The computer is completely wireless and runs on Windows 10 software.The HoloLens will use augmented reality and virtual reality to bring images to life. Users will be able to interact with 3-D images of screens, maps and videogames. Users will be able to perform basic phone functions, watch TV and design and create objects — such as spaceships — and 3-D print them.

Microsoft's hologram labs will also develop and release a holographic Skype and holographic Minecraft in the future.

Another device announcement was the new Surface Hub, which is an 84-inch 4K display that is aimed to help workplaces have more efficient meetings and conferences. The display works like a smart whiteboard with camera, speakers and Wi-Fi. Users will be able to write on the display, share screens and video clips and participate in a conference call at the same time.

The HoloLens will eventually be support holographic versions of Skype and Minecraft. Joe Belfiore, Microsoft's corporate vice president, also gave a first look at the new features that Windows 10 will have on phones, which include a new and improved Cortana — Microsoft's version of Siri — and a new user interface.

It was also announced that anyone with Windows 7 or 8.1 will be able to upgrade to Windows 10 for free within the first year of launch.

Microsoft has not announced a release date for its new software or devices, but it will be releasing the new Windows 10 builds to insiders in the next couple months. The consumer version will be released sometime later this year.
