Looks cool in demos. Hololens or PS4VR?

HoloLens is a misleading scam and vaporware
Of course it looks cool in demos.
Do you think the CGI in movies is real too?
Fucking idiot.
It's science fiction, like how companies in the 60s would show demos of flying cars.
>>51684197
Yet another device to blur and prohibit our sight of reality.

How is it a scam?

Why would microsoft lie to us?

They make it seem like it fills your entire fov rather than a small rectangular area in the center

Why did microsoft lie to us like that?

They're demonstrating a concept.
That's all.
Practical prototypes are huge things. You wear a backpack, the visor is a helmet, and the entire thing is strapped to the ceiling with wires and cables, and you move around this gigantic rig and see a small rectangle of minecraft blocks shakily hovering over a table.
This shit will be possible one day, there's no real reason why it can't be, but it's fantasy for this decade.
the future is here

Why does dev-level VR/AR look so cyberpunk?
>>51685371
Because it is the most cyberpunk thing we have atm
>>51686298
Isn't government and corporate data collection the most cyberpunk thing we have though? VR/AR is mostly visual, but it doesn't really address the themes.
Field of view is too small.
>>51686544
Yeah, you're right.
Can I correct it in "It's the most cyberpunk thing we have on individual scale"?
The field of view is fine on the full size prototype but when they tried to make it into something you could actually wear without strapping a computer to your back, they had to reduce the field of vision down. The basic idea is fine, it's just the computing power required can't fit into a head mounted device yet. Another two or three years of work on it while the industry marches forward on mobile processors should get it to where the backpack version is now.
the image is transparent so sucks if not viewed against a blank wall. especially for reading text.
