3D objects had washed out colors , a bit like when you see AR objects through HoloLens 1 and Magic Leap One … they appeared a bit semi-transparent. Even worse, it wasn’t able to track my finger movements well (it was worse than Leap Motion … and Leap Motion doesn’t have worn sensors!). It was just WONDERFUL.

Matsuda himself subsequently began working in AR following the film's release, leading design teams at both Leap Motion (now Ultraleap) and Microsoft.

Acer, NVIDIA, Valve, Ubisoft, Leap Motion and many others joined the ecosystem. Augmented reality tools detect objects in video feeds. For example, DAQRI integrated a plugin that detects objects in a video stream. Magic Leap is not commercial yet. It turns out that others share this vision.

Another big kudos comes from the fact that Snap is clearly showing all the limitations of the device in its communication : in all photos and videos, you can spot the limited FOV of the device, something that instead all the other AR companies try to hide. Watch a throuh-the-lens video of Tilt Five glasses. Kudos to Snap for it.
