Despite securing $280 million from Japan’s largest telecom earlier this summer, we’ve heard surprisingly little from the multi-billion dollar AR startup of late regarding its flagship headset, MagicLeap One. Image courtesy MagicLeap, Weta Workshop. Multiplayer Improvements.

Despite the relatively small size of MagicLeap's first annual L.E.A.P. Apparently missed by many was one of the best experiences I had at the event: Wingnut AR's unreleased Pest Control game. Don't Miss: Hands-On with MagicLeap & Weta Workshop's Dr. Grordbort's Invaders When I was brought into the unassuming room set.
MagicLeap One Creator Edition is now available starting at $2,295 USD. Inside the box you’ll find the Lightwear headset, Lightpack computing pack, Control handheld input device, a Fit Kit to ensure a perfectly calibrated fit, chargers, and a handy Quick Start Guide to get you up and running.

I’d say the biggest chance is having the positional hand controllers , which helps with design of interfaces immensely. Robo Recall remains in my opinion one of the best VR games because it has been designed from the ground up for VR and for Oculus Touch controllers (Image by Oculus). But in software this is not guaranteed.
We also have an older build for MagicLeap, but currently there are technical limitations preventing third party browsers on that platform. And we’ve focused our early adoption in scenarios that are not just passive consumption of content coming from a big stage: more on conferences, workshops, discord community events, etc.
We can speculate that this will be an enterprise headset costing at least $600, evolving the Reverb fixing the problem with controllers and improving the audio. Valve could provide some audio-visual improvements, while Microsoft its WMR platform, with inside-out tracking of controllers. News worth a mention. Very handy.

World augmentation would augment and reflect images and data via overlays on the real world.
MagicLeap Studios). Available now via MagicLeap World , the 1.1 update to MagicLeap’s existing Project Create brings a variety of additional content to the world-building application. MagicLeap continues its love of space-themed objects with the brand new Astronaut character.
Today at MagicLeap’s first creator conference the company has revealed a bevy of AR content built on the headset—some experimental, and some actually launching on the headset soon (or today)—but all up and running on real hardware. At Leap Con today I got treated to a bevy of new MagicLeap content.
Some of its features are: 2,160 × 2,160 resolution per eye 90Hz framerate 4-cameras inside-out tracking (like the Quest) Touch-like controllers with Knuckles-like finger-sensing Face tracking Hips tracking (for better orientation in games) Integration with SteamVR games Wireless add-on. So this is a market we should all keep an eye on.
We did a lot to Tilt Brush demos and hands-on workshops and stuff. Alan: To be honest, my kids have unlimited access to VR and they -- I mean, we've got a quest, we've got Vives, we've got Hololens, MagicLeap, we have all the toys -- and they don't want to go in it. Alan: Cool! Alan: It's interesting.
