The rift is not really holographic, it's 'just' stereoscopic. Nvidia is working on light field glasses though, and I believe this might be the future, because it allows for much sleeker eyepieces, at a higher computational cost. https://research.nvidia.com/publication/near-eye-light-field-displays https://research.nvidia.com/publication/near-eye-light-field...

I believe[1] that the head tracking qualifies it as holographic. That light field stuff looks super interesting... 1. http://doc-ok.org/?p=337 http://doc-ok.org/?p=337

  It's not holographic because you can't focus your eyes at different depths in the image.

    It's not holographic because it doesn't use diffractive / interferometric effects. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holography https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holography
