The virtual reality soap operas of Silicon Valley continue as the world turns...
Last week, Meta’s CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, took to his personal Instagram account to review Apple’s Vision Pro headset (recorded - naturally - on his own Quest 3 headset).
Zuck later appeared on the Morning Brew podcast and called out “Apple Fanboys” as well (it all left me wondering if he’s taken a page from one of his pastime’s favorite CEOs - Dana White from the UFC?).
It’s both bold and reminiscent of tech critiques from the past, and Zuckerberg didn’t mince words - asserting that Meta’s Quest 3 headset surpasses Apple's offering in both value and performance.
Can Zuckerberg’s IG post sway markets?

Casualty Incidents (MCIs) present significant challenges to emergency medical services and healthcare systems. Effective training methods are crucial to improve preparedness, individual resilience, and response capabilities. While traditional training approaches have been widely used, newer methods such as virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), mixed reality (MR), and 3D tabletop exercises offer more immersive and interactive learning experiences.

MedEd DeepDive PODCAST: Innovative Training Methods for Mass Casualty Incident Preparedness

This podcast discusses a study that used the Web of Science to examine the increasing use of augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR) in medical education. The study explores the growth of research in each of these technologies, focusing on their applications in various medical fields and the specific competencies they are used to train. The authors find that VR research has grown significantly since the 1990s, driven by computing power and display technology advancements. On the other hand, research in AR has seen a rise since the advent of smartphones in 2008, which provide the necessary hardware for AR applications. The study also highlights the potential strengths of each technology for specific medical training scenarios, such as the use of VR for communication skills training and AR for practicing procedures like lumbar punctures.

Welcome To Today’s Episode The Role Of Augmented Reality In 2025

Augmented reality (AR) is transforming the grocery shopping experience by merging digital elements with the physical world. This technology is enhancing customer engagement, streamlining decision-making, and improving the overall shopping process. As more retailers adopt AR, grocery stores are becoming more interactive, informative, and efficient.

Enhancing Product Discovery and Information
One of the most significant advantages of AR in grocery stores is the ability to provide detailed product information instantly. Shoppers can use their smartphones or AR-enabled store displays to scan a product and receive real-time details, including nutritional facts, ingredient lists, and sourcing information. This feature is particularly useful for health-conscious consumers who want to ensure they are making informed choices. AR can also provide allergen warnings and suggest alternative products, making shopping more accessible for those with dietary restrictions.

Improving Customer Engagement and Experience
AR technology is making grocery shopping more interactive and engaging. Some stores use AR to create virtual experiences that entertain and educate customers. For example, scanning a QR code on a produce item might display a short video about the farm it came from, or scanning a bottle of wine could bring up tasting notes and food pairing recommendations. These features not only add a layer of fun to the shopping experience but also build trust between consumers and brands by providing transparency and authenticity.

Streamlining Navigation and In-Store Assistance
Finding specific products in a large Niemann’s grocery store can be time-consuming, but AR is helping shoppers navigate aisles more efficiently. Some retailers have implemented AR-powered navigation systems that allow customers to input their shopping list into an app, which then guides them to each item using digital markers displayed on their phone screens. This reduces frustration, saves time, and makes grocery shopping a smoother process. Additionally, AR can provide instant promotional updates, alerting customers to discounts or special offers as they walk through the store.

Enhancing Marketing and Personalized Shopping
Personalized marketing is another area where AR is making a significant impact. Grocery stores are leveraging AR to offer tailored promotions based on a shopper’s previous purchases. When a customer scans a product, they might receive customized discounts or loyalty rewards, encouraging repeat purchases and brand loyalty. Some brands have also developed AR-based interactive advertisements that engage shoppers with virtual games, quizzes, or immersive storytelling, making promotions more memorable and effective.

Facilitating Contactless and Smart Shopping
The integration of AR with smart shopping carts and self-checkout systems is helping to create a more seamless and contactless shopping experience. Shoppers can use AR to scan items as they add them to their cart, instantly viewing prices, nutritional details, and available promotions. Some AR systems also allow for virtual try-ons of products, such as visualizing how a meal kit might look when prepared, giving customers greater confidence in their purchasing decisions.

Conclusion
Augmented reality is revolutionizing grocery shopping by enhancing product discovery, improving navigation, and making the overall experience more interactive and efficient. As technology continues to advance, AR will likely become a standard feature in grocery stores, bridging the gap between digital convenience and in-store shopping. The adoption of AR not only benefits customers by providing greater convenience and information but also helps retailers build stronger relationships with their shoppers through immersive and personalized experiences.

The Downtime | Episode 12: Digital Transformation

A track involving a jazz combo and an all electric band, mixing jazz and electronic music with world music and prog rock, with a modest role for a cuckoo clock. It is a simulated live performance - no musicians were harmed, the picture is fake. I thought we'd better mention it, just to avoid a row.
Thanks to photogtony for the cuckoo clock (freesound). Infinite thanks to Wietze Krikke for advice on composition and production, and for guiding me through the mixing process.

Enjoy!
