Re: Microsoft HoloLens
Concept is great but let's see if they can pull it off.

Re: Microsoft HoloLens
Magic leap will be something similar. They've been filing patents as well. Surely MS would have been doing the same?

There was a number of interesting things mentioned.
Though Cursed might be more excited about the PC in a mouse.

I have a joke for you. I have a prediction that you are going to walk into a bar, my prediction was wrong and your wallet is gone.

Re: Microsoft HoloLens/VR
Microsoft have announced partnership with HP, Dell, Lenovo, Asus, and Acer to produce VR headsets priced from $300 and up. Also sounds like they're adding VR capabilities to Windows 10 which should be interesting.
Sounds like they'll use the inside out tracking developed for hololens. While that will make the overall system cheaper it also means no tracked controllers. Could become a cheaper alternative for simracing.

No meaningful specs yet.
