Microsoft releases a new iteration of the HoloLens, the company's mixed-reality headset effort. The HoloLens works with mirrors and lasers to project images onto the visor. As a result, users see a virtual layer over the actual environment. Available for preorder now and shipping later this year, the $3,500 sequel improves upon its 2016 predecessor with 2K displays offering a 52-degree FOV, eye-tracking sensors, and better comfort. It also features superior battery life, having switched out Intel's Cherry Trail parts for an ARM-based Qualcomm Snapdragon 850.
