Introduction and Background As I discussed in Apple AR Patent Clutter and Hiding AR Patents, Apple has very few of what I would consider “serious” AR patent applications. Of the very few interesting patent applications they have filed, almost all…
First, a Request for Input on Apple’s AR Effort Before I get started on the article (although this is related), I would like to make a request for help in identifying what Apple is doing in AR. Apple has R&D…

Just a quick note today about a heartwarming story that involves Augmented Reality. About two years ago I wrote an article about Evergaze, a Richardson Texas startup, working on passthrough AR technology for people with low vision. Evergaze is headed…
I have been studying the Magic Leap One (ML1) for a few weeks and have taken over 1,000 photos and made many measurements. I’m bursting with things I want to talk about, so I am planning to release a series…

Introduction I found Rony Abovitz’s, CEO of Magic Leap, responses in Recode’s February 13, 2018, Interview to be like cotton candy, full of air and with no nutrients. In my prior article, I was able to confirm that Magic Leap…
At Recode’s Code Media conference on Feb. 13, 2018 (a few hours ago as I write this), they live streamed an interview with Ronny Abovitz, CEO of Magic Leap and NBA commissioner Adam Silver. The interview included a prerecorded video with Shaquille…
FSD, Waveguides, and Focus/Depth Planes – A Fatally Flawed Foundation While you can’t find what Magic Leap hypes as “photonic light field chip” anywhere in their patent application, they do discuss diffractive (mostly) waveguides. I have previously discussed some of…
One of my big issues with my Dec. 20th Instant Analysis of the extremely limited and highly controlled reveal of the Magic Leap One was that you could not see the eyes of the users. I have since had multiple…
