Kicking off Development and Object Recognition with HoloLens

What an exciting time to be on the forefront of technology, with HoloLens poised to be a major game-changer and new devices being developed for the mixed reality market.
SSW was one of the first companies in Australia to purchase the $3000 HoloLens developer edition.

Microsoft originally assumed it would be a gaming product, but surprisingly, these dev editions are mostly not being purchased by entertainment or gaming companies. In fact, the business demand of this product has dramatically outperformed Microsoft’s expectations.

During this presentation, Stephen will take you through:

· The six fundamental building blocks of HoloLens’ applications
· Unity setup for HoloLens development
· HoloLens object recognition with Vuforia
· HoloLens demonstration With a working HoloLens to demonstrate, this presentation is not to be missed.
