The Magic Leap appears so a good AR headset, that improves the old HoloLens in many parts. For instance, the Meta 2 has a huge FOV if compared with HoloLens and Magic Leap, but it is a tethered device and this means that you are bound to stay at your desk to use it. Pros and Cons, as in every AR headset out there. I saw it super-stable, it was really as this little girl was on my desk. for an interesting comparison between Magic Leap and HoloLens, read this post)Ī little hologram inside Microsoft HoloLens. Then there are various little glitches and bugs of the device, that are pretty normal for what Magic Leap One actually is, that is a dev kit. So, even if the computational unit of the Magic Leap One is far superior to the one of HoloLens, part of it has to continously work to perform the tracking and the environment scanning and this degrades the performances. Then there is the HPU: IMHO, having a separate computational unit completely dedicated to performing 6DOF tracking relieves a lot the work of CPU and GPU. When I’ve tried HoloLens, I was really impressed by this, because I know how it is hard to make no-jittery augmented reality and Microsoft has really done a terrific job in doing this. For instance, tracking stability: on Magic Leap, the “holograms” appear as trembling a bit, while on HoloLens, they’re damn fixed. There are other things that seem worse than HoloLens, though. The picture is very beautiful and this shows the attention of the company towards beauty (Image by Magic Leap) The FOV is 45% bigger than HoloLens and has also a nice blending feature that reduces the effect of having a see-through window.Ī girl wearing Magic Leap.The virtual objects are perceived at different depths and this increases the realism a lot. There is hand tracking and eye tracking.The environment tracking is slightly better (apart from black and reflective surfaces, that are tracked really bad).The number of allowed polygons is superior (if I remember well, we are around 50-100K polygons in the scene vs the 20-30K of HoloLens).I said that it is like a HoloLens v2 because it seems better than HoloLens almost in everything, like for instance: This means that we are talking about a good augmented reality headset. Some opinions are more enthusiastic, others are colder, but I’ve read nowhere that the device is not valuable. First of all, I want to talk about the device: from all reviews, it appears as a solid HoloLens v2.
