What’s Next for Mixed Reality: Glasses, Goggles, and More.

Speakers: Mat Honan, Editor in Chief, and James O'Donnell, AI hardware reporter.

Hear from MIT Technology Review editor in chief Mat Honan and AI hardware reporter James O’Donnell for a conversation about where our AR experiences are heading.
