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.

Envisioning


As we considered a real-world example in the previous project, let's follow a similar process and make this application development close to realistic. Let's assume you are working for XYZ Inc., which is a leading building-management company responsible for managing the day-to-day maintenance and safety of various buildings spread out across different cities as well as countries. The maintenance and safety of these buildings is a very time consuming and tedious job. To simplify this job and reduce human errors, XYZ Inc. is planning to leverage automation by bringing new technologies, such as the Internet of Things (IoT), connected solution automated alert systems, predictive maintenance, and very advanced real-time graphical views for administrators so that they can make decisions quickly and reduce the overall time for decision making.

To achieve this vision of XYZ Inc., the first thing you will do is to understand their vision better, and, to do that, schedule a meeting with...
