Magic Leap to ship first One AR headsets in 2018

Magic Leap teased its upcoming augmented reality headset. It's named Magic Leap One and a Creator Edition is expected to hit the market in 2018. The seven-year old startup has received over $1.9 billion in funding but hasn't marketed a single product to date. Even today's announcement is pretty sparse on details as Magic Leap did not reveal any specifications or even the expected launch date or pricing of this Creator Edition.

The firm gave the exclusive to Rolling Stone so you can head over here if you want to learn more about the secret AR headset.

Magic Leap, founded in 2011, remains a bit of a mystery, confounding tech writers and analysts with its ability to pull in seemingly endless amounts of investment from major companies and interest from bright minds. (The company has raised $1.9 billion to date.) While the secretive augmented-reality startup has released a few high-level concept videos that show what it hopes to achieve by injecting virtual creations into the real world, it hasn’t shown off a single piece of working technology to the public. It’s been so long that some publications have even publicly wondered if the entire thing is a sort of scheme. That, despite the company’s ever-increasing valuation – last listed at $6 billion.
