Magic leap is way beyond designing low latency display drivers (hardware or software). They're designing and fabricating their own many-layer photonic crystals with complexity rivaling that of VLSI chips from a couple decades ago (except not on silicon, meaning they've had to reinvent a significant fraction of the process).
Latency may be an issue for them in terms of making seamless AR, due the limitations of existing camera hardware in terms of latency (existing camera hardware is not designed for low latency), but I suspect they're partnering (or will be partnering soon) with major players in the CMOS imaging realm. As far as display latency, I doubt it will be an issue for them. They're already having to design the entire display from the ground up---I suspect they have the forethought to design it as a low latency system.
