CES 2022: Microsoft, Qualcomm Partner on Metaverse Chip for AR Glasses

Qualcomm said on Tuesday that it is working with Microsoft to develop a custom chip that will control lightweight augmented reality glasses for consumers and businesses to use in Metaverse applications.

At the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon said at a press conference that the two companies will cooperate to integrate custom chips with the software required by developers. Combine to create a virtual world in which people can work and play.

He said that the future equipment of the cooperation will be used in conjunction with a Microsoft software product called Mesh, allowing users to project their lifelike portraits into another user’s headset, making them feel like two people are in the same room. Future hardware will also use Qualcomm’s software called Snapdragon Spaces, which helps perform basic augmented reality functions, such as drawing physical spaces so that digital objects can be overlaid on them, and hand tracking so users can Operate these digital objects through gestures.

“For many years, we have been discussing the possibility of wearable augmented reality devices, which will expand in scale.” Amon is one of the few major technology executives who will not cancel his physical presence at the trade show. In the live conversation, he said that he was on the stage in Las Vegas.
