[UPDATE – 13.05.2020 – 12:01 CET] According to a voice recording shared by Reddit-user “KoolKoda” taken from a VR/AR Association live webinar, Microsofts Alison Fehling has denied an upcoming takeover of MicroVision.

[02:09] “I just heard back from our PR team and apparently it is not true, it is a rumor that we [Microsoft] are buying MicroVision. That’s all I have at the moment. Sorry- probably disappointing to a lot of you. No truth to the rumor. We don’t have anything to add at the moment.”
The story published yesterday by Florida Independent seems to be based on a story published on TodaysFive from May 8th, 2020.

Microsoft is reportedly purchasing MicroVision, a leading name in ultra-miniature sensing and projection. According to Florida Independent, Microsoft is acquiring the company to further push into the automotive market.

MicroVision uses laser beam scanning and has developed numerous patents related to the technology. Microsoft has already worked directly with the company by using the MicroVision MEMS engine in its HoloLens 2 device.
Florida Independent suggests Microsoft will announce the acquisition today. It is worth noting MicroVision is based in Redmond, which is where Microsoft is also headquartered.
