Magic Leap wants
game makers, filmmakers, and other creators to build augmented reality
experiences on its platform announced how that will happen. Magic Leap is
launching a development platform. It’s just opened a Developers section of its
website where people can sign up for access to its SDK, which will work with
the Unreal and Unity game engines. The company tweets that the SDK will be
released soon. Magic Leap has stayed notoriously quiet in general. No one
really knew it existed until Google and other top firms invested $542 million
last October.
Now it gave a
more detailed account of how it will bring AR to our faces. The platform’s
compatibility with Unity and the technologies would work together after he
found Magic Leap job listings referencing Unity back in October. Another piece
of big news announced was that Magic Leap has spent part of its $592 million in
funding to build a 300,000 square foot pilot manufacturing facility in Florida
for its photonic lightfield chip. This chip powers its augmented reality
headset that works by shooting light directly onto your eye, rather than
sticking a screen in front of it.
