Microsoft is completely withdrawn from the HoloLens hardware business! What about users?
As you know, HoloLens, one of Microsoft’s biggest initiatives in the mixed reality, attracted great attention, especially in corporate solutions and military projects. However, the project has faced serious difficulties in recent years. So what happened? Here are the reasons behind the decision:

- Alex Kipman, the head of Hololes in 2022, left Microsoft after allegations about him.
- In 2023, the company entered a major dismissal process and the hardware department was reduced.
- The Holokens 2 team was also greatly affected by this process.

- Holokens 2 users will continue to receive support until 2027.
- Within the scope of IVAS project, solutions for military systems will continue to develop.
- Microsoft will shift its investments in the field of augmented reality and mixed reality to artificial intelligence and cloud services.
