“We are excited to collaborate with @Google. CEO of Magic Leap @rossrosenberg stated: We are excited to announce a strategic technological partnership with Google to combine Magic Leap’s expertise in Augmented Reality (AR) and leadership in the field of optics with Google’s technological platforms and collaborate on Extended Reality (XR) solutions and experiences. Today, AR is leveraged by companies to train employees, create spatial experiences for consumers, envision and design new buildings, and enhance medical teams with better ways to visualize patient care. But the transformative potential of AR is endless, and this partnership will help expand immersive experiences, bring greater utility, and broaden the reach of AR!”
In practice, Google’s technological platforms together with Magic Leap’s experience in augmented reality (AR) and its leadership in the field of optics, will provide to create new solutions and immersive experiences.
Not only that, the partnership potentially signals greater competition for Apple and Meta, in the hardware space and metaverse experiences.
It is, therefore, about succeeding in the mission of promoting the future of the ecosystem based on Extended Reality (XR) and Augmented Reality (AR).
Metaverse: Google with Magic Leap together to advance the potential of AR/XR technologies
Shahram Izadi, vice president and general manager of AR/XR at Google, stated:
“We look forward to combining Magic Leap’s leadership in optics and manufacturing with our technologies to bring a wider range of immersive experiences to the market. By joining efforts, we can advance the future of the XR ecosystem with unique and innovative product offerings.”
The new partnership is nothing more than an important step in the long-standing relationship that already exists between the two companies.
Apparently, therefore, the metaverse still has a lot to offer. In this regard, at the end of March 2024, the co-founder of Ethereum, Vitalik Buterin, also expressed himself during a conference.
According to Buterin, in fact, the metaverse still needs a definition. Not only that, at the moment it is often conceived more as a brand than as a product.
