WASHINGTON, Jan. 21, 2015.- Microsoft unfolded on Wednesday a new version of Windows, as well as a new 3D device called HoloLens .
The company showcased the new lenses, which allow users interact with three-dimensional images, in an event that also revealed the new features of the standard operating system of the company.
Insiders pointed out that Windows 10 is designed to accept the current use of computers, offering similar experiences while the user is a personal computer to a smartphone, tablet and other devices such as game consoles or even holographic projectors.
Although it is designed to allow applications to work the same way in all these devices, Windows 10 also come with a new internet browser closely integrated Cortana, competition from company to Siri. Microsoft expand at Cortana to serve as a search engine and personal assistant, able to answer questions and commands such as “play music” on laptops and desktop as well as mobile devices.
And breaking with past patterns, Microsoft announced that Windows 10 will be put into service in a few months as a free upgrade for users of computers or devices currently provided with Windows 8.1 or 7 the two previous versions.
Microsoft bets big on that Windows 10 will help you regain ground lost to the boom of mobile computing. Windows had been the dominant operating system in the market for laptops and desktops, but that business has suffered in the presence of tablets and smartphones.
Hoping to recover a wider audience, Microsoft promises that Windows 10 provide a familiar experience across all devices, a common platform for software developers to create applications that work on all of them.
“Windows 10 is built for a world where there will be more devices that people on the planet, “said the CEO of the company Satya Nadella the operational center of Microsoft. He said the company wants to “allow unimpeded exchange between devices as one goes from home to work.”
The competitors like Apple and Google also focus on that goal, creating applications for example, saving files and pictures created on a PC and allow the user to access them on a smartphone. But analysts say the new features of Windows 10 might give the edge to Microsoft.
Windows 10 will be used in Microsoft’s Xbox consoles. A new Xbox application for computers running Windows 10 will give users a single place to find posts, videos and games that have been played on various devices.
And with regard to new holographic device the company, ejecutivosno say when goes on sale. But they said their applications ranging from games to more serious purposes, such as helping a surgeon to visualize a new operating technique. Nadella said its price should be attractive to both individuals and businesses
