An Israeli startup has invented the world's first augmented reality laptops. Instead of a screen folding up, there is instead just a pair of glasses that are wired to the keyboard. When you put them on and in front of you appears the equivalent of like a hundred inch television screen. And they have some street cred here because before this, they were both at Magic Leap for years.
The Sunday Times’ tech correspondent Danny Fortson brings on Tamir Berliner and Tomer Kahan, founders of Sightful, to talk about inventing the world’s first “augmented reality” laptop (4:30), the end of the screen (8:10), what they learned from Magic Leap (10:30), making technology disappear (12:00), raising money (18:30), the advantages of starting the company in Israel (21:45), Apple’s big announcement (25:00), getting past the “Glasshole” problem (26:15), their backgrounds (29:00), and selling the first 1,000 laptops (31:30)
