Very few of even the Microvision investors I talk to have actually tried 3D computing.
If you read this and haven't tried it yet, go to your nearest Microsoft store and try something 3D.
Will it be successful? It has to be. It's just better in every way...
How successful will large screens (and large interactive screens) with a tiny form factor and extremely low power consumption be? (very popular)
How successful will a scanning LiDAR be, that can identify friendly people and unlock at your front door sometimes and lock it at others? It can help with security, and with all kinds of automation?
- Large screens, tiny form factor
- Large interactive screens, tiny form factor
- Scanning LiDAR (for security, automation, mapping, self driving vehicles)
- Near Eye displays for 3D computing.
Key components for multiple emerging technologies... How successful can that be?
Probably as successful as cameras have been...
I'm going to hang on to my shares in this company for a long time...
Some may be prone to mope because the fuse it lit, and the rocket has yet to launch.
Not even the most awesome products hit the ground in a frenzy. A recent example is Instantpot : Founded in 2009, started moving in 2014, a frenzy in 2017. (Overnight success! says the media.)
We're moving, Moviphone has had deliverables for 29 days. (And already got great press over it.)
Good charts of adoption are difficult to find ( partly because, as you'll see, they're difficult to fit on a screen and be readable at both ends.)
So, I found this page from PetaPixel. It has a couple of very interesting charts of adoption.
This is of CAMERA Sales.... Sucks to be in cameras? unless you think you just went back to sort of normal from a decade of amazing.
Just remember when you're looking at this, that people only take pictures because they like to SHARE them.
If we add cameras that are included on cellphones, we get a bit of a different picture. The GOLD area is cameras on phones..... except they fade out at the top of the graph.
Well, happily, they put something on there so we could see the top of the graph --- but the screen graphics kind of break down. Well, there you are with cellphones included.
That's how a market grows, how it can grow.... and in my humble opinion, Picoprojection is in the year 2003 on this graph. (Don't forget there's also near eye displays, LiDAR, Interactive Displays, and whatever the Black Box project is.)
