Is Niantic making its own AR smart glasses?

What They Say

Niantic, the firm behind the Pokémon Go phenomenon, and a spin-out from Google in 2010, has launched a new development kit for AR. Although executives of the firm have spoken negatively about the Meta concept of the Metaverse, the Verge thinks it is heading towards something similar with its “lightship augmented reality development kit.”

The blog highlighted the teaser presented by Niantic that was shown in the spring of this year (Commercial AR Headsets to Grow Rapidly per IDC)
