I can't not think about this Hyper-Reality video when AR advances are announced. https://vimeo.com/166807261

This is going to sound super dumb and I haven't been following AR / VR at all...but I thought Magic Leap were creating AR technology that worked _without Goggles_? As in projected visible light that I could see with my naked eye? Am I mad?

Yeah, I thought it was something like a holographic projection table.

My impression was that it was a device for entertainment in auditoriums/stadiums, maybe placed behind the chair's back, launching light rays to the person seated behind.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Is there an actual difference between this "Mixed Reality" and AR, or are they just inventing a new term for marketing purposes?

They really need to add "blockchain based" to the description.

And "AI powered", or at the very least "data-science driven".

My south Floridian side really wants them to be successful, but my techie side despises their secrecy and "demos" aka photoshopped graphics and cgi videos.
