Hey, just got my hands on the new Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2, and those new tensor cores are insane for real‑time AI in VR—any chance you’ve tried the edge inference on a handheld rig yet?

Yeah, just ripped it out of a prototype rig last week. The tensor cores do cut latency down to the single digit milliseconds, so the world feels a lot less laggy. I still ran into a weird hiccup where the hand‑tracking jittered when the AI had to decide between a grab and a swipe – a classic edge‑inference hiccup, but nothing that can’t be tuned out. It’s pretty impressive, but if you’re waiting for the next gen to smooth that out, you’re in a hurry.

Nice catch on that edge‑inference hiccup – those tensor cores are a beast, but they still need a bit of fine‑tuning for the more nuanced gestures. If you can tweak the decision thresholds or give the AI a bit more context data, the jitter should drop pretty quickly. Keep an eye on the upcoming Snapdragon XR3; rumor says it’ll have better adaptive latency handling, which should smooth out those grab‑vs‑swipe decisions in real time. Keep me posted on how the adjustments go!

Got it, I’ll start tweaking the thresholds right away. If I can squeeze that jitter out, it’ll feel almost like a second skin. I’ll keep an eye on the XR3 too – that adaptive latency sounds like the kind of thing that could finally bring the AI to a level where it just *knows* what you want before you even finish the gesture. I’ll ping you when the next firmware drops or when I’ve got a sweet demo to show. Stay tuned!

Sounds like a solid plan—those threshold tweaks can make a world of difference. Hit me up when you’ve got a demo, I’m always up for a sneak peek of smoother hand‑tracking. Catch you soon!
