Microsoft Adds More Firepower To Its HoloLens Team

[HardOCP News]

Microsoft is adding a bunch of new people to its HoloLens team. Some of the new members come from inside Microsoft, while others are coming from the University of Southern California and have mentored the likes of Palmer Luckey.

Shotton has been leading the Machine Intelligence and Perception group at Microsoft Research Cambridge, according to his MSR biography. His research has been focused "at the intersection of computer vision, AI, machine learning and graphics, with particular emphasis on systems that allow people to interact naturally with computers".

If the consumer version ends up (maybe 2nd gen?) with a bigger FoV and a much faster processor... this will be a hit. The dev. version is amazing in itself.

I heard that thing was migraine inducing.

Really like the concept of hololens. I just hope they can make the FoV better.

It is cool tech. They need to make sure it is complete and polished before they ship the consumer version.
