DIFFERENT REALITIES
Merging of real and virtu
al worlds to produce new
environments and visuali
zations where physical a
nd digital objects co-exist
and interact in real time.
An overlay of synthetic c
ontent on the real world t
hat is anchored to and int
eracts with the real world
MIXED REALITY
Direct or indirect view of a
physical, real-world enviro
nment whose elements ar
e augmented by computer
-generated sensory input
such as sound, video, gra
phics or GPS data
An overlay of content on t
he real world where that c
ontent is not anchored to
or part of it
AUGMENTED REALITY
Generation of realistic ima
ges, sounds and other sen
sations that replicate a real
environment or create an i
maginary setting
An immersive experience c
reated entirely from compu
ter-generated Content. Als

20. #MWCP18
REGISTRATION OF AN APP IS DONE IN THE FOLLOWING PORTAL
HTTPS://APPS.DEV.MICROSOFT.COM
HTTPS://PORTAL.AZURE.COM (RECOMMENDED)
USE A PERSONAL OR
ORGANIZATIONAL ACCOUNT FOR REGISTRATION
USE ORGANIZATIONAL ACCOUNT WHEN BUILDING APP
FOR YOUR ORGANIZATION
SELECT ONE OR MORE PLATFORMS

25. MATHEMATICAL VISUALIZATION

26. #MWCP18
A NUMBER OF ALGORITHMS WHICH ALLOWS YOU TO DRAW DATA AND THEIR
UNDERLAYING RELATIONSHIPS IN A TWO- OR THREE-DIMENSIONAL WAY
FORCE DETECT GRAPH

27. #MWCP18
DATA IS POSITIONED BY NODES AND RELATIONS ARE POSITIONED BY EDGES
ALGORITHM ASSIGN FORCES BETWEEN NODES AND BETWEEN EDGES
EDGES ARE MOSTLY THE SAME LENGTH AND
DO HAVE THE LEAST NUMBER OF CROSSINGS
ADDING NEW NODES AND EDGES WILL REPOSITION THE MODEL

29. EVERYTHING COMING TOGETHER

30. #MWCP18
STEPS & CHALLENGES
Setup a project in Unity
for building a Mixed
Reality experience
Create UWP DLL to
access Microsoft Graph
Integrate Force Detect
Graph code
Add controller code to
access DLL and
use FDG to
handle the data
Use GameObjects and
Components to create
experience
Implement Gaze and
Gestures for interaction

32. TAKEAWAYS

33. #MWCP18
MICROSOFT GRAPH API ALLOWS YOU TO ACCES ALMOST ANY TYPE OF DATA
FROM OFFICE 365 THROUGH AN UNIFIED SYSTEM.
THE MICROSOFT.GRAPH INTERFACE ALLOWS YOU TO EASILY AUTHENTICATE AND
RETRIEVE DATA
USE MATHEMATICAL ALGORITHMS TO VISUALIZE YOUR DATA IN SPECIFIC WAYS
