HoloLens Skype == Sweet;

imageDay 2 (continued): Skype on the HoloLens == Sweet;

Easily choose the person you want to Skype from the floating window – or – if you’re skyped Cortona asks you if you want to “answer” or “ignore” – voice controls work flawlessly.

The person with whom Skype shows up in another floating window, which you can either “pin” or let it move along with you as you walk about. 

They see through your eyes – thus the space around you and themselves – (left) what the person wearing the HoloLens sees, and (right) what the person at their PC sees.

One thing that is not apparently a feature yet is what they show in this video about HoloLens Skype (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4QiGYtd3qNI), ie. shows to the person at the PC “writing” in holograms that the HoloLens wearer can see… assume that is to come…

Here’s the PC side UI that the video shows… next version?  Currently using 7.21.0.100
