Magic Leap is an Augmented Reality device founded by Rony Abovitz and developed by Magic Leap (Company). Developing in stealth mode since 2011, Magic Leap's goal is to create Cinematic Realism. The company has raised over 590 million dollars from Google, Qualcomm, Andressen Horowitz and other investors.
Magic Leap is a headset with a tiny projector consist of specialized lenses and prisms that will beam images onto the user's retinas directly. Named Dynamic Digitized Lightfield Signal by Magic Leap, this process is different from the traditional stereoscopic 3D technology used in movies and other VR devices such as Oculus Rift. Dynamic Digitized Lightfield Signal does not trick your eyes to create 3D effects, instead it utilizes the projector to shine light into your eyes directly. The result is sharper and more realistic rendered imageries. Similar to HoloLens, Magic Leap intends to use its technology to blend the real world with that of the artificial.
