Microsoft Hololens is a next-generation Augmented Reality console.

Summary

The Microsoft Hololens is a virtual reality headset and platform from Microsoft. It was initially known during development as "Project Baraboo". The device is a pair of mixed-reality head-mounted "smart glasses", able to display projected virtual reality images over actual reality. Development of the Hololens branched out from development of the Kinect, an add-on for the Microsoft Xbox 360, and later the Xbox One, that was introduced in 2010. The pre-production version, termed the Development Edition, was released on March 30th, 2016, at a list price of $3,000. As of February 2016, the consumer version has been delayed.
