MICROSOFT is the real GIANT and I could not help myself but write on this very impressive new ‘geek’ in the tech-market. Windows 10 has been in the limelight since it was spoken of or maybe before that. Gates you are one smart and genius man to have halted the idea of getting Windows 9 to the market. It surely would have not achieved much of accolades. So yeah turning back to where I was- Windows 10 and the HoloLens (yeah you write it that way). Since childhood, I have always been fascinated by 3D structures and Mr. Bill finally got my prayers answered. Check out the first look here in my exclusive report of the HoloLens.

It was Wednesday, the preview day of Windows 10. Building 92 of Microsoft’s Redmond campus was flooded with a group of hacks sent to try the new HoloLens. Conventionally with their cams and gadgets stripped, they began their journey towards the new tech this "software giant" has to bless us with. The 'hologramatic’ wearable ‘fits over your eyes and projects 3D vision right in front of you. But before, it pops up with a rectangular box that for a brief period showcases the proud logo of Microsoft. A bunch of obsessive people for whom this is not just any lens but a meaningful part of their life have dedicated a lot into making this come alive. Once a science fiction, this had broken all the barriers between technology and humans. Smacking against laws of physics and what can actually be done with light is yet another dimension explored by the humans and no wonder we have crossed all the walls to make this happen. A group of people who dedicated their blood and souls into this would have never imagined that something of this sort of could be achieved with light.
This is one medium of artistic expression and a medium that we never had before. What if you could just actually go beyond the screen of the computer and explore just never ending possibilities. The oculus Rift by Facebook had some major flaws which are effectively eliminated in Microsoft’s HoloLens. Firstly, you do not have to be blind after wearing this. It is easy to walk and stroll around wearing this. Secondly, no accessories like power gloves or any sort of rings. It is all controlled by your hands, voice and eyes. The cursor moves while your eyes move. The cursor will focus in the direction of your eyeballs so it is rather convenient. If you wish to ‘click’ the onscreen controls, just clench your fist right in front of your face and raise a finger and then move it back and down. Voice commands are yet again integrated. HoloLens are the next era of computing and with Microsoft projecting its high-end skills into this arena it is surely going to bring more accolades in the coming years and change the way people have been perceiving the technology. Limitations will see no boundary anymore. Learn more about the Hologramatic wear here.
