News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Google glass is a remote display on ur eyes. Meaning a screen attached to your glasses.

They are entirely different.

Hololens is an entirely new beast.

Comparing them because both can play youtube is every journalist's mistake and uneducated journalists created that mistake.

Hololens can not be used outside in a bright day light.

Hololens can be used any where. WiFI is not needed all time for Hololens. WiFi is needed only for the APPs which needs them as in some APPs in phones. You can connect the Hololens to wifi(hotspot) in any smartphone.

Oh! After this much education, u have bias. The only MR working gadget, Hololens is from MS. Did you try them? They are ahead of every one.

You are the first one to say it has "3D mapping issues". I can send you links with experts saying Hololens is the holy grail of 3D mapping and tracking.

Theranos which had huge investments turned out be mmm a sad story. Big money from big companies does not mean it is true. They also fell for the hype.

Rony Abovitz must be a great salesman.

It is used by NASA and they are stupid as per your post.

Where did you see the "rigged demos"? It works as shown in the demos if you even understand what it can do and do not. Your 20 minutes on hand demo never shows/teaches you any thing.

It is so sad to see Evan B saying Marketing phrases trying to protect his investments.

Did u even use Hololens? Hololens is the best AR with best Tracking and mapping.

Comparing AR device with VR device itself is not correct. Every one in VR world knows HTC Vive has far superior experience than Rift.
