And this is why the Humane Pin was always a dumb idea. Apple, Google, Samsung, etc just needed to license some LL and diffusion models, then slap camera on all the headphones they make. Boom - instant humane like experience that’s faster, lighter, better looking, has better battery, etc etc.
No futuristic projector UI, but that thing was pretty busted anyway.
The big problem with the humane pin was that it was trying to do processing on the teeny tiny device and that used all it's battery up in 15 mins generated 300 MW of heat.
