The CEO said they have but one competitor, Apple, which hasn’t yet announced any XR, AR or VR, products.

Tilt Brush becomes open source.

There is no official confirmation on this, and I hope to be wrong because having to use earphones would be a big hit to its comfort Release date and price : of course the release date (will it come before or after an Apple headset?) MagicLeap 2 has inside-out tracked controllers. and price (will it be affordable for PS5 users?)
Mixed Reality content My most successful mixed reality demo is about seeing virtualenvironment outside your home Mixed Reality is the word of the moment and Meta wants to show that it is strong at it. Games are a type of content where Meta is very strong while Apple has a lacking ecosystem.
AR Apps to Increasingly Leverage AI Tech To create more immersive virtualenvironments, AR applications must be able to collect a wealth of information about the user’s surroundings.

The platform, which won last year’s Auggie Award for Best Enterprise Solution, is compatible with MR headsets like HoloLens and MagicLeap.

February 2024 is here, and this month marked the end of a long, long wait for Apple’s Vision Pro. Apple has already sold 200,000 devices in the first week, which is impressive. This funding will support MagicLeap’s “Chapter 3” roadmap of delivering enterprise-grade XR solutions.
MagicLeap. Focused primarily on the business world and corporate uses for Extended Reality, MagicLeap produces a range of powerful headsets with built-in speakers, sensors, and spatial audio. At this time, Apple is still working on its own AR glasses and advanced XR headsets.
The platform is built to work with Android devices and integrates directly with Google Play Services to provide a consistent framework for developers, similar to how Apples Vision Pro headset can lean on Apples App Store. And, we are continuing to collaborate with MagicLeap on XR technology and future products with AR and AI.
At the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, David Em made strides in the creation of explorable virtual landscapes, while the Ames Research Center iterated on VIEW (Virtual Interactive Environment Workstation). MagicLeap officially announced its One headset after years of speculation and rumors.
Already, the company is partnering not just with Samsung and Qualcomm but with countless heavyweights like Sony, MagicLeap, and Unity. According to early testers, however, the headset feels and looks like a Meta Quest Pro, with the visual quality of the Apple Vision Pro.
” After he gave his TED Talk on it, there’s interest from Apple, and Google ended up buying his company. And so we have our MagicLeap build coming out very soon. And obviously the MagicLeap 1 is a tremendous device and we’re excited about MagicLeap as they continue to push the space.

This was the best feature for me: it was really like all of us were in this virtualenvironment, all together. 3D objects had washed out colors , a bit like when you see AR objects through HoloLens 1 and MagicLeap One … they appeared a bit semi-transparent. I moved my hand towards the bottle and I grabbed it.
I’d say that through at least 2022, the enterprise will account for the majority of augmented and mixed reality headsets like Hololens and MagicLeap. If you look at someone like Apple, they aren’t about to put their logo on something like the current developer-focused headsets out there.
