summary
Predicts a migration of minutes from phones into VR headsets now (Facebook Minecraft on Gear VR) and AR glasses in 3–5 years, with concrete demos: ODG + Caterpillar overlays CAD on tractors, Meta and HoloLens enable draggable holograms and virtual screens, and sensor advances like Google Tango and eye trackers that let users select and “type” with gaze. Voice assistants evolve — Viv generates API glue in real time — and practical wins include TripIt catching a canceled flight and Echo ordering supplies.
