On May 23, Microsoft held a conference in Shanghai proclaiming a recent agreement with Chinese government to sell Hololens in China.
WHAT IS HOLOLENS?
Microsoft HoloLens, known under development as Project Baraboo, is a pair of mixed reality smartglasses developed and manufactured by Microsoft. HoloLens gained popularity for being one of the first computers running the Windows Mixed Reality platform under the Windows 10 operating system. The HoloLens can trace its lineage to Kinect, an add-on for Microsoft's Xbox gaming console that was introduced in 2010.
HOW DOES HOLOLENS OPERATE?
There are a variety of sensors inside the HoloLens, including an inertial measurement unit, an ambient light sensor, and four environment understanding cameras. They are combined with a depth sensing camera to allow HoloLens to map spaces. Microsoft also has a 2-megapixel HD camera to capture videos and photos along with four microphones inside the headset that are used to pick up voice commands from users.
WHY DO WE WANT TO BUY HOLOLENS?
The device allows wearers to see digital images projected into the real world. Those images can even be pinned to real objects, so users could, for instance, fix the family calendar on a refrigerator and even watch movies on a wall, no TV necessary. With gestures and voice commands, users can create and manipulate the digital holograms.
