Microsoft HoloLens By Example. Create immersive Augmented Reality experiences
Joshua Newnham
Are you a developer who is fascinated with Microsoft HoloLens and its capabilities? Do you want to learn the intricacies of working with the HoloLens SDK and create your own apps? If so, this is the book for you.This book introduces and demystifies the HoloLens platform and introduces new ways you can interact with computers (Mixed Reality). It will teach you the important concepts, get you excited about the possibilities, and give you the tools to continue exploring and experimenting. You will go through the journey of creating four independent examples throughout the book, two using DirectX and two using Unity. You will learn to implement spatial mapping and gesture control, incorporate spatial sound, and work with different types of input and gaze. You will also learn to use the Unity 5 SDK for HoloLens and create apps with it. Collectively, the apps explore the major concepts of HoloLens, but each app is independent, giving you the flexibility to choose where to start (and end).

Termin wirtualizacja od jakiegoś czasu jest bardzo modny. Oznacza abstrakcję zasobów obliczeniowych opartą na innych zasobach, jednak specjaliści IT słowo to kojarzą z abstrakcją sprzętu (serwerów), czyli oddzieleniem systemu operacyjnego od sprzętu, na którym jest uruchomiony. Dzięki temu na jednym fizycznym serwerze można jednocześnie uruchamiać wiele systemów operacyjnych. W takiej właśnie technologii działa rodzina produktów VMware vSphere. Tego rodzaju wirtualizacja przynosi wiele różnych korzyści, od oszczędności wynikających z mniejszej liczby potrzebnego sprzętu po lepszy dostęp do sieci i puli zasobów, które można wykorzystywać z dużo większą efektywnością. W książce znalazły się wszelkie informacje potrzebne do instalowania, konfigurowania i monitorowania wirtualnego środowiska z wykorzystaniem VMware vSphere 6.7. Zaprezentowano tu szeroki zakres możliwości vSphere, opisano też przydatne funkcjonalności i udogodnienia. Dokładnie przedstawiono zagadnienie instalacji i konfiguracji sieci wraz z magazynami danych vSphere. Kolejne rozdziały poświęcono wysokiej dostępności, nadmiarowości i wykorzystaniu zasobów. Nie zabrakło opisu tworzenia maszyn wirtualnych i zarządzania nimi, a także monitorowania ich pracy i diagnozowania problemów. To wyczerpujące kompendium wiedzy o implementowaniu, utrzymywaniu i diagnozowaniu środowisk wirtualnych klasy korporacyjnej. W książce między innymi: planowanie wdrożenia i proces wdrażania środowiska VMware vSphere konfigurowanie sieci, maszyn wirtualnych oraz pamięci masowych zarządzanie przydzielaniem i wykorzystaniem zasobów monitorowanie wydajności i dostępności infrastruktury zapewnienie ciągłości działania automatyzowanie typowych operacji administracyjnych VMware vSphere: zostań mistrzem wirtualizacji!
