Nerd alert: Host PJ Jacobowitz gets the background on the tech and terms behind augmented reality, virtual reality, and extended reality from guests Hiren Bhinde and Thao Le, from the XR product management and marketing teams at Qualcomm Technologies.

They cover 3DOF, 6DOF, sensors, gyroscopes, room scale, and computer vision — and PJ reveals an obsession with depth sensing.
