The video is real. It’s a recording of the actual software being used live.

Things that are different irl vs the video:

1: Experience irl is way cooler. We use it internally for meetings. It’s amazing to take a photo on your phone and see it show up in the air in front if you. It’s awesome to see someone rez in and start walking around. It’s fun to put your hands up, start talking, and watch 3d models and images show up. The playfulness and interactivity is much more exciting in person than in the video.

2: The field of view on existing AR hardware is limited. Everyone working in AR hears this to the point of exhaustion, but anyone trying AR for the first time can’t help but notice it. So, the experience is different than in the video because you can only see AR through a smallish view. This will, of course, improve soon.

3: The video ui isn’t rendered additively and has some added zing that is less performant when using in real life (eg higher antialiasing)
