MAGIC LEAP ONE - IN DEPTH REVIEW

There’s a lot that can be said about the Magic Leap One. It’s trying to do a ton—eye-tracking, hand-tracking, 6DoF controllers, real-time meshing and a number of other features that haven’t been seen in a mobile MR device before. And although its OS and Apps don’t fully utilize the tech available to them, Magic Leap One is an ambitious, well-made, but imperfect MR devkit that doesn’t quite live up to the hype, but is still the most complete and affordable mixed-reality (MR) computer out there.

Part 1: The Hardware If you’re not familiar, a mixed reality computer is a device that interacts with your senses and understands your physical space. It uses that information to allow you you to place digital objects in your world that feel real. The Magic Leap One consists of 3 elements: a light-pack, a headset and a controller — all of these components are beautifully designed, with colorful lights coming from unexpected places.
