It would be perfect for creating a virtual environment for Subs. In their duty hours, crew could use systems like this to create virtual integrated rooms where separated people are now able to seemingly face each other and communicate as easily as if they were right next to each other. In off duty hours, crew could play games or exercise in virtual parks to escape the feeling of being trapped in a sub for months at a time.

This should probably go directly into medical research and training. Microsoft so often shows demos revolving around personal entertainment, but AR has significant uses in professional fields like medicine, architecture, physics, and undoubtedly many more. I think it's pretty bro of Microsoft to do this kind of project with schools, so they too can discover more uses for the Hololens other than Minecraft and poon.

Police, Tank and aircraft crews, border and airport security, EMT, special forces--when they become more robust and soldier-proof; the list goes on and on.
