According to CTOnews.com on February 13, some people call this field "mixed reality" and others say "extended reality", while Mark Zuckerberg tried to name it "meta-universe".

But whatever this area is, Google has been working hard to develop projects in this field, even though it is difficult to achieve this dream in the eyes of its own AR / VR. Coupled with the fact that Oculus Quest and Microsoft Hololense have robbed Google of their jobs, the company should not consider layoffs and restructuring in this environment in order to pursue new goals.

According to a source at 9to5Google, Google's AR division will now be divided into two teams: platform and Ecology, led by Hiroshi Lockheimer and led by Rick Osterloh.

According to Tu Yuan Pexels, Ostro was responsible for the development and success of consumer hardware under the brands of Pixel and Nest. In addition, the team seems to be working with some people poached from North on an AR glasses project. Unfortunately, CTOnews.com doesn't know how the project has improved compared to Google's Glass a decade ago, and hopes to see an official announcement later.

Considering that Google recently reached a cooperation agreement with Samsung to expand the reality of Android, we think it makes sense for the company to split off a team responsible for the platform and ecology. Google is likely to distribute its extended reality operating system to manufacturers for use on televisions, mobile phones, Chromebook and smartwatches.

In fact, Google vice president Clay Barwal, who has announced his departure, has previously led and overseen a number of projects in the field at Google Labs, including the moon landing incubator Area 120 and the business-centric augmented reality videoconferencing solution Project Starline. The outgoing executive will work with Bret Taylor, former co-chief executive of Salesforce and former chief technology officer of Meta, to set up an artificial intelligence start-up. At the same time, the rest of Area 120 has been reoriented towards the use of artificial intelligence applications.
