Brendan Iribe Quotes

Future is mobile computing - smartphones and tablets are just elements of it. The industry is on the verge of a whole new paradigm.

The world got enamored with smartphones and tablets, but what's interesting is those devices don't do everything that needs to be done. Three-D printing, virtual-reality computing, robotics are all controlled by PCs.

If we want to help Google become something meaningfully different in the future, then that's more likely to happen if we focus on the physical world instead.

Obviously, virtual reality is where I've placed my bet about the future and where the excitement is going. At this point, I could say it's almost a lock. It's going to be magical - it is magical - and great things are coming from that. Along the way, I was focused on the first-person shooters. I said we should go do something on mobile.

I'm generally pretty excited about new gadgets, new tech, A.I., stuff like that.

I worked on heads-up displays, virtual-reality technology, and holographic displays - all sorts of really cool technology.

We believe the future of computing should be natural.

I had a great time creating the future on 'Minority Report,' and it's a future that is coming true faster than any of us thought it would.

The truth of Moore's law has made remarkable things possible. On the software side, I think natural user interfaces in all their forms are equally significant.

The pace of digital innovation is astonishing. It's impossible to imagine life without the web, smartphones, social networks. And yet the consumer products and everyday objects all around us are still essentially dumb.

The Explorer edition of Glass wasn't for everyone, but the Explorer program pushed us to find a wide range of near-term applications and uses for something like Glass.

Computing is evolving beyond phones, and people are using it in context across many scenarios, be it in their television, be it in their car, be it something they wear on their wrist or even something much more immersive.

The future lies in designing and selling computers that people don't realize are computers at all.

What I didn't foresee in 2005 was the rise of the post-PC, which are all these tablets now. These are the things that actually will probably be the end of the consoles.

It used to be that we imagined that our mobile phones would be for us to talk to each other. Now, our mobile phones are there to talk to us.

With the headset and motion tracker and all kinds of different future tracking technologies that we are R&Ding, there is just a huge amount of intelligence that has to be created. So we are looking at hiring some of the brightest minds out there to tackle some of those challenges and deliver the very best experience possible for the consumer.

Augmented reality will take some time to get right, but I do think that it's profound.

I believe that augmented reality will be the biggest technological revolution that happens in our lifetimes.

As I look forward in things like the Internet of Things, I am sure we will talk about video. There is a lot of disruption going on and a lot of new products being brought to market, products like Go90.

We live in a time of astounding technological advancements. There are deep-sea drones and live-streaming virtual reality.

Who knows what form storytelling will take in the future?

Augmented reality will drive all things like chat, social networking, photos, videos, organizing data, modeling, painting, motion capture, and visual programming. Every form of computing will be combined together and unified in a single platform.

What I envisioned back in the 1970s was this thing you would wear as 'glass' over your right eye, and you could see the world though that glass. The glass then reconfigures the things you see.

I think Google is a great company, and they're doing really cool things. But they're not doing things that are going to put us, I think, into the next generation of technology.

Nanotechnology has been moving a little faster than I expected, virtual reality a little slower.
