Samsung, Microsoft working together on new HoloLens AR project
Samsung Electronics has started working on an augmented reality (AR) HoloLens project with Microsoft with HoloLens. HoloLens is a mixed reality smartglasses developed by Microsoft for companies and various industries and may be related to the hardware involved in Samsung.
Microsoft unveiled its first-generation developer edition hybrid-reality HoloLens head-mounted display in 2016, and the company adopted the more sophisticated HoloLens 2 model in late 2019 (via-TheElec). In short, HoloLens allows wearers to insert augmented reality (virtual) objects.
It is designed to increase productivity using augmented and mixed reality technologies and currently, Microsoft offers three HoloLens 2 models for a variety of enterprise and industrial use cases.
The project is reported to have multiple divisions such as Samsung Display, Electro-Mechanics and SDI. While the exact role of Samsung in this partnership with Microsoft is unclear, sources speculate that the company may be the hardware supplier for a number of components needed for augmented and mixed reality head-mounted devices.
Sources now speculate that the same waveguide technology may play a role in the development of HoloLens with Samsung’s involvement in the project. The co-owned project will run until 2023. Though, the first commercial product from this Samsung-Microsoft partnership will not be shown to the public until 2024.
Does this partnership have anything to do with what is called Samsung Galaxy Lite smartglasses are a must-see, but they also promise augmented and mixed reality capabilities like HoloLens? Samsung’s latest use of augmented reality technology launched the Samsung 837 at DreamGround in Hollywood Park and last week in New York City.
