One of my colleague Mickey MacDonald has been developing a great set of resources and workshops which are perfect for you introducing students to developing for Windows MR.
In these labs you will learn how to get started building Windows Mixed Reality experiences using Unity3d.
The topics covered in the workshop are as follows:
-
Setting up the Unity3d environment for Mixed Reality development
-
How to render motion controllers at run-time
-
How to use custom models for motion controllers
-
Instantiating and placing 3D objects using the motion controllers
-
Handling teleportation and locomotion
-
Deploying the experience to a device
- Building a custom 3D application launcher
This workshop has been broken down into four labs. Each Lab builds off of the previous lab, to create a complete deploy-able example.
Each lab corresponds with the preceding presentation. You can find the slide for each presentation in the slides folder
Please follow each of the Labs in order. To check your work each of the labs contains a completed version.
