Mixed Reality viewer is somewhat of a forgotten app for most Windows 10 users, but Microsoft has been working at making it more useful, turning the name into something of a misnomer now.
In its latest update for Insiders in the Skip Ahead ring, the app gained the ability to insert 3D objects into a video and then output the result to create results which would have required a supercomputer 20 years ago.
