    That was in iron man movies. In other words; they already had it back then.

    this is the future? feels like the atari 1600 of supercomputers. just plain unimpressive.

    When these things can process user transactions in an erp or when you can code in VR space will be the next level. This looks like a fun gimmick right now.

    Reminds me of Tony stark fixing the Shield ship in the first Avengers movie.

    the talk about this thing years ago was certainly just hype… am not impressed by it at all.

    I wish they would have shown in real time what he was seeing for the entire video as watching someone move hands around doesn’t excite me to buy a product.

      It shows a bit of it if you keep watching.

      yeah, especially since like connecting this to a projector for a presentation or classroom would be a great use

    Great potential. Terrible job showing what it’s able to do.

    HoloLens 2 might be enterprise focused but we’ve got a pretty great solution for creatives and devs 🙂

    This has potential to be one of the greatest tools for theoretical physicists.

    Remember when the first iPhone came out and we thought pinching to zoom was THE MOST futuristic? This is one of those moments; in 15 years we’ll watch this while wearing AR glasses the size of a contact lens and laugh. As a side note this makes me excited for Apple’s headset 😉

    @Scott Stein and everybody else. Lets clear the air right now – nobody is going to plunk down $3500 out the gate. Businesses are going get the $125 month setup with the Remote Assist software. AND guess what, for businesses that is a great price for a tool when put with Microsoft’s Dynamics 365. I know because my research on D365 and the Mixed Reality suite, I have several dozen techs ready to plunk down their own money to be part of a beta testing group. Its laptop wrapped around your head – it can do what it needs to for businesses and more. Everybody need to stop WAVING there arms about $3500 and think like a business of the monthly cost amortized over 28 months and then think about what they spend on business Iphones or tablets
