Microsoft Hololens 2 is a pair of smart glasses for mixed reality experiences, developed and manufactured by Microsoft. It was announced on February 24, 2019 at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain. The headset improves the overall experience and expands the field of view over its predecessor, Microsoft Hololens. The new design is lighter (566 g) and gives greater comfort for the user by placing the battery at the back of the head. Four visible light cameras are used for head tracking and two IR cameras for eye tracking. Hand gestures and the exact finger’s positions are tracked as well, enabling users to grab, move and scale objects in a natural way. Six-degree of freedom (6DoF) world-scale positional tracking and spatial mapping via real-time environment mesh provide the understanding of the surroundings. It comes with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 850 Compute Platform, 4-GB LPDDR4x system DRAM and 64-GB UFS 2.1 of internal storage. The device includes Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connections. The see-through holographic lenses and the built-in spatial sound enhance the immersive mixed reality experience. Hololens 2 is specially aimed at business customers. Microsoft has demonstrated several applications across industries in industrial equipment maintenance, auto manufacturing, and medical procedures, among others. The battery lasts for up to three hours on a single charge.
