Magic Leap sheds light on its retina-based augmented-reality 3D displays

Magic Leap is working on a tiny 3D technology that can shine images on your retinas, creating augmented reality that blends the real world with fantasy.

Rachel Metz, who wrote about Magic Leap for MIT Technology Review, explained what the mystery company (a startup that raised $542 million from Google last October) is actually working on and how it differs from other virtual reality projects. It will compete with Sony’s Morpheus, Facebook’s Oculus Rift, and Microsoft’s HoloLens virtual reality and augmented reality technologies.
