After months of teasing, the mysterious Google-backed Magic Leap has finally released some undoctored footage of its "augmented reality" platform, which projects holograms into your field of vision.

Past Magic Leap demonstration videos were made with the help of special effects shop WETA Workshop. But superimposed text on the video says it was taken "without the use of special effects or compositing."
