Pokémon Go demo with a Microsoft HoloLens : AR,VR and mixed reality
It was only a matter of time before someone took the game's augmented reality features and evolved them, as it were, with VR and mixed reality. And CapitolaVR has done just that, creating a Pokémon Go-esque demo with a Microsoft HoloLens.
The HoloLens Pokémon game is just a concept at this point,YouTube video showing us what future versions of the game could look like when users stop staring at their phones and start wearing high-tech goggles as they chase down Pikachu and Charmander.
Augmented reality (AR) meets mixed reality (MR) and Virtual reality (VR)
Behold, the gesture-based, Poké ball-throwing future:
Polygon points out, development of Pokémon Go HoloLens edition won't go much further than this demo, since recreating the interface has apparently proved challenging. Also, a spokesman from CapitolaVR told UploadVR that the company doesn't currently have any plants to work with Niantic Labs on a HoloLens version at this point.
