In this world you could do whatever you want, like resizing the furniture, painting them or watching T.V at the wall before you anywhere and anytime. While this seems to be a story from a typical Hollywood movie, this is actually a technology that is being developed by Microsoft called Microsoft Hololens. Microsoft Hololens uses the technology of advanced holograms and embeds the digital and virtual images to blend in with the physical stuffs in your environment so that they both look original and real. It is considered to bring the entertainment as well as education to a whole another level as there is a feel of hands on experience.

Windows 10 will arrive with the features that was popular with Windows 7 users and the features that was incorporated in Windows 8.0 and Windows 8.1 such as hybrid touch and stylus supports. Windows 10 is also the only platform that would support the most anticipated Microsoft Hololens.

6) There was a lot of hypes and buzz about Oculus rift in 2014. When Facebook first started with the idea of virtual gaming to revolutionize and transform the way we used to play the game, they never thought that this idea would be received by the masses in the way it has. Facebook bought back the rights for Oculus rift and this device will merge the player with the in game virtual world, giving the players a more immersive and an effective gaming session. While 2014 saw the beta release of Oculus rift for the testers, 2015 will see the product in the commercial market for masses. This will change the way we enjoy the games and movies and will give the game developers and film makers a new path for their business.

7) Another big theme to except in 2015 would be smarter homes. Soon everything around your house would be controlled by your smart devices such as smart phones, tablets and computers. These devices will act as the central hub for your home and would remind and control everything from door lock, light switches to thermostats and other electronic devices such as fridges and microwaves. Apple has already introduced HomeKit along with IOS 8 and Microsoft has already Nest and now with the recent purchase of SmartThings by Samsung, it is clear that there would a lot of competitors for the Smart homes this year and would be a popular theme.

Amazon has already planned to use drones, a small light weight flying machine, and has actually conducted various testing for the drones. This will change the whole online shopping experience as this auto-controlled vehicle will bring the item to your door step within 30 minutes of ordering the item. If everything goes well and the technology gets a green signal from the authority we will see a lot of these little flying machines in the sky this year.

10) The last technology in the list is 4K TV’s. Yes you are right, 4K TV’s are not a new innovation, and actually they have been commercially available in the market during the last year. But the exorbitant prices for which they sold made the 4K TV sale a big let-down. But this year with Sony and LG in the 4K TV field, more of the 4K TV’s are expected to arrive at the market and thus there would be more competition which would ultimately result in the low price for these ultra-high definition TV’s. They will replace 1080p TV’s in the market soon.
