Is this more or less what Magic Leap attempted and ultimately failed to deliver?
- modeless 5y agoNo. Magic Leap succeeded in delivering a technically impressive AR experience with multiple (2) focal planes. Their failure was in not realizing that the overall experience wouldn't be useful enough to build a business with enough revenue to support the development cost. That's due to a combination of factors like low brightness, small FOV, weight, cost, and difficulty of developing world/object tracking for compelling AR apps. Also Microsoft totally stole their thunder with Hololens coming out first.
- vosper 5y agoMagic Leap is still going, they’re trying to sell to businesses now. I’ve no idea how they’re doing, though I expect they’ll need to make a lot of sales to recoup all the investors money.
