Template for Holographic App ? #69

Closed gbhatt07 closed 8 years ago

gbhatt07 commented 8 years ago

Question: Hello. If its possible to create a holographic app using Angle can you please provide a VS template. I tried to make changes in the template code for UWP Holographic app to have Angle and use opengl but got stuck. If not the template but just provide some guidance or the API/code flow, that would be of great help. Thank you.

Hi Guarav,

We do currently have experimental support for ANGLE on HoloLens. Heads-up that there are some changes you'll need to make to your app to get it to work, and you will also need to recompile ANGLE out of our experimental branch ms-holographic-experimental to get the holographic support.

We are interested in potentially doing more with this. Are you able to share any details about the holographic apps that you would like to create using ANGLE?

Thanks,

Mike.

HI Mike,

Thanks for the info. Sure I will try to create the app using the new experiment branch and update. Right now I am just trying to create basic applications like rotating cube etc and see if I can also use shaders etc as proof of concept but eventually we have a visualization software from which we would like to deploy its program/apps as hologram.

Thanks Gaurav

Hi Guarav,

You may be in luck; the default spinning cube is up-and-running as a hologram in our experimental branch. It should be relatively straightforward to get started with that by using the included app template.

Visualization is a great application for holographic computing! Let us know how things go, and if you end up hitting any roadblocks with this.

Thanks again, Mike.

HI Mike,

Yeah, I was able to run the default spinning cube and deploy it in hololens. I will try to play around and have better understanding of the APIs before trying to do the visualization apps and sure will ask for help if I got stuck. Thank you very much :)

Hi Guarav,

I believe this issue has now been resolved, since you were able to run the default spinning cube on a HoloLens. Please feel free to reactivate this issue if you are having problems here.

Thanks!

The templates works with Hololens emulator! Thanks
