Cadence at MWC: Does This Headset Make Me Look Silly?-March 14, 2017 |
Cadence has attended MWC ever since it acquired Tensilica, and they attended for years before that. Tensilica DSPs are used in many areas within mobile for audio processing, video processing, high-performance modems, embedded neural networks and more.
Microsoft Hololens
The most dramatic silly looking thing to put on your head is the Microsoft Hololens. This actually only looks silly to people watching you, since when you are wearing it, the experience is completely immersive. One game I played starts by having you look around the room so that the game can work out where the walls are, because robotic scorpions are going to appear on the walls and you have to shoot them before they shoot fireballs at you (and if they do, you can duck out of the way). If you want to access menus, you just look at the menu item and tap your finger on it as if you were clicking a mouse. Of course, this looks especially silly to anyone watching you.
