Playing holoquake to much, you'd get these strange automatisms in real life when you suddenly expect a shambler to come around a corner.
You pull out your rocket launcher and drop your groceries.

Actually, years ago I remember watching a video demonstrating an AR version of Quake. It was amazing to see the monsters aware of the real life obstacles while pursuiting the player. I supose one can find the video using some google fu (it predates youtube if memory serves me well).

It's not a true holographic device, it's just an augmented reality device, right?

it displays digital "holographs" through a lens i'm assuming similar to google glass.
