Craig Mundie, Microsoft’s Chief Research and Strategy Officer, describes how technologies today and in the future will enable more natural interactions, enhanced capabilities, make better decisions and help us connect with each other.

Holoflector is a unique, interactive augmented-reality mirror. Graphics are superimposed correctly on your own reflection to enable a novel augmented-reality experience. Presented at Microsoft Research’s TechFest 2012, Holoflector leverages the combined abilities of Kinect and Windows Phone to infer the position of your phone and render graphics that seem to hover above it.
