Google and Magic Leap have joined forces to work on projects related to augmented reality. The announcement suggests that Magic Leap will be responsible for the hardware while Google will provide the operating system.
The collaboration, as reported by Magic Leap's official statement, is shrouded in mystery regarding the specifics of the partnership. Google had previously invested in the U.S.-based company, known for its work in the realm of augmented reality and the Magic Leap One Glasses. Despite not having achieved any significant breakthroughs, Magic Leap remains focused on advancing AR technology.
Google is also currently engaged in a similar partnership with Samsung, wherein Samsung supplies the hardware and Google offers the software. While the rumored device resulting from this collaboration has not been officially announced or released, the partnership between Google and Samsung remains intact and unaffected by the newly formed alliance with Magic Leap.
