[Video] Science fiction movie sense! HoloLens MR glasses application case!
Microsoft's HoloLens, once seen as a promising step toward the future of mixed reality (MR), has faced an unexpected turn. The device, considered one of the most advanced MR headsets on the market, was launched in China in May this year with a starting price of 23,488 yuan. However, just three months later, rumors began to circulate that production had been halted. According to reports from Himax, a major supplier of HoloLens components based in Taiwan, the decline in shipments of LCOS and WLO optical components pointed to a decision by a key customer—widely believed to be Microsoft—to stop production. Despite this, Microsoft has not officially confirmed or denied the news, leaving much speculation among analysts and users.
In response to the rumors, Microsoft’s spokesperson emphasized the company’s long-term vision for mixed reality, stating: “Microsoft firmly believes that mixed reality is the future of computing. HoloLens not only represents the most sophisticated technology in mixed reality, but also reflects its future direction.†While the statement reaffirms their commitment, it also leaves room for uncertainty, suggesting that the company is keeping its plans under wraps.
HoloLens has followed a similar path to many high-end VR and AR devices—technologically advanced, but expensive and with unclear mainstream applications. However, its focus on commercial and enterprise use cases gives it a more defined market position. In industries such as automotive, healthcare, and military training, HoloLens has found real-world value.
One notable example is Volvo, which has been using HoloLens since 2016 for both product development and sales. The company provided 15 HoloLens units to developers in Gothenburg, Sweden, allowing them to streamline the design process of new car models. Additionally, Volvo has used HoloLens to visualize car safety features and offer customers immersive customization experiences across Europe, Russia, and China. The application allows users to explore a car’s internal structure and performance in a way that feels like a science fiction experience, combining interactive elements of mixed reality with real-world visuals.
Another compelling use case comes from the medical field. Brazilian orthopedic surgeon Henrique Lampert, along with Dr. Bruno Gobbato, has used HoloLens to assist in spinal surgeries. By overlaying 3D models of patients’ spines, the system helps surgeons place pedicle screws more accurately, reducing the risk of complications. The tool is not only more cost-effective than traditional CT scans during surgery but also provides real-time visual guidance that enhances precision.
The U.S. Marines have also adopted HoloLens for tactical training. Through a program called "Tactical Decision Kits," the Marine Corps is using HoloLens to create mixed reality simulations that help soldiers improve their decision-making skills. These tools include interactive games, virtual terrain modeling, and real-time scenario-based training, all designed to enhance adaptability and critical thinking in dynamic environments.
While HoloLens may not have achieved mass consumer adoption, its impact on specialized fields is undeniable. As Kipman, the creator of HoloLens, once said, “Smartphone technology has reached its limit and will be replaced by other forms of smart devices.†Though the future of VR, AR, and MR remains uncertain, one thing is clear: these technologies are reshaping how we work, learn, and interact with the world around us. Whether HoloLens will continue to lead the charge or be replaced by something even more advanced, only time will tell. For now, it remains a powerful example of how mixed reality can bridge the gap between the digital and physical worlds.
