Magic Leap, the augmented reality glasses startup company that received an investment from Google worth $542 million, released a video that provided a glimpse into the technology that it is working on.
Titled “Just another day in the office of Magic Leap,” the video starts with an office worker opening a video on YouTube then placing the screen above his desk while he reads through his e-mail. With the inbox appearing in front of him as a hologram, the user then scrolls through several holographic folders using some hand gestures.
The user taps on an icon for a video game named Victory, which instantly places the user in a virtual reality game environment. The user then walks over to a nearby table to pick up a real toy gun. Holograms and data appear above each of the blasters on the table. The player uses the toy gun that he picked up to shoot at an invading army of virtual reality robots, along with a digital laser cannon that the user summoned.
