He elaborated on his thoughts about what Cardboard taught . oking ahead, however, current smartphones can only do so much as portals to another world. His thinking indicates that believes that phones must be designed with VR in mind from the start. Finally, he related VR to building an operating system from scratch that must work with various hardware components. The challenges are similar to the kinds of questions that the first designers of desktop computing interfaces would have had to tackle. The story behind the story: The interview’s timing, just a couple of weeks before I/O, indicates we should get a pretty substantial update on what has been working on with virtual reality. It may be too soon to see new hardware that’s ready for the masses, but it’s always possible we get a glimpse at a prototype some of the ways that will further push its Cardboard effort. It’s clearly a goal very close to the company’s vision for the future of computing.
