For the first time ever, Microsoft Hololens brings HD holograms into today’s world. These holograms integrate with the physical world around you. This next generation technology is enabled by Windows 10, and will have many holographic apps that can run on cell phones as well as PCs and Xbox One. With an inbuilt spatial sound, users will be able to locate holograms anywhere in the room.

There have been rumblings of the expected price of the device, and the $500 range seems to be where experts pinpoint the dollar amount. As expected, people have also been curious of the release date of this product. It’s been said the Hololens will be released around the same time as the full release of Windows 10, which is later this year. Even without concrete evidence of the Hololens’ release date and price, the device has attracted worldwide attention. Microsoft recently did a demonstration of the Hololens, going in depth into the Holostudio feature. You can find that video here, https://www.youtube.com/twatch?v=b6sL_5Wgvrg
