HoloLens video demonstrates Windows 10’s augmented reality user interface

Microsoft’s HoloLens augmented reality device seems too futuristic to exist, but everything we’ve seen makes it look like it works as advertised.

A new video meant for developers (via WinBeta) is giving us our first decent look at the HoloLens user interface in action. The tutorial shows the modified Windows 10 operating system floating in the air thanks to the “hologram” technology that mixes digital images with the physical world. This illustrates how the AR head-mounted display uses pinching, swiping, and “air tapping” gestures for navigation.
