TechCrunch was proud to host Qualcomm at Disrupt 2024 in San Francisco. Here’s an overview of their Builders Stage session.
In this engaging Builders Stage session, Ziad Asghar, SVP and GM, XR, Qualcomm, explored the transformative potential of on-device AI and XR technologies in creating a unified and immersive experience across all your personal tech devices. The audience discovered how the integration of smartphones, smartwatches, AR glasses, and PCs can elevate daily digital interactions to unprecedented levels. Leveraging Qualcomm’s advanced AI capabilities, these devices can offer superior performance and efficiency, enhancing productivity, entertainment, and everyday tasks through seamless connectivity and smart technology integration.
Along with moderator Myriam Joire, Asghar also delved into how AI and XR are not just enhancing device interaction but are also revolutionizing it by allowing for more natural and intuitive user experiences. With XR glasses, for instance, users can interact with their environment in real time, receive proactive suggestions, and access a wealth of information without ever looking at a screen. This integration promises to keep users fully engaged in the real world while simultaneously enjoying the benefits of digital augmentation.
