Partnership with Altoura provides customers the ability to seamlessly transition from any XR device, like the discontinued Microsoft HoloLens, to the ARGO platform, while retaining their current Microsoft infrastructure

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Oct. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- DigiLens Inc., a leader in next-generation waveguide display technology and extended reality (XR) smartglasses, has launched the ARGO Next program, a critical step in future-proofing enterprise XR strategies as organizations everywhere face Microsoft HoloLens 2 end-of-life. In partnership with Altoura, the newest member of the DigiSaaS marketplace and a leading AI-powered frontline platform, ARGO Next enables seamless migration from any XR device, such as HoloLens, to enterprise-ready smartglasses, DigiLens ARGO^™, with full compatibility across existing Microsoft cloud infrastructure. Businesses can upskill their workforce with easy access to immersive SOPs, product manuals, and next-generation collaboration, bringing in a new era of productivity, training, and knowledge management.

"Microsoft pioneered an impressive frontline productivity transformation with HoloLens and their software solutions," said Jamie Fleming, Altoura CEO. "At Altoura, we're excited to see DigiLens step forward with ARGO—bringing customers next-generation hardware that pairs seamlessly with Altoura Frontline to make the transition effortless. Together, we're ensuring that enterprises can continue to scale knowledge, empower their frontline workers, and accelerate productivity with future-ready technology."

ARGO Next: Providing HoloLens Customers a Path Forward
