Just hanging out in Soho Bike shop, just had a play around with a holographic VR headset that some hardware engineers/programmers are playing around with – it threw animated objects/people into various parts of the shop that you could seamlessly walk around and interact with, it was so close to feeling like there was actually a real object in front of you – but that you were just wearing a pair of slightly heavy sunglasses, utterly mad!

The next 10 years in tech development are going to be very, very exciting. I mean, we could implement something similar in DH goggles and try to follow our favourite riders down famous tracks etc and see their lines.

Totally nerded out here.

Which vendor was this from?

Think the hardware was a prototype microsoft thing, at least that’s what they seemed to be mumbling to me. 😀

Microsoft Hololens?

That would be the one!

It twas very cool, I’m looking forward to the day that I can defend my house from a zombie horde.

Up there with the “holy shit balls, I’m living in Star Trek” nerd feeling I got when I first saw an iPad.
