Fascinating nugget in this piece that a top engineer formerly leading Facebook's AR/VR software efforts, @marklucovsky, said he decided to leave the company after the whistleblower revelations. He's now at Google.https://t.co/WSPK4ZLnkM

This appears to be Meta shooting down the Information’s report from earlier https://t.co/0DX41yJ1tl https://t.co/HrzucDDhXL

— Steve Kovach (@stevekovach) January 5, 2022

Story in The Information cites two sources and says Meta will continue modifying an open-source version of Android as its main VR software. Says 300 people have been working on the operating system project.

This appears to be a story about an internal resource allocation shift to focus on VROS (Android-based OS) rather than XROS (ground-up OS), not a major shift in $FB's metaverse strategy or plans: https://t.co/9g4NuRWZtJ

Meta suspended or at least slowed down their “XROS” plans for now due to Mark Lucovsky leaving (who went to Google to develop an AR OS)

Lucovsky left after Facebooks harmful businesses practices were exposed and when they pushed hard on the Metaversehttps://t.co/nbqIA1x2I9

Meta社がXROSの開発中止したってやつ、
ハードウエアとやり取りするカーネルレベルから新しいOSを独自のマイクロカーネル設計で開発しようとしてたけど諦めて、
既存のLinuxカーネルやAndroidの系譜を継ぐものとして開発していく方針になったってことぽいなhttps://t.co/t5mF7Wbh5B

すぐにMETAから、メタバースを諦めているわけじゃないと、さすが一流のPRチームがいるだけありますね。https://t.co/Zhu0gOz1wQ

OculusはAndroidベースで、マイクロカーネルで自分たちのOSを作ると言われてた。300人、数年かけて作ってたものを辞められるのもトップ企業ならではかもね。

Meta（Facebook）がAR/VRのOS開発するプロジェクト「XROS」を止めたらしい。

元々OSをゼロから開発しようとしていたMetaは300人チームを結成していたが、これからはAndroidのオープンソース版を活用するとのこと。https://t.co/n0s5UxSTCz
