immediate information data on suspects apprehended - history, face & even finger-prints or chemical deposits on suspect's fingers, etc. So too sensors that can pick up emotional stress - blood pressure, temp, etc. Also, with its 3d spatial recreation with AI, it may even be able to replicate a crime scene of how a victim was attacked, where the suspect went, etc
C)Medical Science
This product may help those with vision loss to see again when combined with Tesla's brain implant. Already, this product is packed with eye biology. It is thru light that images are form upon the eyes by wearers of this product. Equally, instead of light falling upon eyes, such light are already an electrical signal which can be sent directly to the optic nerves (controlled by the brain implant) which then sends it to the brain which translates nerve impulses to form an image ( within the brain itself & thus sight)
Also, it may help surgeons as this product thru AI can identify parts by chemical biological composition or decay at light speed, or even thru a robot with steady hands/apparatus, to remotely perform surgeries.
The uses of such tech when combined with other tech are many. For opportunists, the money does not lay with this product alone, but what this product, which is of a revolutionary foundation, lays a path for advances & opportunities to come.
