Azure mixed reality
Mixed reality for every developer and every business
Demystifying mixed reality
Mixed reality is a blend of the physical world and digital world. In mixed reality, digital information is represented by holograms—objects made of light and sound—that appear in the space around you. Through artificial intelligence, these holograms respond to commands and interact with real-world surfaces in real time for a more natural and intuitive experience. In short, mixed reality helps you bring your work and data to life when you need it, where you need it. Start building secure, collaborative mixed reality solutions today using intelligent services, best-in-class hardware, and cross-platform tools.
Intelligent services
Make the world your app canvas. Build applications with spatial awareness to enable 3D training, predictive equipment maintenance, design review, and more in the context of your users’ environments.
Best-in-class hardware
With HoloLens 2 and Azure Kinect DK, our best depth sensors and computer vision are at your fingertips, so you can build for your most critical scenarios and focus on what matters: code.
Cross-platform support
Engage larger audiences with documentation and support for mobile and HoloLens devices. With development tools for a broad range of platforms, you’re empowered to build your way.
Trusted cloud security
Step confidently into mixed reality with enterprise-grade privacy and compliance at your back. Easily spot and close down threats or gaps with built-in security tools and intelligence.
"The 2D screen cannot convey a problem that's so complicated. You add augmented reality to that, and you can understand what's really happening."
Paul Mihalic, Distinguished Software Architect, Bentley Systems
Create more helpful, relevant experiences using intelligent services
Unlock what every human is an expert at—the three-dimensional, physical world around us—with Azure mixed reality services. Help people create, learn, and collaborate more effectively by capturing and surfacing digital information within the context of their work and world. Bring 3D to mobile devices, headsets, and other untethered devices. Using Azure, help ensure that your most sensitive information is protected.
Build multi-user, spatially aware mixed reality applications using Spatial Anchors
Experience 3D without compromise using Remote Rendering
Automatically align and anchor 3D content to objects in the physical world.
Gain deeper spatial understanding through best-in-class hardware
Gather rich data about physical environments—and the people and things in them—with advanced sensor technology. Or, put your workforce at the center of an immersive business solution with the ultimate mixed reality device.
Build advanced computer vision and speech models with a developer kit and PC peripheral that brings our best artificial intelligence (AI) sensors together in one device.
