At the 2022 Snapdragon Summit, Qualcomm and Niantic have announced their partnership with one another for an immersive glasses experience.
While the companies haven’t mentioned anything regarding a release date for a consumer product, Niantic has showed off reference designs for AR glasses.
The most recent design looks sleek, and lightweight, which is due to the recently announced Snapdragon AR2 platform. The new platform, which Qualcomm says it built from the ground up, will reportedly allow hardware makers to release thinner AR glasses.
And Niantic announced that in 2023 the LightShip visual positioning system will work with the Snapdragon Spaces XR developer platform with the hope to help developers create future experiences. This means that developers using the Snapdragon Spaces XR developer platform can easily add the Lightship system to their games or experiences.
Following this explanation, Niantic gave us a glimpse of what this experience could look like.
