This is NOT the Next Hololens

Perhaps you have seen the following images floating around...








I just wanted to make it clear that although the media has picked up on a recent patent filing, these images are also from a patent that originated from 2010 from Osterhout Group Inc, which Microsoft bought a suite of patents from back in 2015. Yes, these images were probably originally drafted up close to a decade ago. As sleek as they look for a mixed reality headset, notice the lack of Kinect for Azure, which has been confirmed by Microsoft to be a part of the next HoloLens.

Anyway, it shouldn't be too long before we see the real thing, as the next HoloLens is supposedly set to debut to the public eye on February 24th at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
