Where I worked the head of our BIM department used his apple phone to layout his house for new work. BTW those 'smart safety glasses for the trades' are a pipe dream. Maybe smart safety glasses for people who don't actually work. Safety glasses are a commodity and get broken / trashed a lot.

The guy uses the apple vision for wire runs, it’s super super useful - any AR can do it, it’s just accuracy and not being on a computer. The apple is the best at both currently. You could do the same with the oculus but it drifts more etc.

Sony just also released a rift or pc adapter to use the psVR2 on steam etc. they fire sold those headsets for like 200-300…. 4k OLED headset… yes…. Wish I got one

I use AR for limited site walks. I install regularly, this is interesting for low visible penetrations.
