Microsoft HoloLens Technology and its Use

Abstract

Microsoft HoloLens takes the physical space around the user into the device. Virtual objects are added to the captured information. Users feel as if reality and virtual have been mixed through this experience. The HoloLens is a typical stand-alone HMD PC, but HoloLens have HPU and HD display. The major feature of the HoloLens is that the hologram can be performed with high accuracy. This is achieved by SLAM to generate the surrounding 3D map and estimate the self-position. Holograms can be pinned anywhere, and this mechanism can be used to share the same hologram among multiple users. HoloLens is expected to be utilized in many fields. Especially, it is used as a tool to support for first-line workers. HoloLens will be evolved this year and will enhance the synergy effect while making use of each characteristic in cooperation with the Cloud, and to expand not only BtoB but also BtoBtoC.
