A previously unrevealed AR headset has Surfaced on Twitter this morning.
Dubbed Project Ironman, the device is reportedly being developed by Lenovo and Motorola as a flagship device for the Verizon 5G network.
This doesn’t appear to be a totally new collaboration. Lenovo’s product page for the ThinkReality A3 specifically mentions tethering the glasses to the moto G100 to “enable AR solutions” on 5G and WiFi 6 networks.
The headset itself looks like it could be a new member of the ThinkReality line, which it launched in 2019 as a HoloLens competitor. The glasses strongly resemble the current-gen ThinkReality A3, but they’re only part of the Project Ironman story.
The images, shared by Evan Blass, also reveal a unique input device. It features a trackpad and what looks like an integrated battery and it hangs around the wearers neck:
Assuming Project Ironman is being pitched for use in factories or other industrial settings, that’s a logical decision. Sure, it might look a little awkward, but a pointing device in the middle of the wearer’s chest at least keeps their hands and arms out of harm’s way when moving a pointer and clicking on things.
The neckpiece — which Blass says was Motorola’s contribution to Project Ironman — sends power and data to the headset via a cable. Its bright red color makes it fairly clear indication that Lenovo was involved in its design.
It’s difficult to say given the scant information available right now, but there may be more going on in the neckpiece. Given that Project Ironman is rumored to be destined for Verizon’s 5G network, it may be hiding what amounts to a screenless g100 inside.
That would allow for standalone use instead of making wearers run a USB Type-C cable to a phone.
As for a potential price tag for Project Ironman, all we have to go by right now are the prices of the ThinkReality A3 and the g100. The A3 sells for $1499.99 and the g100 is currently going for $449.
That could put it in the $2000 to $2500 price range, which is well below the Hololens 2’s starting price of $3499.

Dealmaster includes several deals from Cyber Monday that are still going.

Black Friday and Cyber Monday are behind us, but if you didn't get everything you want, today's Dealmaster roundup still has a number of the better deals from those events.
Our top 4K streaming stick, Google's Chromecast with Google TV, is 20 percent off, for instance, while close competitors in Amazon's Fire TV Stick 4K Max and Roku Streaming Stick 4K are still at their Cyber Monday prices of $35 and $30, respectively.
A couple of our top picks among wireless noise-canceling headphones remain discounted as well. Sony's WH-1000XM4 is our favorite over-ear pair for most people and is still roughly $70 off its typical street price, while Jabra's Elite 75t is a well-rounded set of true wireless earphones that are currently down to $80, which is only $3 higher than the best price we've tracked.

Chrome OS 96 boosts Chromebook cameras’ capabilities.
(credit: Valentina Palladino)
Chromebook cameras just learned some new tricks, as Google started pushing out Chrome OS 96 on Tuesday. As detailed by a Google blog post, the update brings the ability to use your camera to scan images and convert them into PDFs or JPEGs.
If your Chromebook has a webcam and front-facing camera, as the HP Chromebook x2 does, you can use the feature with both cameras. Chrome OS Software Director Alexander Kuscher explained how: "Open the Camera app and select 'Scan' mode. When you hold out the document you want to scan in front of the camera, the edges will be automatically detected."
You can share the resulting file through the standard mediums, like email. You can also distribute the scanned document to other Chromebooks and Android devices via Nearby Share. Similar to Apple AirDrop, Nearby Share lets you quickly send data through Bluetooth, WebRTC, or peer-to-peer Wi-Fi. Google first brought Nearby Share to Chromebooks this June.

A fully operational Starship solves many of SpaceX’s problems.

Last Friday, as most Americans slept off their tryptophan hangovers, headed to the mall for Black Friday shopping, or tried in vain to avoid political discussions with visiting family members, SpaceX founder Elon Musk was instead at work. Not finding things to his liking, Musk dashed off an email to the company's employees. A full copy of the email, obtained by Ars, appears at the end of this story.
Musk told his employees that SpaceX faces a "Raptor production crisis," which means the company is having difficulty producing enough of the high-tech rocket engines to support plans to test the Starship and Super Heavy vehicles in 2022.
"I was going to take this weekend off, as my first weekend off in a long time, but instead I will be on the Raptor line all night and through the weekend," Musk wrote. "Unless you have critical family matters or cannot physically return to Hawthorne, we need all hands on deck to recover from what is, quite frankly, a disaster."

In news I was not expecting to write anytime soon, Barnes & Noble has a new eReader.

In news I was not expecting to write anytime soon, Barnes & Noble has a new eReader.
The new NOOK GlowLight 4 features a 6 inch E Ink display with 300 pixels per inch, a front-lit display with adjustable color temperature, physical page turn buttons and a touchscreen display, plus a USB-C charger. It’s now available for $150 in stores and from the B&N website.
That makes the new model $30 more than the previous-gen NOOK GlowLight 3, but version 4 has a few key upgrades including:
Unfortunately the wireless capabilities are still capped at 802.11b/g/n and the battery life seems to have taken a step back: Barnes & Noble is promising up to a month of reading time on a charge which sounds pretty good until you notice that the NOOK GlowLight 3 was supposed to get up to 50 days of battery life.
I guess something had to give when the company reduced the physical dimensions of its flagship eReader.
If you’re wondering how the new NOOK GlowLight 4 stacks up against the competition, it has a smaller screen than Amazon’s 6.8 inch Kindle Paperwhite, and it lacks the water resistance that Amazon’s eReader has.
But the NOOK GlowLight 4 is competitively priced. Amazon’s latest Kindle Paperwhite starts at $140 for a model with 8GB of storage and ads on the lock screen. Removing the ads raises the price by $20. And if you want 32GB of storage you’ll need to pay at least $190 for a Kindle Paperwhite Signature Edition.
In a press release, B&N refers to the GlowLight 4 as the second NOOK released this year, but the other model was actually just a Lenovo tablet with the NOOK software pre-installed.
The last actually new eReader the company released was the 2019 NOOK GlowLight Plus, which sells for $200 and features a 7.8 inch display, IPx7 water resistance, and… just 8GB of storage, a micro USB charger, and 802.11b/g/n WiFi.

Another day, another small form-factor desktop computer from MINISFORUM. But this time it’s the company’s first model with a 35-watt Intel Tiger Lake-H processor.
The MINISFORUM TH50 is a compact computer with an Intel Core i5-11320H processor. The TH50 is available for pre-order for $529 and up, and should begin shipping to customers by the end of February, 2021.
MINISFORUM is offering three configurations:
Each model has Intel’s Core i5-11320H processor, which is a 35-watt, quad-core processor with support for Turbo Boost speeds up to 4.5 GHz and Intel Iris Xe integrated graphics featuring a 1.35 GHz GPU and 80 execution units.
The computer’s other features include:
There are also two USB-C ports, at least one of which is a thunderbolt 4 port (the other appears to be a 19V power input, although it’s unclear at this point where it can also be used for data).
The TH50 is just the latest in a seemingly never-ending stream of a compact computers from MINISFORUM. In the past month or so, the company has also unveiled an upcoming model with an AMD Ryzen 5000 processor and discrete graphics and a low-power model with an Intel Celeron N5095 Jasper Lake processor.
The new TH50 most closely resembles the MINISFORUM TL50 that launched earlier this year, but the updated model has a higher-performance processor.
