The Journey to the Center of the Natural Machine

About

From the Oldowan rock to the supercomputer, tools have guided our brain’s evolution, developing it into the most complicated object in the known universe. The human brain today is a natural machine that defines the world as we know it. Journey with a friend on an augmented reality headset to come face-to-face with the earliest days of human brain development, and travel through to its evolution as the fulcrum of our extraordinary and always-growing abilities to create, communicate, and collaborate.

Meta

Meta has been defining augmented reality (AR) since 2012. Meta began the advancement of the AR marketplace with the first see-through glasses that enabled users to use natural hand interactions to intuitively move and manipulate 3-D content.

This new paradigm—based on established neurointerface principles and designed to adjust to each user’s individual computing experience—promises to enhance and improve individual and group work productivity in ways never before imagined.
