Think & Act Spatially
summary
Spatial computing now arrives as a purchasable dev kit not a vapor promise: Magic Leap One ships as a full stack with Lightwear + Lightpack sensors, eye tracking, Lumin OS and Unity/Unreal support. Claim: it maps rooms like a mobile lidar and removes about three clicks from routine tasks by anchoring web UIs to doors and desks. Reality: lots of “hello world” prototypes, viable enterprise mapping and training, early experiential work (CES Harley‑Davidson), and crude but working volumetric telepresence — creepy quality today, useful scaffolding for collaboration.
