Microsoft and Volkswagen to bring Augmented Reality into Cars
This will be carried out with Microsoft’s ‘HoloLens 2’
The duo has been experimenting with HoloLens 2 in moving vehicles for some time
Eventually, they have created a ‘moving platform’ model for the headset
The new system overcomes some of the major limitations of VR headsets
HoloLens 2 shows a virtual map with navigation arrows and information about key intersections on the dashboard
It also displays a holographic pedestrian warning at crosswalks
Moreover, the system informs the temperature inside the car
Microsoft and Volkswagen started collaborating in 2018
