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

Chapter 5. Remote Monitoring of Smart Building(s) Using HoloLens - Scenario Identification and Sketching

In the previous chapter, we have successfully developed and deployed our first holographic application on HoloLens and tested it out. You have learned the complete cycle of holographic application development, starting from envisioning, scenario identification, sketching, 3D Modeling, setting up a development environment, gestures and interactions implementation using scripting, and, finally, deploying the application on HoloLens and testing it in the real world. The application we have developed and tested is an independent application, and doesn't interact with any other external systems. However, that will not be the case in real-world enterprise scenarios, where applications usually share data with other systems, either in real time or near real time, or in an offline mode.

In this chapter and the next chapter, you will learn to build the first connected holographic application that...
