Microsoft just recently gave people a better look at the Hololens, and it seems like it could change the way we all work. This recent demonstration of the holographic design gave everyone a closer look as how it can collaborate with programs to make designers work more efficiently on their projects.
The Hololens can work with the Autodesk Maya 3D software, an animation software for graphic arts. The crazy part is that since it is holographic, the model you are currently working on is physically presented in front of you. Meaning, everyone can see your model as you work on it. The model also changes as you alter it using your mouse and keyboard. The even crazier part is that you can also use it on real objects so you'd know how your actual product will look like. In their demo, they used a motorcycle and changed its color several times.
But the most useful effect the Hololens brings to the workplace is that, when a coworker comments on your project, the Hololens can show the exact part of the model that was referred to by your coworker. In their website, you can also see a short demo that shows how you could use Hololens at home.
It is probably the most high-technology that has ever been demonstrated for the past decades. It intelligently does everything you need to do when it comes to model demos you may need in your workplace. This holographic device is probably useful in everything. All industries will benefit from the purpose it brings. Real estate, advertising, and manufacturing companies are just few of the many businesses that can benefit from this technology.
However, it is not yet clear as to how much the Hololens will cost. The date of the launch was also not stated. However, it will probably be released within the season of the Windows 10.
