So much going on in the VR world in the first quarter of 2020!
Microsoft announced that it will be hosting two Mixed Reality Dev Days in Redmond, Washington May 16 and 17, in addition to some international dev days held in Japan and Germany at some point during the year.
Mixed Reality is the term used by Microsoft to cover everything from the HoloLens 2 AR headset to their PC VR headsets that are produced in conjunction with third-party partners like HP or Samsung. At the Dev Days events, there will likely be an opportunity for developers to get hands-on with hardware like the HoloLens, while also providing Microsoft with feedback on their experience developing for Mixed Reality platforms.
As we ramp up the new year for VR, I'm hoping to see Microsoft play a stronger role in PCVR. They have dabbled with their Oculus partnership for some time, but haven't gone as far as I'd like to see. I'll be paying close attention to the upcoming conference.
