    So the Hololens can fill the whole field of view with image? That means it then turns into a VR headset? Is this correct?

    And does the image you see 3D like we see in VR headset? Or just flat?

    No, HoloLens cannot fill your Field of View with a hologram. It can only fill a small square in front of you with holograms.

    I saw this video where it shows 360 view of an Italian city. Its starts with a painting then grows to cover the whole fov. It is 360. That means it's VR right?

    Some of the videos are a little misleading. When capturing video from a HoloLens, it actually renders more to the capture than the physical device is capable of showing.

    Here is a good demonstration of that:

    Even though Windows is rendering the full view to any screenshots or video, the hardware can only put the highlighted area in front of you.
