Microsoft Hololens 2

The Hyperspace Metaverse Platform has support for Microsoft Hololens and Microsoft Hololens 2. This enables self-paced instruction with Guides (bots that can provide guidance and collect user behavior), mixed reality meetings, mixed reality training and mixed reality events.

  • Requires Hololens 2 or Hololens 1 with minimum RS4 release.
  • Edge browser with WebVR
  • Firefox Reality AR with WebXR
  • Integration with all leading Learning Management Systems (LMS)
  • Microsoft Sharepoint Integration
  • Support for embedding within Microsoft Dynamics 365

Instructions

  1. Click the goggles icon in the toolbar to enter Immersive mode
  2. Allow Immersive View permission (only required once)

Note: for Hololens 1 you may need to enable WebVR in Edge, enter about:flags in the browser address bar

Use Cases

Use bots that operate as instructor guides.

Place interactive items within the world around you.

Authoring Hints

For performance use Scenario version 2.16+

Use the AR template in the Dashboard for pass-through scenarios.

To enable transparency in an existing scenario use a black background for the scene. An easy way to do this is assign a black texture to the skybox.

We recommend using the black pixel as the splashscreen image. This will make the background effectively transparent for the 2D Edge window and the title and progress bar will float in space.

Limitations

Edge browser in Hololens 1 does not support Mixed Reality meetings due to lack of WebRTC support.
