The Dark Side of Waveguides Flat and thin waveguides are certainly impressive optical devices. It is almost magical how you can put light into what looks a lot like thin plates of glass and an small image will go on…
Largely A Summary With Some New Information I have covered a lot of material and even then only glossed at the surface of what I have learned about Magic Leap (ML). By combining the information available (patent applications, articles, and…
Some Newer Information On Fiber Scanning Through some discussions and further searching I found some more information about Fiber Scanning Displays (FSD) that I wanted to share. If anything, this material further supports the contention that Magic Leap (ML) is…
Sorry, No Fiber Scan Displays For those that only want my conclusion, I will cut to the chase. Anyone that believes Magic Leap (ML) is going to have a Laser Fiber Scanned Display (FSD) anytime soon (as in the next decade)…
The Goal – Explain What is Magic Leap Doing Magic Leap has a way of talking about what they hope to do someday and not necessarily what they can do anytime soon. Their patent applications are full of things that are totally…
As per my previous post Magic Leaps display technology what Magic Leap is using in their YouTube through the lens demos may or may not be what they will use in the final product. I’m making an assessment of their publicly available videos and patents.…
So, what display technology is Magic Leap (ML) using, at least in their posted videos? I believe the videos rule out a number of the possible display devices, and by a process of elimination it leaves only one likely technology. Hint: it…
So what is Magic Leap doing? That is the $1.4 billion dollar question. I have been studying their patents as well as videos and articles about them and frankly a lot of it does not add up. The “Hype Factor”…
Microsoft’s Hololens is perhaps the most most well known device using flat “waveguide” optics to “combine” the real world with computer graphics. Note there are no actual “holograms” anywhere in Hololens by the scientific definition. At left is a picture from the…
In general, people find the combining of an image with the real world somewhat magical; we see this with heads up displays (HUDs) as well as Augmented/Mixed Reality (AR/MR) headsets. Unlike Starwars R2D2 projection into thin air which was…
