Let’s take a look at some of the top vendors paving the way for construction innovation in the XR world. The company offers access to one of the most affordable and flexible VR headsets on the market in the form of the Oculus Quest, allowing all businesses, large or small to explore virtual reality. MagicLeap.
I thought it would have taken me a lot before I would be able to try the MagicLeap One , but luckily this has not been the case. At a certain point, I asked him: “oh, you said me that you have tried MagicLeap… how is it?” The three component of the MagicLeap One. I was amazed.
Regarding big brands, I expect Apple and Facebook still to wait a bit before releasing something, while MagicLeap will have to make its move to come out from the quicksands. My duck-face while wearing MagicLeap One glasses. The company to keep an eye on is MagicLeap. MagicLeap should be very careful.
This week, we look at the ongoing proliferation of the metaverse as a buzzword and construct for spatial computing’s future. If you really want to understand the putative metaverse, listen to this conversation with Viacom/CBS futurist Ted Schilowitz and MagicLeap founder Rony Abovitz. W elcome back to Spatial Beats.
In the construction industry, professionals can work together on digital twins of schematics, blueprints, and products in a shared VR world. Meta is also the company behind Oculus, one of the more accessible and affordable VR headsets on the market. MagicLeap.
The first interesting forecast is about the number of sold Oculus Quest 2 headsets. and also why the $2+B investment in MagicLeap was not enough to bring it to success. According to Mahaney, the headset has sold around 5–6M units until now, which should grow until 8M before the end of the year. Judge James E. It is overly cool.
MagicLeap Inc. , As stated, they are thinking of taking part in a new financing round of more than $500 million, bringing MagicLeap valuation close to $6 billion. It is attempting to construct a light-field chip using an approach known as silicon photonics. s Oculus Rift. Qualcomm Inc. and Alphabet Inc.’s
Oculus recently showed off a new prototype seen for the first time with eye-tracking. MagicLeap has confirmed eye-tracking on their upcoming development headset. SEE ALSO Abrash Spent Most of His F8 Keynote Convincing the Audience That 'Reality' is Constructed in the Brain.
Aecom, the American multinational engineering firm, is implementing augmented reality into their business with a pilot project using the Hololens in engineering and construction projects in London, Hong Kong, and Denver. Real Work to be Done: Aecom and Hololens Team Up.
Late to the party after Oculus and Microsoft already released prototypical implementations, but finally Valve has implemented OpenXR into its runtime SteamVR. Someone is working on a Linux driver for the Oculus Rift. Indie developer Thaytan is working on a Linux driver for the Oculus Rift. Other relevant news. Funny link.
Like the first HoloLens the device also enables glasses wearers to simply slot the device in front of their spectacles (distinct advantage compared to MagicLeap). HoloLens has already been used in many challenging working environments, from construction sites and operating rooms, to the International Space Station.
Meta is working on an AR headset, which puts them in the same league as Microsoft and MagicLeap. For example, how will a construction worker operate a “smart helmet” while simultaneously using tools or operating heavy machinery? We all want to live our Jedi dreams, but the Oculus Touch controllers are not quite “the Force.”
I have seen the ODG R9, HoloLens and the Meta in controlled demos and so far only the HoloLens comes close to magic. And I mean actual magic – not the VC Kool-Aid-drinking Magic-Leapmagic. Who: Oculus Story Studio (Saschka Unseld, Wesley Allsbrook). Dear Angelica. WHAT ELSE CAN YOU DO: Nothing.
We're going to dig into using MagicLeap and Hololens and mixed reality headsets as a tool for business. And we later did a project called Zombie Guns Raptor with Oculus and Oculus Go, Gear VR. And MagicLeap, of course, did an amazing job of evangelizing mixed reality across the world.

An avatar can pop up, but it’s also communicating technically-complex things, like someone has constructed a car, or a lot of people have constructed a car, and a lot of other people need to produce that car. There’s MagicLeap– Alan: Still a challenge. MagicLeap for sure. Alan: Yeah.

GB: MagicLeap is a big presence in the AR discussion. Outside of the sort of people in this room and in the games press, I don’t think most people know what MagicLeap is. When you talk about investment, certainly MagicLeap has garnered the most, but ODG just closed a big round. VR is inherently isolating.
Oculus Quest is coming out. The Oculus Quest is a great device that is coming — very polished by Oculus, it will be quite cheap, only $400. There is also the Oculus Go, that is already on the market; it’s just a viewer of 360 content. With the Oculus Quest, we’ll see what kind of services they provide.
Alan: One of the startups that we’re helping, they’re looking at taking CAD diagrams, blueprints, and then importing them into the real world so you can stand in a construction site, and see the blueprints overlaid on top in the exact position of where they should be. And I see that right now, Oculus is filling that void.

This could be for something like a MagicLeap or an Oculus or something like that. Austin: Another area where I see a lot of B2B traction is in architecture and construction planning. MagicLeap just raised another $280-million. And when I say this, it’s for headset-based experiences.

Companies like MagicLeap and Hololens, those are great devices where most of the compute is done on the headset… well MagicLeap is actually done on a pack that’s wired in. They’re concerned about the build and construction and function for their family. Alan: Yeah, I think so as well.

At Oculus, they said 10 years. You've seen MagicLeap pivot to enterprises. In some cases, there are companies that have dealt with 3D content like the construction companies. Bharat: So just the technology as a whole is still evolving, as I'm sure multiple guests have said this. It may take years. Bharat: Yes.

He said that Apple is going to “ make VR into something everybody wants before it’s something that everybody can afford ”, like the original Oculus The trademark XROS has been registered by a shell company owned by Apple. MagicLeap has factories in the US and Mexico able to produce AR glasses. That’s so sad.

Hardware, too, has evolved significantly this part year, with the long-awaited launch of MagicLeap and the release of the Oculus Go , which means that it is now possible to have untethered, six degrees of freedom experiences in a headset costing under $200. Will 2019 be the year this VR escapism really starts to take off?
Started covering those areas when they were very tied to games, especially when the original Oculus Rift was launched. 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. Or it’s going to take some more time?

As you know, I do some work with MagicLeap — I don’t speak on their behalf — but they just launched the headsets at several AT&T stores, and one of the demos is an AR…well, no, a spatial computing experience for Game of Thrones. So that was really exciting. You know, Game of Thrones as well.

So you see a lot of it in architecture, engineering, construction. So people who are in factory floors, or people who are meeting assistance for remote collaboration, or the people who are on the grounds physically doing these different actions, whether it’s on a construction site or a factory floor. Alan: Oh, I can’t wait.
Peggy Johnson is the new CEO of MagicLeap. MagicLeap has finally a new CEO: Peggy Johnson. Johnson will have the not easy task of deciding a clear route for MagicLeap, making the company become profitable in the enterprise market after so many failures in the consumer one. News worth a mention.
