In this video, I give some extended impressions on the Magic Leap One Creators Edition AR headset which I recently picked up.
I have been following AR developments with interest over the past four-years and I finally decided to jump in by picking up a second-hand ML1 and testing it out rigorously over the past week or so.
This is what I think of this device, but also my overall opinion on augmented reality technology at this moment in time.

That "fundamental physics" limitation is probably what encouraged Apple to go as over the top as it did with its VR hardware and what got Microsoft to cut back on its work with Hololens. As much as I prefer this tech to VR pass-through, maybe the latter is the future of AR after all.

Excellent video they are on ebay for £189 what do you think is it worth it.

@ImmersedRobot 10 ай бұрын

In terms of just getting an early look at this type of AR technology, I'd say yes, for that price it's worth it. However, please BE AWARE that Magic Leap have now announced that this device will no longer operate after December 2024. It's a weird situation, but after that time frame all the Magic Leap One devices will be locked and will no longer work at all. It's not the usual situation of them 'no longer being supported', but a case of they will actually no longer be useable.

Wow thanks for letting me know I will give it a miss and probably get a rift. had the DK2 8 year's ago then rifts. 👍

when you look at fake monitors in ML what approximate resolution do they have?

@ImmersedRobot 2 жыл бұрын

Great question, and a hard one to judge. I’m not aware of a formal answer on that. If you had them at a comfortable distance and visible through part of the FOV of the headset to look like a real monitor, I’d guess at no higher than 720p.

@atriusvinius319 2 жыл бұрын

@@ImmersedRobot ok i see. I dream about at least 1080p virtual monitors/TVs. May be the Quest 3/Index2 or ML 2 will be able to deliver such resolution

@jackshao126 2 жыл бұрын

@@atriusvinius319 i feel like with virtual monitors the resolution is low but not limited by size constraints like a regular monitor, so you could have a 720p resolution virtual monitor but have it be the size of a wall. Also the resolution would scale depending on viewing distance

Good video, I'm thinking of picking one up off of eBay for mainly a video viewer. Can it run Netflix from a browser? Disney plus? How good did KZfaq work? Prime Video? Does it have options to lock the screen to your head? Does it run any sort of emulators of old game consoles? Can you connect a Bluetooth gamepad to it?

@ImmersedRobot 2 жыл бұрын

All good questions and I wish I still had mine to test. KZfaq worked fine and I’m almost certain I tried Netflix too from a browser (if memory serves). I’m not aware of any emulators which are available for it, but certainly not on the integrated store to the best of my knowledge.

Way over-powered for a video viewer. You could get a quest 2 or really any VR headset and do just as well. Seeing that the focus is the video and the environment secondary, may as well save a ton of money. Unless of course you have a baby or something and it's essential you have a foot firmly on either side of reality

I can't see anyone outside of specific job situations choosing to wear glasses, so with that I don't see a world where AR via glasses will take off. For medical and industry, often where there already might be a need for eye protection, then sure, but not the every day consumer. Early on with Magic Leap it wasn't clear that this would be glasses, they were very vague about the form factor, which was a bit of a red flag; and the CEO sold a pitch where you'd wake up in the morning and converse with a virtual assistant in the same way you might grab your phone and check your calendar. Sounds very sci-fi, and certainly didn't conjure any image of putting on a wrap around wired headset, which would make having your head on a pillow uncomfortable. I think the tech it uses to project the image is cool, but if it is required to be pushed through a screen to your eyes---another thing the CEO kinda spoke vaguely about was having the image constructed via your brain, which didn't sound like a screen---then it feels like a dead end of an idea. I'm all for some sort of holodeck breakthrough, but glasses are a UX nightmare that's failed over and over to hit the everyday broad consumer level.

I believe good AR is a ways off. Probably further than most enthusiast think.

@ImmersedRobot 2 жыл бұрын

I think it’s going to take a long time to have consumer, light weight, slim AR glasses that do full, digital overlays for use inside and outside in sunlight. Which is probably what you mean by ‘good’. I do think we’ll get limited use, notification-based pseudo AR glasses at some point in the next few years. If I could have a good quality display pinned to the world in glasses with a good form factor then that would be a great step to get to.

I'm not sure what happened with this company but I had such high expectations years ago . Still nothing to offer kind of crazy all those people that invested in billions into this company and it's gone nowhere

It’s still better than the hololens though, I tried all three when we were experimenting with ar on a construction site
