	[[Magic Leap]] is an [[augmented reality]] company founded by [[Rony Abovitz]]. Developing in stealth mode since 2011, Magic Leap's goal was to create a [[virtual retinal display]] system using [[light fields]]. The company has raised over 590 million dollars from [[Google]], Qualcomm, Andressen Horowitz and other investors. On December 9, 2015, it was revealed that Magic Leap was raising $827 million dollars in a new round of venture funding. They have created the [[Magic Leap One]] headset and the [[Magic Leap 2]].

	The main device of Magic Leap is a [[optical see-through head-mounted display ~~(OST-HMD)~~\|optical see-through head-mounted display]] with a tiny projector that shines light onto a transparent lens, which deflects the light onto the user's retina. Named [[dynamic digitized lightfield signal]] by Magic Leap, this process is different from the traditional stereoscopic 3D technology used in movies and other [[VR]] devices such as [[Oculus Rift]]. Dynamic digitized lightfield signal does not trick your eyes to create 3D effects, instead it utilizes the projector and lens to shine light into your eyes directly. The result is sharper and more realistic rendered imageries. Similar to [[HoloLens]], Magic Leap intends to use its technology to blend the real world with that of the artificial.
