With all the current talk of the #envision app's imminent demise, I decided to do the adult thing and, you know, ask them what was going on rather than spread more complaining and speculation.
In short, we've been told that all of the existing app's functions will be merged into #ally, including the offline features most of regularly use. The current app isn't going away any time soon. (1/2)
More #VR testing on #Fedora with #Envision and #Monado performance is pretty close to what I have with #SteamVR on Windows. Even got my full body tracking working, only small downside atm, no chaperone... a bit dangerous in my small office and its a bit more blurry.
It is with great disappointment that I report: #VR on #Linux just isn't ready yet. It would be, if #Valve would fix #SteamVR up to the same standard as the #Windows build, but in it's current state it's very restricted.
#Envision, #Monado, #OpenComposite, all these things are great, and they get you 98% of the experience. It works better than SteamVR for crying out loud.
But it's that 2% of issues that will make you go back to Windows. I hate to admit it, but it's the truth.

Are you a #master #manipulator?
Do you have #ambitions of being the #god of the #universe?
Can you #envision yourself rising above #greatness and #grandeur?
Are you capable of unveiling the specialities within yourself?
Good. You're exactly who I'm looking for.
Because you already have been one.
[Focus on the #EnVision mission] Why have #Venus and Earth evolved so differently? This is the question to be answered by the EnVision #SpaceMission of the European Space Agency - ESA, scheduled for launch in 2031.
To this end, the European #probe will carry several instruments - including an imaging #spectrometer, to which IRAP staff are contributing. Observations will be made in the UV and IR domains, in order to monitor temporal variations in #surface temperature and gas concentrations within the #atmosphere - and thus gain a better understanding of interactions between the Venusian atmosphere and surface.

A cet effet, la #sonde européenne embarquera plusieurs instruments - un #spectromètre imageur notamment, auquel contribuent les personnels de l'IRAP. Des #observations seront effectuées dans les domaines UV et IR afin de suivre les variations temporelles de la température de #surface et des concentrations de gaz au sein de l'#atmosphère - et donc, de mieux comprendre les interactions entre l'atmosphère et la surface vénusiennes.

Před pár dny jsme měli v našem vědeckém konsorciu vedeném Martinem Ferusem z @heyrovskeho-ustav.bsky.social pořádný důvod k oslavě! Povedlo se totiž dotáhnout do konce přípravu prototypu součástek pro spektrometr #VenSpec-H pro evropskou sondu #EnVision, která bude zkoumat Venuši! 🥳
Hmm, are they trying to clear out remaining stock of Google Glass?
"If you are a user of #Envision Glasses, and know of a friend/family member who would also be interested in using the Glasses to meet their needs, take some time to encourage them to acquire a pair of their own. They'll get 15% off their purchase of the Envision Glasses, and you'll receive a $200 gift card as a thank-you!

[#EnVision: en route to #Venus 👍] On Tuesday, the European Space Agency - ESA awarded Thales Alenia Space a contract to build the EnVision probe destined for Venus. The onboard instruments will study the #planet's inner core, mantle and atmosphere, as well as their interactions, with unrivalled precision. Objective: to understand a planet's evolution towards #habitability - or uninhabitability.
[#EnVision : en route pour #Vénus 👍] Ce mardi, l' European Space Agency - ESA a attribué à Thales Alenia Space un contrat de construction de la sonde EnVision à destination de Vénus. Les instruments embarqués étudieront le noyau interne, le manteau et l'atmosphère de la #planète ainsi que leurs interactions, avec une précision inégalée. Objectif : comprendre l'évolution d'une planète vers l'#habitabilité - ou l'inhabitabilité.

Well, this is kinda cool! Sadly, I missed the webinar, (had things I had to take care of this afternoon), but apparently I was an #Envision community award winner! I sure didn't do anything to beta test, provide feedback, or help intended to get anything, but It's kind of fun when helping an exciting tech company is rewarded.

I was just thinking... we currently have Be My AI from Be My Eyes, Access AI from Aira, Seeing AI from Microsoft, and Ally from Envision. And guess what, they are all currently totally free to use! Man, how lucky we are to have these great tools for our toolbox! For those who remember... even though it was a great app in its time, we have come a long way since TapTapSee. #BeMyEyes #Aira #SeeingAI #Envision #Tools #Blind
Envision AI. Envision is creating an AI personal assistant that you can name and personalize to your liking. They want it available not only to those using their glasses, but also to those using their free app. They call it Ally. Ally is currently in Beta, and I was just approved to be on the growing beta team. Since it is a beta, it does make mistakes, but it is getting better over time. Its just amazing on the number of different tools we have to choose from to help us accomplish everyday task! 😄, #Envision #Ally #AI #Personal #Assistant #Tool #Task
So, I'm beta testing the Ally feature on the #Envision Glasses . It's pretty cool! Earlier, I decided to see what all coffees I had in my cabinet. I picked them up, and the ally correctly identified all but one. I don't fault it for the one because the bag is runnning low, and the label could be obscured. It was amazing to, hands free, stand at my cabinet and ID items. Game changer! @letsenvision
