TIKTOK OWNER BYTEDANCE IS REPORTEDLY BUILDING ITS OWN MIXED REALITY GOGGLES

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

ByteDance is reportedly working on mixed reality goggles designed to layer digital objects over users' view of the real world to compete directly with Meta's upcoming mixed reality products. They will be built by ByteDance's Pico, the creators of the Pico 4 VR headset. Pico will keep the device lightweight by offloading most of the computing work to a puck connected to the goggles over a wire. Current Pico headsets aren't sold in the US, and ByteDance may face pushback over a US release due to its ownership of TikTok.
