AR/VR tech isn’t there yet, no matter how hard they try. It won’t become mainstream until the eyeware is much lighter and just as powerful as today’s devices.

That’s why they’re trying hard. Otherwise, it really will never happen.

@La Sal I’m well aware of that I was just adding to the fact op was talking about it being smaller in the future if they keep trying it wasn’t totally in reference to the video

It isn’t the oculus 2 kinda breakthrough I’ll hold for further development AR type games an life interaction has huge possibilities I can imagine the tree of possibility that branch off of AR use in real world

I think the most exciting word you used was “interesting”. You’re reviewing tech that is doing incredible things and has the potential to be amazing for in and outside of tech. You just SEEM unimpressed and “above it all”.

Wow, compact ar glasses need to be for consumers.

@Desharr Saddler For AR/VR, the key is immersion. The block-out feature is on point and will really add up to the viewing experience.

can you read the text …… if you display your windows pc on the wall… can you read anything? resolution wasnt mentioned because its probably fkn terrible.
Phillip Scott

here is how you know this product is more than likely not worth its salt…they did not bother to show a “THROUGH THE LENS” view..WHY NOT? Probably because the company does not want you to compare the FOV (field of view which is the vr layer) …i bet the vr layer of this product has no relationship with the geometry of the environment and surrounding objects

for people who wear glasses, this is a real turn off, i tried magic leap 1, it was good and better then hololens 1, but it was hard to use when i had my glasses on. Also it was a shared device, the lens insert are not cheap, and i would be only using the device for 1-2 hrs, so makes no sense to lose my glasses and add lens inserts, or use contacts. So it seems this is targeted as personal devices, however cost is always an issue making this a shared devices, hope magic leap can come out with a solution to this..

Are they “peril sensitive”?
Ray Price
March 11, 2022 at 8:42 am
They should sell those inside-out tracking controllers separately. I think there are some upcoming headsets without a controller option that could make those very desirable.

AR or XR are the future, not VR

Both AR and VR are the future. I want to be able to escape to virtual worlds, without seeing the real one, hearing the real one or even feeling the real one.

I still love and use my original magic leap almost every day but it seriously sucks that they went the direction of being enterprise and dropped all of their ambitions.

Blimey I thought this tanked ages ago. Magic Leap must have money to burn.

I think the separate processor is going to be necessary for a while. I don’t see anything wrong with it! Wish the Quest 2 would have one to increase the graphics and overall power!
JTHBS

The point you mention in the end is also my main problem with AR in the form factor of a Magic Leap. I have a Magic Leap 1 at home but i barely use it becase my glasses dont fit under it . I would love to spend more time with it because it is a fascinating piece of technology and i hase some very fun Apps on it. But i cant put contact lenses on every time just to spend 2h gaming or watching AR experiences. On the other hand i can spend hours and hours in VR every day on my Quest…where my glasses are no problem at all. Thats why i think that Mixed Reality devices will have a big usability advantage for the near future.

Magic Leap is probably one of the most over hyped company in the past few years. Their headset is almost utterly useless.
Cloud validation
March 11, 2022 at 8:04 pm
It’s crazy how over hyped this product was a few years ago and then it just died such a disappointment they advertised this thing like it was ready to go to market and change the world
The VRtist
March 11, 2022 at 9:24 pm
These are also expensive sunglasses with the segmented dimming. It’s a sweet new feature that will really make AR thrive. Not a fan on wearing a hockey puck processor on my hip but if it’ll make the headset lighter, I’m game. I wouldn’t mind oculus doing the same thing to make their headset lighter.

It’s almost as if whoever runs the Magic Leap marketing department never got fired even though the first time around they totally over promised and under delivered. Another vague promo video using a credible tech news source to push hype around product capabilities while offering not a single real view at them.

Been using VR for 3 years now and I love it but AR clearly has the greater potential.
But it’s also going to be harder to do well enough to have mass appeal so going the business route is likely the best bet for now.
To be sufficiently useful and unobstructive it’s going to have to improve a little more.
I don’t mind the belt clip thing.
I don’t understand why there is so much resistance to such an approach?

Magic leap the the Theranos of AR/VR.
Now they pivoted to AR that is only for companies that can pay £10k and even then all you get to see is a ghost image in a tiny square on the lenses.

What Roger Ebert was to movies, Scott Stein is to tech. A well balanced analysis without the boring techno drivel. He makes the products’ attributes accessible to everyday sensibilities and understanding. More of this guy.

The technology and what to watch on headsets just isn’t anywhere near good enough yet, unfortunately.

Business applications is the best but seems very boring for the general public.
