OMG LOL YES.

[Captian Blubberman]

now people can finally forget their waifus

also is their even a price on this yet? I bet it'll be around 500-1000 USD when it comes out.

[Tudoreleu]

yeah if it does come out and it's good no one will be able to afford it

it's probably only gonna be affordable by 2020 at the earliest

[Frostbyte]

HOLY stuff YES.

it probably would not be so good at love, considering this is just light and you wont feel anything. you could watch holographic research but i don't think it would be able to interact with you without it feeling weird/doing nothing

That video seems like a parody of something.

Regardless, unless Microsoft is leaps and bounds ahead of the rest of humanity, a lot of the stuff in that video isn't even possible, much less functional.

Why wouldn't it be possible? They aren't holograms, you're just wearing a VR box on your head fed through cameras. It's more like a workaround, not a solution.

[jarelash]

hehehe...holographic research...hehe

[Johnimiester]

This was a thing before HoloLens was.

Now you can look dumb flailing around in public!
(No, this is not an attack towards anyone in this thread.)

The idea sounds neat and all, but I would only ever use this at home alone, with the curtains drawn, because I'm pretty sure even passing pedestrians who see me in my house will laugh.

Here is something done very similarly, but with the Rift

At 11:48 he starts working with monitors, and you can see how Microsoft will execute the Television concept

Now we can pretend to be Tony Stark.

The concept is cool of course, but it LOOKS so stupid when worn on the head, lol

We just need an implanted version, or at least get it to the point where they just look like glasses
Those things just look awkward.
