Microsoft HoloLens will reportedly arrive 'within the next year'

Microsoft’s virtual reality headset HoloLens will be out ‘within next year’ stated the company CEO Satya Nadella during a video interview this week. Microsoft will reportedly release ‘V1’ which will be focused ‘more around developers and enterprises’. According to the video interview with BBC, Microsoft’s HoloLens will be shipped to developers sometime during 2016. Nadella noted that the HoloLens is on a ‘five year journey’ in which it will be initially be released for developers. After that, it will be released for business users, before it becomes a consumer device. Interestingly, Nadella went on to say that, “We are looking forward to getting a V1 out which is more around developers and enterprises. It’s in the Windows 10 timeframe which means that it is within the next year.” At the moment, Microsoft CEO states that the device will support more commercial use cases as the product continues to evolve over the coming years. **Reportedly** , the Windows HoloLens is similar to an augmented reality experience (the kind many apps on smartphones aim to give) except that this is much more advanced, because users can wear a headset, like Virtual Reality goggles,  to experience holograms in real life. According to the company, HoloLens brings high-definition holograms in your world, where they integrate with your physical places, spaces, and things. Microsoft says these holograms will transform your digital content (say a picture, graph or a game you’ve been playing) into real, physical objects in the room which you can physically interact with.
