      Good morning,

      Do someone know if i can visualize 3D models with windows mixed reality headsets in augmented reality? Not in virtual reality like in oculus rift or in augmented reality on smartphones.

          Hi Robert,

          The Windows Mixed Reality headsets made by several manufacturers like Samsung and Acer is actually for VR only. IMO Microsoft is calling this Mixed Reality because they are using the same platform for Hololens as well. In other words, Microsoft Mixed Reality means these VR headsets and also the Hololens.

           

          So to answer your question, no these Mixed Reality headsets are actually for VR only. Hololens is for AR on the Windows platform.

           

          Thanks
