Magic Leap, Microsoft HoloLens, HTC Valvue Vive, and Samsung Virtual Reality

Immersive Education's "Buzz" page is filled with technologies that I believe will change and help the way our society interacts with others, both virtually and in person.

I found Magic Leap to be the most interesting technology out of them all. The software and hardware of Magic Leap is very advanced within the gaming industry. The use of your hands and touch is a very advanced technology to be able to use within a video game, so the capability that Magic Leap has over others is very impressive.

Microsoft HoloLens is a technology that essentially is a computer inside of a headset. You are able to not only hear and see, but actually interact with various environments. Some environments being a living room, community, house, building, etc. The high definition lenses of the Microsoft Hololens make for it to be a more advanced and cool technology as well that have the immersive experience.

The Samsung VR is another amazing virtual headset that I found very cool. This technology has many benefits for various people. It allows for a different type of experience than the rest of the gaming and virtual headsets. The Samsung VR allows for live feed. In one case, a father was able to watch his child be born through the headset because he could not physically be there. This goes to show that soldiers will be given more opportunities to virtually see their families and friends while overseas.
