Microsoft's HoloLens 2 has already opened its presale - Ultimate Guide

A great novelty at the Mobile World Congress 2019 in Barcelona was the presentation of Microsoft's HoloLens 2, which, after several years of having left the original HoloLens, finally the company presents its new glasses that have been cataloged by its creators with a capacity of "mixed reality".

Although Microsoft initially ventured into the world of augmented reality in 2015 when it launched the first generation of this device with a high price and for a professional market, because now it is not so different, since it follows this path and everything seems to indicate that the headphones MR are much more expensive than the VR technology that is on the market and can be purchased for domestic use.

This second generation of Microsoft glasses continues to be aimed at buyers of the professional market for military or companies, so it is normal that the HoloLens 2 has a price of $ 3,500 (around £ 2,700 or AU $ 4,900). And the pre-order of this device will be available from next Sunday so that the glasses will be delivered later in the year.

However, Microsoft does not hesitate to bring an innovative technology in the AR universe, presenting some amazing improvements in hardware issues, such as the new Kinect Azure sensor that allows the visual tour of the user to be captured in a better way.

Even the CEO of the company, Satya Nadella when presenting the new product at the MWC in Barcelona said: "Computing is integrated into our world, in all places and in all senses," adding that: "It is no longer if the device is first, it is about putting the human being first, and includes all the devices in their lives ".

HoloLens 2 incorporates Iris recognition to recognize the user, although its most notable advance is that it has a resolution of 2K. On the other hand, it is a device capable of interacting with the virtual environment without the user having to use external sensors, with the simple touch of a button or something else, the glasses will identify movement and action directly.

As Nadella said, the results that Microsoft has obtained with this innovative technology do not need to be simply imagined, because as he added: "That future is here".

The Microsoft technician who runs the HoloLens project, Alex Kipman says that the company's goal with these innovations is that the lives of humans are transformed, as if in reality you had superpowers thanks to technology.
