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

Envisioning


To make the whole development process real, let's assume you are working for XYZ Inc., which has a global presence and has employees spread out across the world at different office locations. XYZ has procured HoloLens devices and has also got the holographic application developed. Now, their business problem is to train their employees about usage and handling of HoloLens devices so that employees can start using these devices in their day-to-day work and be more productive.

To achieve this, the first thing you will do is schedule a meeting with XYZ leadership and stake holders, and learn about their vision and current problems. You can take different approaches to conducting such meetings with high-level stake holders, and one of the approaches could be to brainstorm ideas using sticky notes session. The following diagram illustrates this:
