HoloLens, Microsoft’s groundbreaking reality headset also known as Mixed Reality, overlaps holograms into a user’s vision of their environment. One gets to discover a new world by combining Virtual Reality & Augment Reality through HoloLens. It transforms the way we work and interact with the virtual world. This course introduces and demystifies the HoloLens platform and familiarizes you to new ways you can interact with computers (Mixed Reality). One gets an insight as the course takes you through the expedition of creating four independent examples using Unity 3D. you get to learn and implement spatial mapping and gesture control, incorporate spatial sound, and work with different types of input and gaze.
