Pune Army colonel’s credit card charged for Rs 3.8 lakh to Hong Kong hotel in fake traffic challan fraud

Google is turning Android XR into a visionOS rival with PC streaming and 3D avatars

Meanwhile, other models will show users information through in-lens displays, such as turn-by-turn directions and translation captions.

They support Android XR entertainment and productivity apps in a see-through interface with a 70-degree field of vision. Google will share details regarding Project Aura's launch next year.

VisionOs

 

Following the Vision Pro's failure to gain traction, tech giants such as Google, Meta, Apple, and Samsung have turned to smart glasses. However, installing cameras in eyeglasses still raises the same privacy concerns Google Glass raised over a decade ago.

 

Meanwhile, Valve recently renewed its focus on virtual reality with the Steam Frame headset, scheduled for release early next year. According to early previews, users will be able to sideload Android apps on the device, so it might indirectly support Android XR
