I agree with frcguy, ive never experienced either HoloLens or glass, but my guess is the glass has less interference? How is the vision inside the Holocene?
The big problem with using it at a drivers station right now is that the HoloLens is a self contained computer that is designed to connect via Wi-Fi. To make it FRC legal for the drivers under the current rules you'd have to disable the Wi-Fi and use a USB tether to the driver's station.

But I'm guessing you'd like to see something like this.

As for Google Glass, it's a different tech. HoloLens puts holograms in the real environment using binocular RBG holographic waveguides. Glass was monocular, so there is no depth perception or understanding. If I put a holographic shark in the moat, it stays there, swimming in the moat, it doesn't mater where I move in space, the shark stays put. (Unless it's coded to move of course.)
