Is the future VR ... or AR?

from Too Embarrassed to Ask Hosted by Recode

Google virtual reality boss Clay Bavor talks with Kara Swisher and Lauren Goode about why the company has invested in projects like the low-cost VR headset Cardboard and the augmented reality platform Tango. Bavor says VR and AR are two points on the same spectrum and that Google is focused on a long-term vision where the technologies will converge and provide value for all users — not just gamers. He also talks about what he thinks of Apple's recently announced ARKit, why he shoots VR videos of his children and why badly designed VR experiences can make you nauseous.
