Apple’s iWatch has got mixed reviews. There are some, mostly Apple fans, who have gone gaga over the gadget and there are many experts who have completely lambasted the device. There will always be some who would love a certain gadget and some who wouldn’t. Unanimity is impossible to achieve in a diverse and opinionated world, especially when there are so many options. Consensus too is difficult to attain.
Wearable computer or gadget isn’t anything new. If iWatch has failed to impress everyone, then Google Glasses are yet to even roll out. But look at some wearable fitness gadgets and performance trackers and you can imagine the potential they have. Many of such gears have been runaway hits. Moving back into the space of computers, we have Holo 2.0, the ambitious leap in the world of wearable computer.
Holo, which can now be called Holo 1.0, had received substantial positive reviews and it was certainly a sleek development in a niche that is often bent towards bulk. Unlike smart phones and tablets, wearable tech is not always slim. It is quite clunky at times. But look at Holo 2.0 and that perception of yours will change.
Holo 2.0 is a fashionable device. It isn’t just wearable but it can convert kinetic energy which is by the virtue of your body movements and that can be the source of power for the device and this portable powerhouse can provide connectivity and compatibility anywhere and at anytime. Holo 2.0 uses holographic display to make any place your workstation. You can connect to the web from anywhere and you may not even run out of juice if you are on the move.
The holographic display can be used with the sleeker wearable strip or wristband or you can use it as a desktop by using the docking feature. The device has a docking station that can enable a much larger display so you can work on more complex and elaborate stuff. Smaller displays only work for minor tasks or when you don’t need a broad canvas.
Holo 2.0 is sleeker than a laptop but works just as one, that too a state of the art laptop. Holo 2.0 is about 140 mm in length, 20 mm in width, 2.5 mm in minimum thickness and 10 mm in maximum thickness.
Holo 2.0 has been designed by Elodie Delassus, Pradeep Kamath, Rucha Shinde, Taha Poonawala and Asher Kandelar.
