    I think he means repairs like washing machines, cars etc. It’s all very well looking up videos or pics of how to repair stuff, but often the video isn’t clear or fine quality enough

    An overlaid graphic on whatever you were repairing would be fucking amazing for some of the stuff I do

      it would, but it’s not clear how the same companies that make bad manuals now will make good AR overlays in the future

      yeah, tell me again how you’re going to be fucking around the inside of a washing machine with a goddamn apple vision pro strapped to your face

      but often the video isn’t clear or fine quality enough

      Wouldn’t it be great if 100x the effort that didn’t go into making the video clear or fine quality enough, instead didn’t go into making relevant flying, see-through overlay decals?

      Ultimately the reason it looks cool is that you’re comparing a situation of little effort being put into repair related documentation, to some movie scenario where 20 person-hours were spent making a 20-second repair fragment whereby 1 step of a repair is done.
