Maximum PC: Some exciting things are happening in the world of virtual reality, and we're not just talking about the Oculus Rift. Multiple companies are jumping on board with the VR movement, including chip maker Qualcomm, which unveiled its Vuforia mobile vision platform that developers can use to build augmented reality (AR) applications for a new generation of digital hardware.
Qualcomm’s latest SoC for Windows laptops is now official, and it’s called the Snapdragon 8cx Gen 3 Compute Platform.
An unlikely competitor has entered the field.
Microsoft, Google, and Qualcomm are unpleased with Nvidia buying Arm. Qualcomm is the most resolute to see the acquisition blocked.
These are "Obvious" improvements to VR and therefore not patentable
I was just posting about VR overlays yesterday and I found at least I had at least 2 other posts describing the same thing as far back as early 2014
I have not gone over my posts from 2013 yet but there may be others
So either, they read my posts of this or they are obvious improvements to existing products
Either way, they are not patentable by qualcomm
So relax, this is coming to Windows as well
Android and IOS only? No interest here.
