Product lineup and Luma Ultra adoption

David Jiang, CEO of VITURE, joins Charlie, Ted, and Rony for a special Black Friday episode to discuss the breakout year for "display glasses" and why his company is betting on gamers, not just enterprise, to drive mass adoption. With VITURE now hitting shelves at Best Buy and flashing on billboards along Silicon Valley’s Highway 101, Jiang reveals the data behind the device’s surprising "stickiness"—average daily users are logging nearly three hours a day, often to play console games in bed or on the couch to avoid "social pressure" from family over occupying the main TV.

The conversation dives deep into the hardware reality check: why David believes "smart glasses" (like Meta Ray-Bans) and high-fidelity "display glasses" (like VITURE/XREAL) won’t merge into a single device for another decade. He breaks down the physics of weight thresholds—40g for all-day wear, 80g for session-based viewing, and 200g for full headsets—and explains why trying to force high-end compute into a Ray-Ban form factor today is a fool’s errand. David also unpacks VITURE’s new real-time 2D-to-3D AI conversion and why he views Android XR as the inevitable "destiny" for the open ecosystem.

In the news segment, the hosts debate Casio’s $600 AI hamster "Moflin" (cute but annoying), analyze why Snapchat can't monetize despite hitting 1 billion users, and discuss Disney's new autonomous robots roaming the parks.

• Real-time AI 2D-to-3D: New feature converts legacy content (YouTube, photos, retro games) into 3D on the fly.
• Weight Philosophy: Defines strict form-factor limits: 40g (glasses), 80g (media visor), 200g (VR headset).

• Casio's Moflin AI Pet—Charlie reviews the $600 emotional support robot; cute, but drives the dog crazy.
• Snapchat hits 1 Billion Users—massive reach milestone, yet the hosts debate why they still can't monetize like Meta.
• Disney's AI Robotics—autonomous characters like the "frozen snowman" begin roaming parks.
• Android XR & Samsung—Google Maps AR updates and the "Gear VR" revival signal a major ecosystem shift for 2026.
