MICROSOFT HOLOLENS
HoloLens and Stryker ’ s ByDesign solution : “ A design can be created and adjusted without the need of a complicated mock operating room setup . Teams of surgeons can collaborate in a conference room , office , or work with holograms , at full size and scale , in the actual operating room – no bulky equipment required , just a headset . This allows teams to move quickly from envisioning to execution , improving the operating room for surgeons , staff , and ultimately the patients they care for .” Such developments will therefore enable individuals to visualise a finished product with ease .
Microsoft continue to transform how the construction industry will collaborate and communicate , supporting designers and architects and produce world-class results . It will be interesting to see how the technology will continue to inspire developers and technology giants to utilise mixed-reality technology and how it will support a multitude of industries going forward , providing quality results for customers .
