"Magic Leap plans to bring its over 15 years of experience in the AR space to the booming AI smart glasses market through a continued partnership with Google XR. Also: I wore the Meta Ray-Bans' successor for a month, and my buying verdict is two-fold On Wednesday, Magic Leap published a blog post detailing its plan for its next-generation AR glasses. In its collaboration with Google, the company said that it is focused on developing AR glasses prototypes that "balance visual quality, comfort, and manufacturability.""
""What makes this prototype stand out is how natural it feels to look through," said Shahram Izadi, VP/GM of Google XR. In particular, the company plans to combine Magic Leap's waveguides -- the company's technology that allows for the realistic and precise overlay of digital content on the physical world around you -- with Google's Raxium microLED light engine, which refers to display technology that is smaller, brighter, and lower-power, and ideal for in-lens smartglasses displays."
Magic Leap extended its partnership with Google XR to develop next-generation AR/AI smart glasses. A prototype was displayed at the Future Investment Initiative, presenting a black-rimmed design similar to Meta Ray-Ban Wayfarers and Android XR prototypes. The collaboration pairs Magic Leap's precision waveguides for realistic, precise digital overlays with Google's Raxium microLED light engine for smaller, brighter, lower-power in-lens displays. The companies emphasize balancing visual quality, comfort, and manufacturability. Google XR leadership noted the prototype's natural feel and uncommon clarity and stability in AR. Magic Leap brings over 15 years of AR experience to the effort.
