System Requirements For Skype Hololens Functionality
I'm just having a windows 10 laptop built up so we can do a technology demonstration of the HoloLens and wondered if there were any special system requirements i.e. processor or graphics that might need to be considered.

@Ajai_Ahluwalia It appears no one provided any feedback on this issue. I believe you are not familiar with the technical aspects of the technology. The HoloLens is a head mounted display standalone system with it's own cpu processor, HPU halographic processing unit and components. It is available for purchase from Microsoft to Developers for US$3000 . You are perhaps thinking about using the Mixed Reality Headset from companies like Acer, HP Lenovo see https://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/store/collections/vrandmixedrealityheadsets.
You can find the specs for that here - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/mixed-reality/enthusiast-guide/windows-mixed-reality-minimum-pc-hardware-compatibility-guidelines
Info is provided a bit late but hope it helps if you still are researching.
