Jokes apart, what has happened in AR in 2018… and what can you expect to happen in 2019? Augmented Reality in 2018. Magic Leap.

What made the VR 820 so compelling was that it had 6-DoF tracking as well as integrated compute (Snapdragon 820) which was on par with all the latest flagship phones. It even had support for eye tracking, which we now know was through a partnership with none other than SMI.
