New York, New York (31 August 2016) – The age of virtual reality is officially here and it is a race towards perfection. Consumers are now engaging with gameplay and simulations in ways once only thought possible in science fiction. Ushered in by the groundbreaking development of the Oculus Rift, the market now boasts a number of headsets including the HTC Vive, Sony PlayStation VR, and Samsung Gear VR, just to name a few. While the virtual reality competition was heating up, Microsoft was looking to enter the market from a more innovative angle.
Instead of transporting users to a virtual reality, the Microsoft HoloLens brings the magic to our world with interactive, high-definition holograms. This is referred to as augmented reality, which has recently been brought to the forefront by the recent worldwide Pokémon Go craze. As augmented reality picks up steam, manufacturers have begun to see the profitability. Microsoft, on the other hand, is already ahead of the game having just released the HoloLens to the general public.

Though excitement and demand for the Microsoft HoloLens is worldwide, the release is US exclusive, meaning the HoloLens is not available for purchase in Singapore at the moment.
