Our team drew a lot of inspiration from the message shared by Marc Andreessen of Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) about this being the “time to build”. Our team believes these undoubtedly challenging times are an opportunity for developers, hackers, and creators to build innovative augmented reality (AR) applications and experiences.
We wanted to share some great quotes about augmented reality from great thinkers that inspire us everyday, with the hopes that they will inspire more people to create, build, invest, design and engage with this exciting frontier technology:
“I regard [AR] as a big idea, like the smartphone. The smartphone is for everyone, we don’t have to think the iPhone is about a certain demographic, or country or vertical market: it’s for everyone. I think AR is that big, it’s huge. I get excited because of the things that could be done that could improve a lot of lives.” — Tim Cook
“I feel that Augmented reality is perhaps the ultimate computer.” — Satya Nadella
