Just hanging out in Soho Bike shop, just had a play around with a holographic VR headset that some hardware engineers/programmers are playing around with - it threw animated objects/people into various parts of the shop that you could seamlessly walk around and interact with, it was so close to feeling like there was actually a real object in front of you - but that you were just wearing a pair of slightly heavy sunglasses, utterly mad!

The next 10 years in tech development are going to be very, very exciting. I mean, we could implement something similar in DH goggles and try to follow our favourite riders down famous tracks etc and see their lines.

Totally nerded out here.

Think the hardware was a prototype microsoft thing, at least that's what they seemed to be mumbling to me. 😀
