And that's a wrap. I hope you have enjoyed our journey during which we have developed a range of mixed reality applications, ranging from the Terminator-style vision to collaborative design tools. As mentioned throughout this book, the technology is very much in its infancy, but I hope the examples and discussions presented here have got you excited about the near future, one where our computers are not boxes that sit on our desks but are augmentations of ourselves. With that in mind, if you could give someone superpowers, what would they be?

Overview of this book
Are you a developer who is fascinated with Microsoft HoloLens and its capabilities? Do you want to learn the intricacies of working with the HoloLens SDK and create your own apps? If so, this is the book for you.
This book introduces and demystifies the HoloLens platform and introduces new ways you can interact with computers (Mixed Reality). It will teach you the important concepts, get you excited about the possibilities, and give you the tools to continue exploring and experimenting. You will go through the journey of creating four independent examples throughout the book, two using DirectX and two using Unity. You will learn to implement spatial mapping and gesture control, incorporate spatial sound, and work with different types of input and gaze. You will also learn to use the Unity 5 SDK for HoloLens and create apps with it.
Collectively, the apps explore the major concepts of HoloLens, but each app is independent, giving you the flexibility to choose where to start (and end).
