Microsoft HoloLens 2 augmented reality headset

The Microsoft HoloLens 2 is an augmented reality headset. Augmented reality can be translated as 'enhanced reality'. And that is exactly what this headset does: it enhances reality by adding an extra virtual layer to the real world. An augmented reality headset, such as the Microsoft HoloLens 2, is different from a virtual reality (VR) headset. With a VR headset, you are completely cut off from the real world and find yourself in a 100 percent computer-generated virtual environment. With the Microsoft HoloLens 2, the real world is still visible through the headset. Thanks to AR technology, various virtual elements can be added to this world. Elements that, for example, contribute to work efficiency or provide instructions and guidance. Augmented reality adds a kind of extra virtual layer over the real world. In this way, the real world and the digital world can enhance and enrich each other.

Unparalleled and lifelike AR experience

With two LBS-schermen with Waveguides, a resolution of 1440 by 936 pixels, and a field of view of 52 degrees, the Microsoft HoloLens 2 offers an AR experience like never before. Virtual elements, such as holograms and information, are seamlessly integrated with the real world. The headset is equipped with inside-out tracking technology. Together with the Windows Mixed Reality platform, this technology ensures that the HoloLens 2 can be used without cables. This contributes to optimal flexibility and mobility. The Microsoft HoloLens 2 can therefore be worn and used anywhere. To handle the most demanding AR applications, the AR headset is equipped with a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 850 processor. Additionally, the headset features a substantial 64 GB of memory and a large 16500 mAh battery with enough power for a usage time of 2 to 3 hours. Thanks to USB-C quick charge, the headset is quickly recharged.

Applications of the Microsoft HoloLens 2

With the Microsoft HoloLens 2, you can optimise work processes and increase efficiency. For example, consider displaying information and instructions in real-time at the workplace. Because the information appears in the user's field of view, you can quickly and easily perform complex tasks without having to look at another device. This can be particularly useful for order picking or performing repairs.

Moreover, the Microsoft HoloLens 2 can be used for remote support, providing assistance with technical problems or repairs from a distance. You can also capture moments with the 8 MP camera and 30fps video-opname function and share them later with colleagues or customers. The Microsoft HoloLens 2 can thus make a valuable contribution to business processes in various ways.
