While Microsoft makes the Hololens 2 and has partnered with most major PC manufacturers like HP to build Windows Mixed Reality VR headsets, Microsoft Mesh is designed to be device and operating system agnostic, however, it currently supports only Windows and Meta VR headsets.
It makes use of elements of the AltspaceVR platform Microsoft acquired in 2017.[2] Mesh was first announced at Microsoft's Ignite conference in 2021.[3] Ahead of Ignite 2024, Christian Cawley wrote for TechRadar that "some might argue [that the promise of Mesh] has yet to be fully delivered.[4]
Microsoft has worked with companies such as Accenture and Takeda to test Mesh.[5]
