This Sunday, Microsoft is expected to launch the successor to HoloLens at MWC 19 press event. The pre-conference press event will have Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, CVP Julia White and Technical Fellow Alex Kipman. Microsoft has now confirmed that they will live stream this event for everyone.

HoloLens 2 is expected to have an improved Holographic Processing Unit with more AI capabilities, and an improved Kinect-like depth camera. Microsoft is reportedly bringing development of the lenses internally to achieve this at a reasonable cost. HoloLens 2 will be powered by the recently announced Qualcomm Snapdragon XR1 processor or the Snapdragon 850 mobile platform, which was announced in June last year.

The live stream will start at 6:00 p.m. CET/9:00 a.m. PT on Feb 24th and you can watch it from the source link below.
