Apple's announcement today is a very good validation of the overall XR/spatial computing sector," Magic Leap founder Rony Abovitz wrote to me. Companies like NVIDIA, Samsung, Google, Lenovo, HP, and Acer sought portions of underdeveloped systems, and VR's winter was harsh to many. Is this the device Quest Pro should have been?

OMG, it’s almost 3 years that I write these roundups… the first week peek was exclusive for my blog subscribers and it featured as best news the release of Google Blocks and in the other news something about Samsung Gear VR… how much time has passed since then! Magic Leap raises other $350M. Iron Man VR demo has been released!

In my opinion , the true error is with the Vive 1 , that will get a price that is higher than the one of all the competitors… and that will cost as much as a Samsung Odyssey, notwithstanding its far lower features. I had a chance to demo the Oculus Santa Cruz today at #gdc18 ! Magic Leap releases its SDK.

The HTC Vive is arguably the best out there, but having to buy a souped-up laptop just to run it, paying full price for brief games that feel more like demos, and trailing a huge cable off your head and fumbling to mount trackers on your ceiling…it’s not ideal. But it’s still incredible enough to give a taste of where it’s headed.

Apple's passthrough magic might help explain why the industry is making such big shifts before this $3,500 spatial computer even ships. Saudi Arabia-owned Magic Leap took $500+ million more from the "sovereign" investment arm of the state to continue developing its technologies for transparent optical AR.

Despite the marked absence of Samsung, all the usual players were there. To me it seems like the popularity of Tilt Brush might have influenced the creation of Life of Us, and the team let the desire to produce a technical demo with confetti painting features drive the storyline—rather than the other way around. And it’s not a movie.
