Unlike the [[Oculus Rift]] and other [[Virtual Reality#Devices|VR Devices]], the eye-piece component of HoloLens is transparent and the headset requires neither PC nor smartphone. It is able to project high-definition (HD) virtual content over real world objects using its see-through display.<ref name=”one”>Microsoft. Microsoft HoloLens.

==General Information==

Microsoft HoloLens runs a self-contained Windows 10 computer.  It features an HD 3D optical head-mounted display, spatial sound projection and advanced sensors to allow its users to interact with AR applications through head movements, [[#Gesture|gestures]] and [[#Voice|voices]]. Microsoft has said that “The key to a great holographic experience is holograms that are light point rich, i.e. have a high holographic density, and are pinned or anchored to the world around you. To achieve this, HoloLens has been designed for optimal holographic density of 2.5K radiants. The more radiants and light points there are, the brighter and richer the holograms become.” <ref name=”four”>Roberts, J. (2016). What is HoloLens? Microsoft’s holographic headset explained.
