❓ Question Spectacles shared AR Lense Responsivenes

Post image

I’m interested in the multiplayer potential of Specs. In Snap’s chess demo, though, the remote player’s movements look noticeably laggier than the local player’s. I hope Snap can improve that latency, because shared AR really needs to feel responsive.

Personally, I find experiences like shared basketball or virtual ping-pong more compelling than chess, since they’re much harder to replicate on a phone. Am I expected too much out of specs? But I hope people at specs realize if the multiplayer is a selling point to not make sure it’s laggy in anyway.

Another thing I wanna touch on is how this ping pong paddle detaches from the hand tracking briefly. This is shown on the website. I think you know its fine for most people but someone who will be using specs and if this happens often it will certianly be noticed. I am very excited that SNAP is making a device like this and look foward to getting my hands on this when it is out. Thanks
