Back when Magic Leap was at the top of the hype cycle, a friend of mine did some napkin calculations to see what kind of computing power their headset would need to do what they were claiming they could do. The result was way out of the league of any known mobile processor at the time. I think closer to dual desktop GPUs of that era at least.

So this article is saying two M1 Pro CPUs. Ok, let's say that's sufficient. The batteries required to power two M1s are going to be pretty big. Not sure anyone is going to want all that weight (and heat!) on their head.

Maybe 5 years from now processing speeds and power consumption will be sufficient.
