Windows 10: Microsoft gets serious on upgrades

Windows Holographic provides a fully immersive 3D experience using 3D glasses called HoloLens. Unlike Google, which dropped its Google Glass augmented reality project recently, HoloLens is a full-blown PC that presents a 3D overlay.

Microsoft said the device has a CPU, a GPU and an HPU, a holographic processing unit invented by the company. The HPU spatially maps the world around people, while processing terabytes of data in real time wirelessly.
