Magic Leap: When Reality Hits the Fan
The Economist published a decent look into the tech of augmented reality a couple weeks ago.  They asserted two main ideas, both of which I agree with.  AR will:<p>1. Not achieve a form factor acceptable to the general consumer for a while.<p>2. Be more immediately useful to companies looking to improve worker productivity (like on assembly lines), where form factor is a lesser concern.<p>As a consequence of (1), we will probably start seeing more robust applications of AR tech using the smart phone and camera (like Pokemon GO and Snapchat filters) before we see any reasonable hardware device.
