Instead, the headset's motion tracking and speech recognition could inform the movements of a rendered hologram of your choosing and send that to the other caller. We've already seen how a Kinect can make that happen, but you can't really hook one up to the HoloLens (nor would it be practical to do so). Microsoft may use holographic representations as a stand-in for your face in the future. Imagine you could never toggle back to the front-facing camera and you'll understand the dilemma with using HoloLens.ĭon't Miss: HoloLens Breathes New Life into Simple Things Like Watching TV You can hear them, and see what they see, but that's something most of us have experienced by toggling between front- and back-facing cameras on our phones.
You don't miss seeing another person's face when you're just video conferencing with yourself, but you might if you're actually talking to another person. You'd wear the HoloLens and use Skype to have a friend assist you in a task. For the most part, it worked rather well and about the same as it would between regular computers and smartphones.
