The secretive Project Iris device could arrive as soon as 2024.
Google is reportedly working on an augmented reality headset. Codenamed Project Iris, the technology could ship as early as 2024. Similar to those in development by Meta and Apple, Google’s device uses outward-facing cameras to fuse computer graphics with a real-world video feed, creating the mixed reality experience currently lacking in AR glasses. As reported by The Verge, the early Project Iris prototype, which apparently looks like a pair of battery-powered ski goggles, uses a custom Google processor running on Android. A senior software engineer job listing, however, suggests a unique AR operating system is in development at the company.
