Let's hope so. We see a lot of promises with this and HoloLens, but somehow production versions are still not here. I'm still not really sure if the latter isn't just a prank, or at least mostly post-recording CG.

Since you're bringing up Marvel - I fear the reality, at least with first released products, will turn out somewhat like this:

The first video had a text disclaimer at the bottom of the entire video insisting that there was no post processing or CGI.

The second video did not.

I rest my case ;)


I... totally fell for that. Thanks for making me realise.


HoloLens has been seen and used outside of the company, however. They have been touring several cities and showing off Hololens units to developers. I am not an MS employee, but I did get to try it out and do some Q+A with Hololens developers.

I don't think any magic leap units have ever been used by those outside the company, but I'm excited to see what they come up with.



I stand corrected. Thank you!
