In my opinion, Magic Leap 2 is a superior device to HoloLens 2 (see my hands-on here ), so I think that with these prices, it can have good success in the enterprise market, starting to gain shares with regard to Microsoft. Probably the communication machine of the company is not as strong as before, so the old message still hangs around.

Eye Tracking Apart from sessions a few years ago using the HTC Vive Pro Eye and Microsoft Hololens, I didn’t have any experience with eye tracking. The core machine-learning algorithms interpret the camera feed to generate a real-time stream of data points such as pupil size, gaze vector, and eye openness.

People still having a WMR device have delayed this update as much as they could, but now that Microsoft is forcing it is much harder to avoid it.

Rather than making humans redundant, professionals are learning to use it to supercharge their work, automating mundane everyday tasks to carry out their jobs more quickly and efficiently. Understanding this means learning its limits and recognizing the situations where human skills, knowledge, judgment, and creativity are still vital.
