Quotation, Paraphrase & Summary Exercise
URL for passage: https://www.asme.org/engineering-topics/articles/manufacturing-design/the-
hololens-revolution
The source article, “The Hololens Revolution” from Mechanical Engineering magazine,
will assist me in creating an investment proposal for Initech because it addresses the future
possibilities as well as current complications preventing Hololens from reaching such goals. The
author, Ahmed K. Noor, predicts a future where Hololens is less cumbersome to wear and more
efficient in reading a wearers environment and adjusting to it. He believes that holographic
headsets will evolve better hands-on manipulation and will allow virtual teleportation. Initech
will want to know that there is a viable future in the development of hologram technology. This
investment opportunity with Hololens will continue to grow and evolve. Noor, who is a
professor of Visualization Engineering, also speculates that, “The now-ubiquitous handheld
screens will be replaced by headsets and wearable devices that provide digital and projected
interfaces everywhere.” This means the technology will be desired not only by corporations and
businesses but will eventually grow to be as popularly demanded as smartphones and tablets
by the public.
Despite Noor’s optimism for the future of holographic computing he concedes that
technology hasn’t fully caught up with his predictions for the future. He does note current
developments in the process of overcoming some of these hurdles. Projects underway across
the nation are focusing on better understanding hand gestures, eye tracking technology, and
voice recognition. Initech needs to be apprised of complications Hololens will face in its
development. Informing Initech that these complications are currently being addressed is also
reassuring to the investors. Research projects designed to overcome these obstacles are being
conducted by the most powerful and influential technological companies such as, Microsoft,
Google, Amazon and Apple. These companies have the resources to make the technological
breakthroughs needed to push holographic computing into the future. This article is
informative concerning Hololens’ future and complications and it written by a qualified author
who is educated in the field.
