All Things 3D | Microsoft Mixed Reality Hologram Animation through the lens of the HP Mixed Reality Headset @allthings3d | Uploaded 7 years ago | Updated 2 hours ago
The latest MS Windows 10 Creative Insider build now allows lower performing graphics cards as well as the latest integrated graphics from Intel (620 & Iris 640) to perform (IMO) quite well as seen in this demo captured through the lens of the HP Mixed Reality headset. It should be noted that the optics are Fresnel based and contribute to the softness and aberrations, but frankly no worse than the Oculus Rift or HTC Vive other than the lens has diameter less than both (approximately 40mm) which is understandable since the actual LCD panels are only diagonally measured at 2.89", less than the 3.5" Oculus Rift CV or the 3.6" HTC Vive.
I have also noticed that there appear to be new Hologram animations, which again in my opinion are quite stunning and opens all kinds of possibilities for "Virtual Training" for a number of physical activities that work better when your motions are seen, even more important is with the Mixed Reality systems coming out, you can also walk around the trainer to see different views as well as move in to examine a motion in closer detail. Combined this with standard video controls for moving forward or reverse as well as pausing the motion; you have powerful tool in training especially if you combine this with the excellent inside/out (6-DOF) tracking, that when used in a mobile system like the one I created with an Intel NUC and Anton Bauer power pack (about 3 hours use) I am able to navigate the Mixed Reality Home without needing to teleport when used in a large open area. Which surprisingly can be an outdoor setting as I will demonstrate in an upcoming video.
