Free 3D viewer app to preview glTF models as holograms
I would like to share with you 3D model viewer app that is available for free in HoloLens Store. Short video preview: https://vimeo.com/690542724 IF 3D Viewer is a simple app for HoloLens 2 headset to showcase 3D models in Mixed Reality. It allows you to browse files stored on your device and load them as holograms in front of you. 3D models can be moved around, rotated, or adjusted as you need. You can disable user interaction to avoid accidental movement during a presentation. We understand that 3D or CAD models are often confidential and should not be stored in the cloud or leave the organization's network. Therefore, our app doesn't upload your files anywhere and works completely offline. IF 3D Viewer is available for free for HoloLens 2 in the Microsoft Store https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/if-3d-viewer/9plxwqxws4xg

Unity3d & MRTK open Hololens 2 camera on button click and display the image in the Untiy scene after
As described in the title I have a scene wich contains a button. I attached a script with the code you see below to a ```PhotoManager``` GameObject. The button runs ```TakePhoto()``` from the script below when the button gets pressed. I expected that when you click the button, the HoloLens will open the camera and you can take a picture. Once the picture has been taken, the user should see it in the scene. However, nothing happens when you click the button... When i run the scene in unity and press the button in the game window i'm getting this error: ```InvalidOperationException: Sequence contains no elements```. (I dont have a webcam connected to my computer) The code is form the https://docs.unity3d.com/2018.4/Documentation/Manual/windowsholographic-photocapture.html. using UnityEngine; using System.Collections; using System.Linq; using UnityEngine.Windows.WebCam; public class PhotoCaptureExample : MonoBehaviour { PhotoCapture photoCaptureObject = null; Texture2D targetTexture = null; // Use this for initialization public void TakePhoto() { Resolution cameraResolution = PhotoCapture.SupportedResolutions.OrderByDescending((res) => res.width * res.height).First(); targetTexture = new Texture2D(cameraResolution.width, cameraResolution.height); // Create a PhotoCapture object PhotoCapture.CreateAsync(false, delegate (PhotoCapture captureObject) { photoCaptureObject = captureObject; CameraParameters cameraParameters = new CameraParameters(); cameraParameters.hologramOpacity = 0.0f; cameraParameters.cameraResolutionWidth = cameraResolution.width; cameraParameters.cameraResolutionHeight = cameraResolution.height; cameraParameters.pixelFormat = CapturePixelFormat.BGRA32; // Activate the camera photoCaptureObject.StartPhotoModeAsync(cameraParameters, delegate (PhotoCapture.PhotoCaptureResult result) { // Take a picture photoCaptureObject.TakePhotoAsync(OnCapturedPhotoToMemory); }); }); } void OnCapturedPhotoToMemory(PhotoCapture.PhotoCaptureResult result, PhotoCaptureFrame photoCaptureFrame) { // Copy the raw image data into the target texture photoCaptureFrame.UploadImageDataToTexture(targetTexture); // Create a GameObject to which the texture can be applied GameObject quad = GameObject.CreatePrimitive(PrimitiveType.Quad); Renderer quadRenderer = quad.GetComponent<Renderer>() as Renderer; quadRenderer.material = new Material(Shader.Find("Custom/Unlit/UnlitTexture")); quad.transform.parent = this.transform; quad.transform.localPosition = new Vector3(0.0f, 0.0f, 3.0f); quadRenderer.material.SetTexture("_MainTex", targetTexture); // Deactivate the camera photoCaptureObject.StopPhotoModeAsync(OnStoppedPhotoMode); } void OnStoppedPhotoMode(PhotoCapture.PhotoCaptureResult result) { // Shutdown the photo capture resource photoCaptureObject.Dispose(); photoCaptureObject = null; } }

Real world object detection
Hi All, I hope this is the right place to ask this question. If it is not, please point me to the right location. Thanks. I have been asked to develop a HoloLens 2 healthcare application that should work as guide for patients on how to handle different devices for blood sugar measurements, insulin pumps etc. But I need some help/information for how to do this the best way. The HoloLens 2 application must be able to recognize the device (blood sugar measurement device) on the table, so that it can start telling what to do with it. Are you able to help me with this? Thank you in advance

Wifi Handoff Issues...
I am experiencing issues with a business application that has been developed for HoloLens. I am running the application over the wifi and the application needs to handoff between access points over a 200,000 sq. ft. area. When the handoff occurs the application isn't handling this correctly and I get an API timeout error when the wifi handoff occurs. Are there any recommended HoloLens, Network, or Application configuration settings or best practices that should be followed so that this doesn't happen or is handled more gracefully? Thanks.

Greetings & Rapid prototyping using PowerApps (Mixed Reality) + SPO API/Python + Solidworks & Dremel
Greetings all, hope you, family & friends are ok. Here's offering a small prayer for things to get better soon. Staying positive & continuing the monthly post. Here's a quick view of rapid prototyping, from CAD design to 3D printing/running a motor assembly: 1. Design components in CAD (Solidworks). 2. Import file into Power Apps & visualize, check form/fit with housing using the Mixed Reality feature. 3. 3D print (Dremel 3D45) & run system with PowerApps + SPOl API & Python coder (easy IOT).
