"I knew there was major potential with [AR glasses], I just didn't share their design philosophy." So, Xu left in late 2016, moved back to his native Beijing, and cofounded the startup nReal to make his own AR glasses. Unveiled today at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, the nReal Light is, the company claims, the lightest and most portable AR glasses available yet. Microsoft's HoloLens and the Magic Leap One, by comparison, cost $3,000 and $2,400, respectively. "What Magic Leap is doing, it's more looking ahead to the future ... it's not quite ready to go mainstream now."
