Microsoft’s Vision for Mixed Reality in the Modern Workplace
summary
Microsoft lays out concrete claims and products not abstractions: HoloLens ships and Microsoft targets 80% first line workers — “over two billion” people — with five scenarios across six industries. Two apps are live in public preview as part of em 365: Microsoft Remote Assist (hands‑free video, expert views, live annotations to avoid travel) and Microsoft Layout (place 3D holograms to iterate space planning). Customer pilots at ZF and aerospace show faster troubleshooting, fewer trips, and quicker decisions.
