In October 2015, Microsoft made a public appearance of Hololens holographic glasses in its keynote speech, and demonstrated a dreamy operation of Hololens on the spot. Through holographic projection, Hololens made the virtual interface seamlessly mixed with reality, which is like the future world in science fiction movies. At present, Love to play computer games We also got this dreamy Hololens holographic glasses for evaluation. Before evaluation, let's take a look at its true appearance.

From left to right, head bandage (glue material), remote control, user manual, nose rest

Hololens uses a large storage box as the packaging, which is a bit like the enlarged version of high-end headphone storage box. Open the storage box through the zipper, and you can see a Hololens body, a user manual, two nose holders of different lengths, a head strap, a remote control, and a power adapter.

Hollens is more like a helmet than a pair of glasses. Its overall weight reaches 579g. It can effectively use the nose rest and head ring to disperse the pressure of Hollens. It is neither light nor bulky after being put on. We The head is fixed by two rings, and the rear part of the head is provided with a screw button for adjusting the size of the tightening.

The red one is Hollens' ear mounted loudspeaker

The volume button on the right of Hololens is convex and concave

There are two brightness buttons on the left and two volume buttons on the right of the ring. It is worth noting that both volume buttons and brightness buttons are set to be convex and concave. The convex button is volume/brightness+button, and the concave button is - button, which can be seen from its industrial design.

As Hololens adopts a ring design, its function keys are all located on the ring, and the keys are placed in inconspicuous positions, perhaps for aesthetic reasons. The red part is its loudspeaker, which is placed near the ear of the ring. When using it, due to the smart and reasonable design, it has a sense of hearing similar to earplugs. The sound you hear is very loud, while the sound outside is very small.

Micro USB charging port and 3.55mm headphone interface are located on the back of Hololens. The power button of Hololens is next to Micro USB.

On the left and right are environment sensing cameras

Holoens adopts complex sensors. It is equipped with four environment understanding cameras, one depth of field camera, one 2 megapixel high-definition camera, one ambient light sensor, four microphones, one inertial sensing unit and one hybrid reality controller.

Optically, Holoens is equipped with two high-definition optical engine (16:9) lenses, perspective holographic lenses, and automatic calibration of pupil distance. It should be emphasized here that the so-called high-definition optical engine lens is the two display lenses of Hollens, each of which is composed of three red, green and blue lenses, and adopts the diffraction HUD mode. It shows that there is a dimming protective lens with a thickness of about 3mm at the periphery of the lens.

Holoens' somatosensory remote control

Hololens is equipped with a small somatosensory remote control with a single button, which can replace the "click" function in the operation process, or can be used as a magic function key in the game with game applications.

In terms of appearance, Microsoft Hololens' sense of technology and industrial design can hardly find rivals in the VR/AR/MR world. The ring shaped helmet fixed design, peripheral lenses and five cameras in front of it make people feel arrogant after wearing them. Of course, the functionality of Microsoft Hololens holographic glasses itself brings a sense of technology that is far more shocking than its appearance. Iooko has started its relevant evaluation content. Interested partners can follow our subsequent evaluation of Hololens.
