The Magic Leap uses two 1.3-megapixel lenses at a 120Hz refresh rate. The 2018 startup raised about $3 billion for its Magic Leap One. Being a groundbreaking piece of tech, the Hololens doesn’t come cheap.Ĭurrent pricing starts at $3,500 and has mostly been marketed to a business audience. The device also tracks eye and hand movement so that you can interact naturally with the virtual world. The glasses/headset features two 2k 120Hz displays that ensure a resolution capable of integrating 3D objects at a level others units just can’t. The Hololens is the most advanced AR device currently available. Soon, the tools we use to access the Metaverse – and AR will be a huge part of that new world - will be as ubiquitous as televisions and smartphones.ĬRN takes a look at five AR devices that are already turning our world into the metaverse. Tech companies and businesses took notice, seeing possible applications in 3D modeling, warehouse logistics, training, industrial applications, design… the list goes on and on. One of the first widely used examples of AR in gaming was the wildly popular Pokémon GO. Beyond viral games with avatars interacting, business leaders see the metaverse as a more efficient way to interact with customers, immersing them in a digital experience much like a video game.Īugmented reality (AR) mashes digital information onto an image or viewing area of a real space, modifying the environment with visual elements or other sensory stimuli. The concept may have started with online world-building games like Roblox and Minecraft. When Mark Zuckerberg re-christened his Facebook social media company to Meta back in October, he may have marked one of the biggest paradigm shifts the tech world has seen.
Companies are investing huge sums of money to be at the forefront of the Metaverse movement.
The Metaverse stirs our imagination like no other tech concept – we are at the beginning stages of virtual world building that will shape our existence for years to come.
