#MICROSOFT WIRELESS MOUSE 3500 COVER FULL#
Microsoft has decided to rent the Hololens without clients making the full investment. As of May 2017, The Suite sold for US$5,000. There is also a Commercial Suite (similar to a pro edition of Windows), with enterprise features, such as BitLocker security. On October 12, 2016, Microsoft announced global expansion of HoloLens and publicized that HoloLens would be available for preorder in Australia, Ireland, France, Germany, New Zealand and the United Kingdom. Samsung and Asus have extended an offer to Microsoft to help produce their own mixed-reality products, in collaboration with Microsoft, based around the concept and hardware on HoloLens. The pre-production version of HoloLens, the Development Edition, shipped on March 30, 2016, and is targeted to developers in the United States and Canada for a list price of $3000 which allowed hobbyist, professionals, and corporations to participate in the pre-production version of HoloLens. The tracking technology used in HoloLens can trace its lineage to Kinect, an add-on for Microsoft's Xbox game console that was introduced in 2010. HoloLens was the first head-mounted display running the Windows Mixed Reality platform under the Windows 10 computer operating system. Microsoft HoloLens, known under development as Project Baraboo, are a pair of mixed reality smartglasses developed and manufactured by Microsoft.
