Couldn't have had a better time doing a "paint 'n sip" with @ESPNImages team today to spread some hospital "heART" board cheer to hospitals & provide encouragement to health care workers. Thanks @ESPNCitizenship for the great COVID friendly volunteer activity! pic.twitter.com/PXqaFmFoue

Quotable
“I’m personally very excited about the wearable space. I think that has a lot of opportunity with not necessarily XR, but augmented reality. And we’re already testing and trialing industrial use cases, believe it or not, in our cell sites to help technicians commission equipment using the traditional hardhat with an AR-capable visor. So early days, but if we can do that in our little space of industry, imagine how many opportunities exist across broader industries, be that oil and gas or medial professionals.”
