Magic Leap venture company is developing a "wearable display", it says it will provide excellent experience augmented reality, that is, before we see real, covering or the information on the characters in the game, without causing eyestrain. Magic Leap is not to bring the user into a virtual world, Magic equipment and a Leap is to allow users to see virtual objects in their world.
But the company still kept its technology, only a few people, which also included the MIT Technology Review senior editor had seen a prototype product.
On the EmTech Digital Conference last week in San Francisco, Magic Leap executives about their company's products, released a number of products on Magic Leap from prototype to real challenges faced by product information.
Magic Leap's CEO and founder Rony Abovitz said, the company is manufacturing depends on the field of Silicon Photonics chip. In an interview, Abovitz said his firm has developed new manufacturing technologies, and take advantage of this new technology in their production on the production line in Florida. Abovitz said, the company is now out of phase, and transition to a product launch phase.
Regardless of the technical Magic Leap development of product depends on its Silicon Photonics is able to create a new chip-making process, this is a great deal of commitment was true even for the semiconductor giant. Magic Leap funding of 592 million dollars, for a company that is still in its early stages is sufficient, but it may need more funds to make its consumer products make the leap.
Silicon Photonics is a broad term that refers to the semiconductor industry to make optical components at or near today's Silicon computer chip, Photonic Components can carry more data farther and faster, without heat, as well as the attenuation of the signal.
Integrate them with existing electronic components proved to be an engineering challenge. In 2013, the Intel with great fanfare announced that their mass production of silicon photonics components. Intel plans to make energy-saving, high-speed optical link to alleviate companies such as Facebook's server farm data transfer. In February of this year, Intel announced that it would delay the delivery of its first Silicon Photonics products, because of manufacturing problems facing. Even on Intel in the manufacture of new hardware, also face incredible challenges.
Magic Leap in Silicon Photonics and seems to be a very big bet, because the technology will greatly improve the effect of augmented reality. Traditional ar devices use mirrors and beam splitters will micro-image reflection in the monitor to eye, such systems also let light into the real world devices. Traditional device can also display a slightly different image to the right eye and left eye, so as to realize the effect, which is known as the three-dimensional, but also because the left eye and right eye image differences in people prone to headaches.
In order to eliminate this problem, Magic Leap to figure out a way to display an image, the reality of the images is not a left and a right image, but images into multiple images to the right eye and left eye. It can make your eyes more natural focus.
Given that Intel would be plagued by this technology, Magic can Leap really developed us is still unknown, but Magic Leap's first product has entered the production phase, I believe before long will be able to meet with developers. GUCCI Galaxy S5 Case
