Recent technological advancements have pushed the envelope of what modern technologies are capable of. Furthermore, these innovations have greatly changed the way users interact with such technologies. Unfortunately, such beliefs stem from a misunderstanding of the technology and how it works.
We are now at the level that we are super happy with the latency and deployments.”. For example, MagicLeap has had a partnership with Google Cloud for the past year now. In a recent funding announcement , Varjo announced the most recent development in their cloud services. Parents and Partners.
Play for Dream teased its headset's low latency passthrough by having a racing driver weave between cones while wearing it. One of the concerns about passthrough is latency. With see-through AR you get zero latency view of the real world, whereas in passthrough systems it takes time to process the camera frames.
Last Monday, I walked three blocks uphill on Mason St in San Francisco to the Fairmont Hotel to demo a stealth product that had been touted to me as one of the biggest advancements in XR tech this side of MagicLeap. What’s it like to see in 20/20 in VR? It’s pretty astounding. The rug looks fluffy and inviting.

XR can actually facilitate enterprise compliance, and many companies are already investing in the technology for critical employee training to do so. Changing the Way Companies Train Staff.
The idea of Leap Motion is going against the current trend of augmented reality glasses, that is mostly based on expensive devices that have closed ecosystems (e.g. HoloLens or MagicLeap One ), but to create a headset that is: Affordable; Completely open, both from a software and hardware standpoint.
But these 8 years in VR taught me that the technology evolves more slowly than we would like to , so this would be a reasonable evolution for the Quest. One of the samples is a giraffe in the hands, which clearly recalls the elephant in the hands of MagicLeap. For sure, if this was the Quest 3, it would be a bit disappointing.
When I have been able to talk with him, I also loved his passion for immersive technologies. He has worked in the past with big companies like AOL and Disney and has lived in first person a lot of technological revolutions like the advent of personal PCs, mainstream internet and smartphones. This is a historic moment.
This only happened twice during my demo, but it was enough to leave me with the impression that it was somewhere around PSVR’s Move in tracking accuracy and latency, but below all other major PC VR motion controllers out now. Image courtesy NDI.
Already the industry is seeing evolution, major technology roadblocks, and critical innovations. Intel is leveraging a Double Connect Technology (DCT) system, which allows Quest 2 and Pro devices to connect directly with a PC to stream immersive content. MagicLeap 2 Gains Medical Certification. The Meta Quest 3 in 2023?

Regarding AR, Mark says that he believes that it is the next technological platform and that before 2030, it will be more important than smartphones. Apple signs a deal with Imagination Technologies.
MagicLeap has integrated its second-generation device, the MagicLeap 2, into the futuristic Mercedes-Benz Vision One-Eleven Concept Car (C111). As reported in recent months, the new electric vehicle (EV) combines augmented reality (AR) digital overlays from the MagicLeap 2 for an unrivalled driving experience.
Like every year, during this event we have seen some important AR news, but not that many, since the event was more focused on mobile phones than immersive technologies. HTC answered saying that it was just a showcase to show the potentialities of the technology and not a solution ready to be shipped.
On the client side, the system will become compatible with iOS devices, and a MagicLeap client has also been developed. On the technological side, it seems all is set to start using cloud rendering, but the big problem of the latency from the nearest server remains; VRSS (Variable Rate SuperSampling) v2 has been announced.
We also have an older build for MagicLeap, but currently there are technical limitations preventing third party browsers on that platform. Why do you believe so much in immersive technologies? How do you think 5G can really change the future of immersive technologies in the short and mid-term? Mozilla Hubs.
Eye-tracking has been talked about with regards to VR as a distant technology for many years, but developments from companies across the industry have shown promising progress in precision, latency, robustness, and cost. MagicLeap has confirmed eye-tracking on their upcoming development headset.
