What could be the future for the leading computer processors in a world that increasingly uses less computer? Intel has taken seriously this new challenge and is committed to the development of new platforms that are already being known, but still missing settle.

No wires and the concept of “all in one” in the immersive experience. Thus conceived the manufacturer veteran processors Intel the future of this emerging technology. Project Alloy is the name chosen to baptize a new platform for virtual reality with which it aims to eliminate at a stroke one of the main limitations of this type of helmets immerse users into a parallel universe.

It is, indeed the very idea that glasses HoloLens of the tech giant Microsoft, experiencing augmented reality. Indeed, both the US companies have joined forces to promote the new platform. As the headset will be compatible with Windows 10 Holographic platform, so that developers can easily build or develop the applications for the system.
However and as expected, the US company, which is not directly marketed a device but will distribute the platform from the middle of the year? 2017, because it has devised a system that can create virtual reality helmets that include various computer components as a fully independent device. So, the future of virtual reality looks better every day.
Furthermore, the Intel CEO, Brian Krzanich said onstage that “anyone can combine the Project Alloy hardware with Windows Holographic platform”.
