Vive Pro date and price, MagicLeap announcements, Nvidia’s real-time ray-tracing, and Budget Cuts resurfaces. The company is still heavily involved with VR development however, and are expected to present some new technology with Google at Display Week 2018 in May. MagicLeap announcements.
Visually immersive and contextually-aware AR glasses like MagicLeap One and Hololens 2 require optics whose power consumption and heat dissipation necessitate bulky headgear, rather than anything you’d consider “eyewear.”. This comes down to a classic design tradeoff. The Next Mobility. ” Historical parallels.
Image by MagicLeap). MagicLeap may be in trouble, but its CEO remains confident. Some weeks ago, I’ve reported of rumors about MagicLeap being in big trouble and having assigned all its patents as collateral to bank JP Morgan, probably because it is looking for a loan or to raise a round E.
Their first MR project used Google Tango and the Microsoft HoloLens to bring a rare digital tank from their game to a real-life exhibit at the Tank Museum at Bovington , UK.

It’s been called the AR Cloud by many, the Magicverse by MagicLeap, the Mirrorworld by Wired, the Cyberverse by Huawei, Planet-scale AR by Niantic and Spatial Computing by academics. Both Azure Spatial Anchors and Google Cloud Anchors are leveraging existing strengths in mapping towards the AR Cloud. Who Will Own the Metaverse?
He continued, explaining that doctors had also tapped AR technologies to perform surgeries with new technologies and devices such as MagicLeap’s headsets, leading to “a whole new world of possibilities we’re not even aware of yet.” ” The ‘New World’ of Immersive Reality.
Then why MagicLeap hasn’t delivered a solid product with 2B?) AMD today introduced the Radeon RX 6800, 6800 XT, and 6900 XT graphics cards based on its latest RDNA 2 architecture. These new graphics cards are a good evolution of the previous models and are based on the new RDNA 2 architecture that brings with it many benefits.
It is one of those places where people look for 3D models , alongside other marketplaces like the Unity Asset Store, Google Poly or Turbosquid. Not to mention how 3D technologies are being adopted and developed by major companies like Google, Facebook, Amazon, and Apple. This is also true for architectural visualizations.
Dynamic generative applications The lightbulb in my brain powered on by reminding my interview with the amazing John Gaeta (when he still was at MagicLeap). Doing a Google search, I found out that since Microsoft opensourced the C# compiler (called Roslyn) , many things have been made with it. And then I had an idea.
The event sees leading XR firms such as Meta, Google, and MagicLeap actively participating in many of the event’s esteemed keynotes and exhibition spaces. Yesterday, Google and Mojo Vision representatives introduced the event, kicking off the monumental event with an opening keynote.
InsiteVR’s latest solution, called Resolve, lets AEC (architecture, engineering, construction) professionals explore 3D models of environments with other people on the Oculus Quest. If you want to help them, there is a dedicated Google Form where you can apply. Resolve lets you explore huge 3D models from your Quest. Well, maybe.
Both companies and Microsoft, Google, Snap, Amazon, and many other US tech firms launched a massive wave of workforce layoffs in recent months to streamline operations. Additionally, other business-focused offerings from Vuxiz, RealWear, DigiLens, MagicLeap, Epson and many other competitors remain more established across the sector.
“That’s the exact class of product we need to be looking at when we talk about what the architecture might look like.” “But the StarBoard stuff presents exactly that: a Google Cardboard sort of functionality for iPhones. . “I’ve always been skeptical of 2020,” he says.
Austin McCasland is a UX prototyper working with Google, and he and Alan chat about the finer points of UX design for AR. He's designed and developed Paint Space AR, named by Apple as one of the best apps of 2017 and currently works full time at Google as an AR Interaction designer. Austin: Thank you for having me, excited to be here.
There’s a whole range of services, and GPS is getting better now that it’s being married to computer vision, so you can get highly-localized Google directions – really accurate, down to a couple of feet. Is this a job for Google Glass? Charlie: Yeah it’s Google Glass. So convergence is beginning, right?

The release of MagicLeap One was supposed to be the “magic moment” for consumer AR, the development that finally got consumers excited about augmented reality glasses. I can see MagicLeap finding a niche in B2C use cases, which would increase consumer exposure to wearable AR beyond in-store retail apps and social media.

Meta and Google announce layoffs. This week we had the announcement of both Meta and Google laying off people. News worth a mention.
We did a project just using Google's hand tracking library. What that means that from a software architecture standpoint and a hardware standpoint, we try to make our software as optimized as possible for their reference designs. Alan: With Facebook now working on AR, and you've got MagicLeap, and Microsoft's Hololens.

MagicLeap releases its SDK.
architecture, which we call the spatial web. So specifically, as it relates to augmented and virtual reality content; today, there is no ability for you to send me an augmented reality object — let’s say an architectural diagram. Then with Google Maps, it gives us a better option, where we can see the path.

Bob: Well, actually, what was interesting for me being at Laval is, I put on a — for the first time — a VR architecture event… actually, over a year ago, now; this was January 2018. But it was hard for me to get a feel for where architecture uptake was, from a VR perspective, in the US. We had good participation.

But one of the things that they were really passionate about was controlling heads-up displays like Google Glass, which had just come out at the time. We've got a MagicLeap, a Hololens, we have all the tech. So we managed to have an entirely new architecture. Alan: Oh, my God. Stefan: Yeah! I get new technology.

I feel like some products, such as Google Cardboard, and some of the lower-end pieces of hardware, have actually done more harm than good to the reputation of virtual reality. People get in it, and they see, "this as a medium-to-low-quality image or video that I'm sitting in," and there's not much interaction if it's a Google Cardboard.

I know there’s architectural models, for example. How are architects or architectural real estate, how are they using this? Alban: So, architecture is actually not one of our biggest markets. Alan: But I mean, if you think about it, from an architectural standpoint, you guys have a pro version of the software, right?
