A demo on Snap’s website shows how the fourth generation of Spectacles inserts colorful shapes and words floating in front of you as you see the real world. There’s one caveat to these impressive glasses, though: they aren’t for sale. Instead, Snap said it is taking applications from creators “looking to push the limits of immersive AR experiences.” The AR spectacles feature dual 3D waveguide displays and a 26.3-degree diagonal field of view, with an automatically adjustable display that can go up to 2,000 nits of brightness, both indoors and outdoors....
