Lucasfilm’s ILMxLAB & Magic Leap Bring C-3PO & R2-D2 to Life in Their ‘Lost Droids’ Mixed Reality Test

The Virtual reality startup Magic Leap has partnered with Lucasfilm‘s ILMxLAB to record “Lost Droids,” an augmented and mixed reality Star Wars experience test that brings R2-D2 and C-3PO into someone’s actual living room.

Magic Leap’s immersive experience features C-3PO walking over and asking to have a word with you an arrangement with Jabba the Hutt not being settled. R2-D2 then projects a hologram across a coffee table in the room that shows stormtroopers and TIE fighters chasing after the Millennium Falcon. C-3PO ends with saying “How did we get into this mess?,” after the Falcon is seen disappearing into hysperspace.
