Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

You are mostly correct. The quest can detect walls and furniture, so there are some fun looking irl platformer game demos, but nothing big yet. Developers have only just been granted access to the camera feeds.
The raybans have sold 2m units. I think the target market is instagramers not XR enthusiasts.
Meta rolled back furniture detection .. and "passthrough" means the camera feeds... You can't access individual cameras just the whole processed image at the end. It's not like I can request just one video feed or something.
Yes. The consumer quest is mainly an overlay AR device at the moment with little environmental information being added.
But combine the quest technology and software with rayban form factor and then Meta have a very strong AR device. All the building block are there.
