What is HoloStylusToolkit-Unity

The Holo-Stylus Toolkit is a collection of scripts and components intended to accelerate development of applications targeting the new 3D input device Holo-Stylus for head-mounted units. Holo-Stylus works as interaction and creation tool in Mixed Reality with yet unmatched precision and was developed by HoloLight. Currently Holo-Stylus Toolkit supports the creation of Mixed Reality applications for Microsoft HoloLens with Unity 3D.

Features

The project contains a toolkit which helps developers to create Mixed Reality Apps with ease and loads of useful and cool examples. There is also an emulator included to use the mouse as input device for testing your applications within the Unity Inspector in order to reduce development overhead.

Required Software

Holo-Stylus Driver SDK

Holo-Stylus Driver SDK is a Universal Windows Platform Library for establishing a bluetooth connection between Microsoft HoloLens running your app and the Headmounted Unit of Holo-Stylus to acquire pose data and device events of Holo-Stylus. Holo-Stylus Driver SDK is included as .NET DLL within Holo-Stylus Toolkit in the Plugins folder of the Unity project.
