Overview of this book

Do you want to create stunning applications with HoloLens? Are you a developer who is fascinated with Microsoft HoloLens and its capabilities? If so, this is the book for you. This book introduces and demystifies the HoloLens platform and shows you different ways of interaction with computers (mixed-reality). You will start your mixed-reality journey by understanding different types of digital reality. You will learn to build your first holographic app. Also, you will understand holographic application integration possibilities within Line of Business Applications using Azure. Moving ahead, you will create Integrated Solutions using IoT with HoloLens. Gradually you'll learn how to create and deploy apps on a device. You will learn to publish application to the store; if you are an enterprise developer, you will also manage and distribute applications for enterprise-enabled or domain-joined HoloLens. Finally, you will develop an end-to-end realistic holographic app, ranging from scenario identification to sketching, development, deployment, and, finally, production.

Build End-to-End Retail Solution - Scenario Identification and Sketching

Exploring the possibilities with HoloLens


The way MR delivers unique experiences, companies and enterprises have already started exploring a variety of scenarios for its applicability. Let's explore some of these possibilities:

  • Virtual collaboration
  • Remote expert guidance
  • People-centric application

Virtual collaboration

MR gives an opportunity to collaborate using virtual object in real space. Team members can work together on the same or shared virtual objects in real space, brainstorm ideas, and collaborate in an altogether different way. This collaboration scenario can be used in many different enterprise use cases. One of them could be sales representative who collaborate with a customer and explains to them about a new project through virtual objects, and the customer can visualize the project in 3D Space.

In the building/construction industry, architects/designers can use MR devices to share the vision of the ongoing construction and even collaborate on ideas about its development.
