But for real-time spatial computing technologies — like XR, for example — that just won’t cut it, especially when it could mean life or death. But let’s dig into what an actual example, of why you would need to map out the world in real-time like that. Terry: Yeah. GPS is supposed to be accurate to roughly 4.9
