Unlike existing AR headsets such as the MagicLeap 2 or Microsoft HoloLens, the Spectacles feature a discrete, light-weight design more akin to glasses than a headset. Previous creators used the technology to anchor their AR creations to famous structures like the Gateway of India and the Great Sphinx of Giza in Egypt.
Didn’t work (Image by Microsoft). Google can count on the acquisition of North, the experience he has matured by producing Google Glass and investing in MagicLeap, and the fact that it owns the most-used mobile operating system. MagicLeap will meet its fate. Duck Face, MagicLeap One, and me.
India and U.S.-based The collaboration platform is device agnostic (so you could use a Microsoft Hololens while communicating with someone wearing an Oculus Rift), and the B2B company is focusing on the training and education space. The covert product still has not been publicly shown, and the well-funded MagicLeap ($1.3B
In this context, the IoE Research Center for Virtual Reality and Haptics at IIT Madras has released a groundbreaking whitepaper on AR/VR/MR and eXtended Reality (XR) in India. Guiding efforts and investments into these technologies becomes imperative to ensure India's significant presence in this space.
After having a quiet first half of 2023 in terms of XR, Microsoft is starting to grow its emerging immersive technology promise by combining its upcoming MR services alongside the firm’s genAI investments to innovate workplace communications. MagicLeap hopes to drive the scalability and flexibility of MRTK3.
The report notes that the forecasted uptick hinges on various market leaders, including Google, Sony, Apple, Samsung Electronics, Microsoft, HTC, Oculus, MagicLeap, Blippar, and Upskill. The development of XR for enterprises and consumers is notably rising in the US and EU.
This has 3 main components to it, dictated by hardware: Wait, how is this different from things like Microsoft’s Hololens? Devices such as the MagicLeap and the Hololens rely on Waveguide optics. Whilst they attempt to solve for India, things are moving fast back in Silicon Valley. What about Apple Glass?
With what’s going on from Project Tango and Microsoft, there are definitely big players in this space. Question: From a prioritization standpoint as far as investments, are you looking for the next MagicLeap, or are you looking at content platforms, content creation, codecs? We’re paying close attention to this in startups.
Anne-Marie: MagicLeap’s doing a workshop. There’s Telus, Facebook, Siemens, Raytheon, Viacom, Microsoft, Lenovo, Niantic, Canadian Tire. A lot of local companies, a lot of really interesting startups. And then we’ve got workshops too. Alan: Oh, tell me about the workshop! That’s important.

I'm a Microsoft master trainer, so I do a lot of work with Microsoft technology. 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. I mean, I was a distinguished educator.

Over the years i have seen a few lists of Top 50 XR Influencers, but the curators of those list always overlooked China/India/Asia's XR Industry. Just for Context the worlds current population is 7 Billion, India & China's Collective population is 2.7 More Power, Success & Funding Support to the Asian XR Ecosystem.
