#3Could you imagine how this kind of technology might change something as boring and frustrating as Ikea furniture assembly?
Ikea tries hard to avoid using text in its instructions, because the products are sold in so many countries. So its assembly instructions tend to be very constrained 2D illustrations with simple pictograms.
But it would be so much easier if you could just slap on some AR glasses and visualize in 3D what your next step should be!

You can also find many fans of IKEA instructions.
Consider how you would deal with written instructions that appear to contradict the picture instructions and you'll see why.

#6This is the only space I see _R taking off for a while. The cost of development is still too high for consumers (and developing for them). Using it for training and virtual modeling is where it shines...for now.

#7whats stopping them from installing a rail along X,Y,Z axis around the build area (with a robot arm), and having the robot build up the wall instead of humans?

#9A similar surprisingly novel case for AR headsets: trimmming hedges into complex shapes.
In an AR headset the final desired design is overlayed within the hedge, and you trim the parts outside. Now try to imagine how you might accomplish something similar without an AR headset. It would be very difficult.
