MICROSOFT HOLOLENS 2 - Aliens Are Invading My Office! - See What The Best AR Headset Can Do Already!

[@VirtualAirTour]

Not sure why people always pits AR vs VR like it’s some sort of competition. Eventually a single device will accomplish both and the markets will merge.

[@nicktheg00]

People are woefully illiterate and don’t understand the tech, that’s why.

[@steve_ire321]

Exactly this. VR headsets already are capable, but limited by resolution and FOV.

[@milannesic5718]

If you think about AR through cameras, then, no thanks. That will be horrible in comparison. You don't see your body, arms, legs, you have terribly restricted FOV, and you are looking at a digital world image, instead of the real one

[@nicktheg00]

Milan Nesic No that’s not what we’re talking about. See through Hololens style AR that can instantaneously convert to full VR is what I mean, in a regular pair of glasses/eventually some sort of AR/VR contact lens hybrid solution that’s able to do both augmented and full virtual reality that encompasses your entire peripheral vision, with the ability to switch between either one at a whim.

[@bronks1200]

A combo of the AR and VR would be great imagine a door appears in your living room as AR, you open it and walk right into the VR game world.

[@zergslayer69]

That would be amazing. Maybe in 10 years?

[@bronks1200]

One of my favorite things about AR is the potential to learn things on the fly. For example: I'm not a car guy but it would be awesome to have instructions come up in front of my eyes if I wanted to try and replace a part myself. Way better than going back and forth between KZbin videos. There's just so much potential. Also, I heard that they were making alterations so that it can take the temperatures of soldiers pretty much instantly using infrared laser or something like that. So much potential.

[@bravojr]

No, Ar is going to interface with Vr. Ar is what you take when you want a integrated experience. VR is what you want when you are going for a isolated experience.

[@robertweekes5783]

There will surely be a lot of overlap, and games that can be played in both AR and VR. But the best apps will focus on one over the other.

[@DrLilo]

I never understood why I'd want to fight aliens and monsters in my boring ass bedroom, when VR lets me fight them in whatever incredible locations can be imagined...

[@ahmedp800]

Impressive! However, there is a lot of lag and slowdowns, they've got to switch to a more powerful CPU/GPU. Other than that, It is quite impressive honestly.

[@batsugun2021]

Looks cool. I can see it will help those who suffer from motion sickness to be able to see their surroundings. But I think AR will be mostly for education and work applications. I still prefer the full Emerson of VR. VR will remain the best option for gaming and creating fully immersive worlds. AR will probably be more prevalent because of its real world applications.

[@mikejh6551]

Yes, it's a novelty, and when that wear off, it will be back to VR.

[@janimusic8957]

Is the low frame rate due to recording or is it the same when using the headset?

[@jesperingels]

Definitely due to the recording. I've done some development with the HoloLens 1st gen. All the computing happens in the headset itself, rendering these 3D objects and also live-streaming the output to a pc takes a lot of power. Without recording everything is super smooth I can assure you

[@andrewmatheson238]

Will they ever make this for regular consumers??

[@JNSStudios]

I’m assuming they will once there are enough things on there for consumers to use, and when the technology becomes cheap enough. It’s still mostly for corporations at the moment.

[@liowik]

The tech is great. The only downside is when trying to emulate REALITY there was the failure to record the sound of an ACTUAL cat. I know it's really hard to come across a real cat, or use any of the countless videos of them on youtube. That lapse was jarring within the experience. And for the demo they really could have used a MUCH more realistic looking cat, no? I mean look at what unreal 5 is doing and then look at that cat. Is this a joke? For $3500, perhaps they could at least have a $3 cat.

No offense, but you're really stupid if you're comparing your iPad's AR to this. You can't directly interact with holograms on your iPad or feel as immersed as this makes you. If you're trying to sound smart, you're just showing everyone what an idiot you are.
