Magic Leap Launch

It certainly seems like it's been a long time coming but the VR outfit Magic Leap has launched... a new site. The intro interaction is an undeniably impressive, immersive, beast - as you'd expect from a company hellbent on being the frontrunner for augmented reality.

Aside from a pretty new site, the real story is that the Creator Edition of their goggles, controller and Lightpack (puck shaped computer) will be available in 2018, along with an SDK to get some "real world" application of the hardware out there.

Reading sci-fi for the majority of my life has made me apprehensive on too much escapism into digital worlds but, despite that, I can't help but be excited by the prospect of some executed AR. Hopefully Magic Leap is able to deliver.
