HoloLens is maybe the best AR glass on the market nowadays and I had the pleasure to try it some months ago and to write an enthusiastic review about it. I was delighted by its capabilities, potentials and the incredible spatial positioning of its “holograms” (hate this term, since they’re not holograms, just virtual objects […]
We all know the problems that Oculus is having with its room-scale tracking and the fact that its just released update (the 1.11) is not helping that much.
