Windows 10 update in 2017 will bring Holographic support for all PCs

In a video shared on the blog shows a user is seen wearing a tethered Holographic headset, that makes it look like she is in a virtual room, with virtual walls and a virtual dog. All the applications and browsers she has opened are suspended on virtual screens in front. She is able to access her email on a large virtual screen, through which she opens her calendar on another screen -while the virtual dog licks his paw in the background. The user is then able to access the ‘Holo Tour’, instantly transporting her to a 360 degree view of Pantheon, Rome. A voice assistant then helps give her details about the Pantheon on her virtual tour.

Microsoft is also developing the HoloLens – a mixed reality Holographic platform, which is a head-mounted smart-glass that is still under development. Hololens was recently made available to developers and commercial partners of Microsoft earlier this month. Each developer can purchase up to five devices from the Hololens website, priced at $3000 each.

In a recent Intel Developer Forum (IDF) in San Francisco, the company’s CEO, Brian Krzanich shared the tech company’s vision for the future of virtual reality. Krzanich also explained his vision of  merged reality, allowing for a new way of physical and virtual interactions with the environment. Intel highlighted its focus on merged reality – opening up new streams of physical and virtual interactions with the environment.
