Microsoft infused life into Holographic technology with its HoloLens; bringing the future to 2015. Microsoft HoloLens seamlessly blends high-definition holograms with your real world; thus making augmented reality a viable concept. With an integrated computing unit, the HoloLens has computing capabilities that exceed your average laptop. Say no to cables, or wires; just put them on, and get going!

The possibilities are endless! Real time gaming; imagine Mario running around on your table, squishing Goombas. Real time designing; imagine designing a car in 3-D space using hand gestures, then using a 3D Printer to breathe life into your design. Watching the TV without a television screen, GPS mapping on the road, and so much more. All you need is a HoloLens kit, and imagination.
The HoloLens also has built in speakers just over your ears, that use scientific mumbo-jumbo to induce something called “Spatial Sound.” It characterizes how the human ear receives sound from a specific location, Microsoft HoloLens artificially creates sound so that you can hear holograms from anywhere in the room. The speakers provide a precise audio experience without headphones that is immersive, yet won’t block out the real world.
If that wasn’t enough, it looks like something out of a Sci-Fi movie, but cooler! There is a lot of computer stuff happening on the inside, but for an average user, it spells magic on the outside.
The future is now. Also, at least you won’t look like this:
