Now augmented reality can be, &#8220;Always on, always augmented,&#8221; says CTO Peter Meier.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>This first-of-its-kind collaboration will improve nearly all aspects of an Augmented Reality experience, yielding performance increases in speed, precision and power consumption, with up to 60 times faster initialization, more than an AR app running on existing platforms \u2013 the highest to date in the mobile industry. Both Metaio and ST-Ericsson strongly believe that working together will accelerate the adoption of Augmented Reality as a consumer technology.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe AREngine will do for Augmented Reality what the GPU did years ago for the gaming industry,\u201d said Metaio CTO Peter Meier. \u201cThis is a great leap in the AR space, and we strongly believe that the AR Engine working with ST-Ericsson platforms will help realize the Augmented City &#8211; the idea of a completely connected environment powered by Augmented Reality and made possible with next-gen, optimized mobile platforms.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Check out the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.metaio.com\/press\/press-release\/2013\/metaio-brings-worlds-first-augmented-reality-accelerated-chipset-to-market-signs-agreement-with-st-ericsson-to-integrate-future-mobile-platforms\/\">full press release<\/a> here.<\/p>\n<div class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Posts\"><H3>Related Posts<\/H3><ul class=\"entry-meta\"><li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"Ray-Ban Facebook Glasses: Good, Bad, and not quite the AR\" href=\"https:\/\/www.perivision.net\/wordpress\/2021\/09\/ray-ban-facebook-glasses-good-bad-and-not-quite-the-ar\/\" rel=\"bookmark\">Ray-Ban Facebook Glasses: Good, Bad, and not quite the AR<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"SPOSTARBUST-Related-Post\"><a title=\"TikTok parent Co.
