We head to Seattle to see what this $3,500 AR headset is all about.

I would like to test this and wish more competitors come to bringing this innovation to full reality.

[semikocuk]

I find it incredibly hard to believe that it will actually work as advertised

[sherazkamran]

Waiting for our AR SAO. Some will understand.

[dalecomputer-repairist]

This would be great for computer technicians in training. Practice working on a digital model of a device first!

[keeprising]

Can you see inside people with these on? I saw an ad making it look that way.

[michaelbooster]

dont worry chineses will make cheper version of this

[katelynphillips]

I understand enterprise and industrial use of the HoloLens 2, but I do not believe it should be used while operating on a patient for safety risks alone. Hands free but will be distracting. The principle of this technology is advanced but we all know that bugs are just a part of all technology.

Microsoft hololens 2 great for future but we still missing printers
We see things from the Microsoft hololens 2 must print out

[HunterGeophysicsAustralia]

Any idea how this feels wearing them all day? Comfortable or uncomfortable? Too heavy? Or are they good to wear?

[ersanseer]

Cool that they flip up and work with glasses. But those features won't bring widespread adoption. Product designers need to focus more on the meat & potatoes... better/smaller hardware, and especially better software that enterprise users actually need.

[Drallion_Tyanu]

Now we need this to support mobile networks and make it usable as a phone so we can add Unlimited Data in it and use it everywhere.

Yes, everyone will want to walk around looking like they're about to attack the Death Star.

Guides is where it's at to learn anything and it show u the pictures and tell u wat to do u gonna b set

[chanj]

I really wonder how that could be built, and which programming languages were used

[chiraqburbs]

So excited for the future I cant wait til they on holo like 8 and u can basic do anything see anything learn anything live in see a place tht u can create tht trailer with the trees all look all puprle amazing by a ocean holo 2 was legit I no went b like tht tho but we making it there

All we need to know? Twice the price, half the buys

[AtomicSurf]

All of the laser display elements of the Hololens2, including the lasers, scanning mirrors, and guides, were invented by a company called Microvision. Microsoft buys these critical parts from Microvision to enable their design.

Unfortunately, Microsoft pretends they invented the whole thing. Microvision can't speak up because they are under an NDA.

Close up pictures of a prototype unit shown in another video reveal that the Microvision logo is on the PC boards. Microvision did admit that their name was on the boards when asked in a conference call.

So, just remember, this is only possible because of proprietary tech purchased from Microvision.

why they didn't demonstrate the military applications? it would have been fun to see she that take up a virtual weapon. They have a $479 million military contract, why not?

[derekmiller]

These AR devices will have unlimited applications. It may be targeted at Enterprise at the moment. but it will go to the rest of us. I Imagine the advertisers jumping on this. Walking down a High St being bombarded by stuff. Street directions etc from GPS. Reminds me of a HUD in military aircraft. It must have AI applications too.
