Magic Leap is going to be releasing its first generation of hardware in the next 6 months to certain applications and investors. All of the VR/AR world is awaiting this moment.
https://futurism.com/we-are-just-six-months-away-from-magic-leap-one/Big things are coming in the VR/AR space very soon. Better hardware and Better Applications makes for that 10x in market size all analysts are predicting
Why will it be so expensive? 1500-2000$ sounds a lot to me for a VR device from unknown (for me) company. What will be so different/special about it?
Magic leap is is one of the biggest innovators in the VR space. They have raised billions of dollars in funding
What is so special about it? That is what's so unique about magic leap, they have got a lot of funding and this is their first product release to the world. I assure you this is heavily hyped in the VR/AR community
Making the current VR headsets Smaller, more immersive, equipped with the latest upgrades in body tracking technology. The magic leap one is
potentially a game changer in VR hardware
For applications like VibeHub. big upgrades in VR hardware means we are one step closer to mass adoption
Magic leap was the first AR set announced, but it always was a mystery of what exactly was was going on there, it was funded and promoted by Google, but since then, HoloLens, the AR set from Microsoft, steal the spot of AR, with more demos, hardware imaging, publicity, there was no mystery, so HoloLens is now better known than magic leap, I first got introduced by hololens, magic leap was unknown to me, now I'm not sure which one will be better, the one we know the features and what to expect, or the one we don't know almost anything about besides being an AR set that got billions in funding by GOOGLE, certainly we only could wait to see which one will be the king and the second, because both will sell well, just one will be the standard, but regardless, VIVEHUB should create a platform for both
, so at last it doesn't matter much to the project.
