23. Why Windows Mixed Reality?
Give your users the freedom
to interact with your
software using gesture,
gaze, and voice—as well as
traditional inputs like mice,
keyboards, and controllers.
Inside-out tracking lets your
users jump right in without
setting up room-based gear,
and eliminates room size
requirements so they can
experience your app almost
anywhere.
Microsoft HoloLens is the
first self-contained
holographic computer, and a
broad range of new devices
with a broad range of
capabilities are on the way.
More devices means more
users and more demand.
.
Windows Mixed Reality
improves your workflow
between coding and testing.
View your 2D desktop from
within your headset or view
your physical surroundings
without fully removing your
headset.

26. History of HoloLens
• Codenamed Project HoloLens
• Chief inventor Alex Kipman
• Official title is technical fellow
• He dreamed up Kinect in at the end of 2007
and set a vision which incorporated HoloLens
• It is the start of a transforming world
• In the new reality, sensors will be anywhere
• A visual computing platform controlled by speech and gesture

the next computing interface”

40. Built-in speakers.
A precise audio experience without
headphones that is immersive, yet
won’t block out the real world.
Spatial sound.
Using a scientific model that
characterizes how the human ear
receives sound from a specific
location, Microsoft HoloLens
synthesizes sound so that you can
hear holograms from anywhere in
the room.

55. Collaborate and communicate
HoloLens enables colleagues from around the world to collaborate in the same
environment or with the same objects, interacting with one another and sharing the
experience as if they were together.
56. Data Overlay
Users can project overlays that display important associated information, helping them
gain a clearer understanding of the project or activity at hand
57. Holographic renderings of a product, building, or any other object, can placed, sized and
manipulated in a mix of real world and virtual environments.
3D modeling
58. Full holographic representations of objects and processes enable training to be far more
effective as users explore and interact in scenarios that look and respond as if they were
the real thing
Training
59. Go beyond what a 2D rendering can do by working in 3D.
Visualize your work
60. See holograms from your colleague’s prospective even if she’s on the other side of the
word.
