When HoloLens was first announced I was impressed like many of us. My view was maybe a little different than most though. My first thought was “man the TV manufacturers were going to go out of business.” I could create a virtual TV as big as I wanted to and as many as I wanted, anywhere I wanted, sign me up. However, as we know now the FOV and price point put a stop to that thought. Fast forward to now. Microsoft is offering that same HoloLens experience in a 300 dollar VR headset using my existing computer/laptop. Oh yes we are getting somewhere. So now for the price of a small screen TV I can have a virtual 90 inch mondo TV. Not only that I can have multiple 90 inch TV’s. Football may never be the same again. I can have those hologram images shown in that NFL HoloLens video on a virtual room with none of the FOV problems of HoloLens. I certainly hope this is where they are going, because if it is I am all in. Screw the VR games, I am good with watching football on my TV while streaming an Xbox One game on another TV, while streaming a Steam game on another, with a hologram replay on the streets of a Paris café. Sorry wife and kids, daddy has got to play.
