The End of Screens
It may surprise you to learn that one of the biggest technology announcements in the last few months has nothing to do artificial intelligence. While critics and supporters continue to fret and stir over the latest capabilities ChatGPT has, a 60-person Tel Aviv-based start-up quietly began demoing an economic disruptor that could be equally as impactful.
Spacetop is the new product from Sightful, a company that specializes in augmented reality. It is a computer keyboard attached to oversized goggles designed like chunky sport sunglasses. Spacetop’s technology allows you to see multiple virtual computer screens floating above your keyboard when you wear the goggles.
Spacetop, as opposed to virtual reality, which immerses you in an artificial environment, is an example augmented reality, which incorporates virtual elements into real life. When you wear the goggles at Starbucks, you can still see everything around you. There are now floating computer screens above your Macchiato.
