thats pretty sick for a working demo. I can't wait till it's fully operationally and it gets really fast paced.

This is the future, I'm glad I'm just 36 years old, I'll be able to play mainstream hologram games in a few years.

I noticed how slow he's moving. I think the technology 's video capture rate is really slow right now. Maybe they should add higher framerate capturing cameras to the device.

Fast forward to 2022 and the dev kit is now on iteration 2.

Woow I love this project from Microsoft. It shows how powerful Windows 10 can be.

If that is the speed of game play, this is obviously a concept demo...

Based on this, there is no reason they couldn't replace your existing body parts with damaged or bloody body parts if you get hit with enemy fire.

But every journalist who's actually used one says the image is confined to a very small area and disappears if you move your head wrong. So is it huge rock solid high def images bursting into your room like the demos? Or a small box with basic image quality that you have to hold still to look at?

[sensorieskin]
