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

HoloLens in healthcare


Healthcare is important for everyone, and if we bring the latest technology to the healthcare industry, that will be helpful for everyone. So, in this scenario, we will integrate HoloLens with HealthVault. HealthVault is a data platform for both personal, as well as business, enterprises. Users can use HealthVault to store and share their health information. Healthcare enterprises can use this centralized data store to build personalized services.

Scenarios can be: medical practitioner uses holographic application that connects and pulls data from HealthVault to visualize a patient's progress and health in one complete view, rather than going through multiple medical reports.

Visualizing patient health data using HoloLens

Solution

To achieve this scenario, solution design is broken down into two different layers. Within the first layer, we develop proxy services or APIs, which connect with HealthVault using HealthVault APIs, aggregate, and transform data as per holographic...
