Google and MagicLeap Form XR Partnership Google I/O 2024: The Latest XR Updates from Google According to the computer graphics news website CG Channel, the original version can still be accessed via Steam and the Meta store, but it is no longer receiving updates. It was originally released for the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift.
Google and MagicLeap Form XR Partnership Google I/O 2024: The Latest XR Updates from Google Google Blocks is a 3D modelling platform for virtual reality that does not require expert knowledge to use. It was originally released for the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift. Google AR Glasses: Is This the Return of Google Glass?
billion by 2024. MagicLeap is building a software ecosystem around its product. Oculus, HTC and Playstation are doing it in VR,” said 8th Wall’s Erik Murphy-Chutorian. This includes paid/sponsored AR lenses that let consumers visualize products on “spaces & faces.”. billion this year and $8.02
Then we have a new report from The Verge that says that the upcoming Apple visor is coming with an M2 chip (we knew that); Kuo saying that Apple will release its visor in January 2023 (we knew that); Apple AR glasses (not the headset, but the glasses) have now entered the design development stage and should release in 2024 (again, we knew).
February 2024 is here, and this month marked the end of a long, long wait for Apple’s Vision Pro. The Future of MagicLeap After Ross Rosenberg was appointed MagicLeap’s CEO in October 2023, the company has since focused on its enterprise roadmap for 2024; targeting its XR devices towards enterprise and industrial clients.
2024 may be the start of an XR shift. In its “Residential and Commercial Smart Glass Market Outlook from 2024 to 2034” report , Future Market Insights states that the global residential and commercial smart glass market size will reach $58,248 million in 2024, eventually reaching $187,475 million by 2034.
Waiting until now would mean that next VR game by Valve would come out in 2024–2025… do you really think they don’t want to make the ecosystem to grow now? Valve says that it was waiting to see the reception of Alyx before developing other games. I don’t believe them at all : Alyx required 4 years of development.
As the Meta Quest 3, Apple Vision Pro, HTC VIVE XR Elite, Pico 4 Enterprise, Lenovo VRX, and, most recently, the Varjo XR-4 walk the extended reality (XR) runway, a gradual but measurable uptick in renewed consumer interest in all things immersive builds momentum. 2024: The Year of XR Learning? billion USD uptick.
Beyond these headline-makers, other enterprise vendors such as Lenovo, PICO, and HTC VIVE contribute to developing a healthy market. The Impact of MR Headsets According to a recent report by IDC, global shipments of AR/VR headsets decreased significantly in the first quarter of 2024, 67.4 per cent from 2024 to 2028.
From new features to new customer focuses, this week, like many in 2024, will prove vital in laying down the foundation for XR in the future. It may expand upon this YouTube update during Connect 2024 – the company’s yearly showcase event – with the direct support of 8K hardware streaming.
The firm’s first XR headset is due soon, and with it comes a spatial computing ambition that draws similarities and differences to Lenovo, Microsoft, Meta, HTC VIVE, and other XR headset vendors. Apple is gearing up for the Vision Pro debut.
I mean, it sort of makes more sense to me that, as long as the prices for the headsets are lingering up pretty high — like the Cosmos from HTC, the brand new one, it’ll be an $800 purchase. Dean: And I think more critical are these more foundational companies, like Facebook and Valve and HTC. Dean: Yeah, I think.

Part of all of this is merit of Jeri (Image by HTC). At Tilt Five, we designed a really clever system that only works on tabletop experiences but it has features that are just leaps and bounds above what the big MagicLeap or HoloLens type AR systems are. That’s where I got started with augmented reality.
Its userbase is superior to known PCVR headsets like the HTC Vive Pro and Pro 2 and most probably in the next weeks, it will also surpass the Pico 4. They had some hype a few years ago, also because MagicLeap, in the beginning, hinted at the fact that it would have used them, but then they revealed themselves to be too unpractical for AR.
Our software and hardware engineering and research teams have used a variety of equipment that rides on top of our in-house developed technosports platform , ranging from the HTC Vive Pro and its motion detectors, the (now unfortunately defunct Myo) sensors, the ZED stereo cameras, and Microsoft’s HoloLens.
The product is still being built, and the expected release date is 2024. Google is also hiring high-profile people for it, like Bernard Kress, principal optical architect on Microsoft’s HoloLens team, and Paul Greco, the previous CTO of MagicLeap. HTC discounts its headsets.
The release date should have been early 2024, but it seems that the Korean company has informed its suppliers that this date may have been moved forward of “one to two quarters”. But the bad news is another one: it seems that the release schedule of the Apple Vision “had to be pushed back”, probably into 2026.
According to the rumor, the collaboration should end in 2023, with the first product launched in 2024, a year that is compatible with a consumer-prosumer release of an XR device. MagicLeap rebrands and kills the whale. Apple is entering the XR field, and Facebook is currently dominating the VR market. It is very cool.
Meta plans AR glasses for 2024. According to him, Meta’s master plan is to enter the AR field in 2024 with the glasses codenamed Project Nazare , which will weigh around 100g, be connected to an external computational unit wirelessly, and feature some sensors (like eye-tracking). HTC Vive is going to launch… a box.
