That’s what Volkswagen discovered after looking at the usage of augmented reality glasses to teach drivers how to navigate a racetrack more quickly. It began working with Microsoft to solve the sensor issue in 2018, and the two eventually built a prototype system that allowed a car to display real-time information on a linked headset.
The system enables the placement of virtual items both inside and outside the vehicle. Microsoft posted an image of the HoloLens 2 projecting a virtual map onto the dashboard of a car, with navigation arrows appearing ahead at important intersections. A second image shows it warning the driver of an impending pedestrian crossing.
