Bring mixed reality into your office workplace by building immersive experiences using data and content from your Office 365 platform. Imagine being able to sit at your desk and surround yourself with a 3D chart showing your work relationships as mined from your relationships with others based on how you collaborate together. This book shows you how to access your Office 365 data using the Microsoft Graph API, and then helps you present that data in a 3D modeling visualization using the Microsoft HoloLens 2 as a mixed reality device. This book covers the growing number of tools and techniques you can use to access and visualize data on a Microsoft HoloLens 2 device. Foremost is the Graph API, giving access to the full range of data in Office 365. Also covered are Unity and Visual Studio, the development environments from which you can create mixed reality applications for Microsoft HoloLens 2. You will learn how to load data from and save data to your Office 365 platform based on several interesting use cases. You will be able to extend your digital workplace into a 3D space powered by Microsoft HoloLens 2. Whether you know Office 365 and want to move toward mixed reality, or whether you know the Microsoft HoloLens 2 and want to build functionality around Office 365 data, this book helps you step up and accomplish your goal of bridging between mixed reality and Office 365. What You Will Learn Create immersive experiences using Microsoft HoloLens 2 and Office 365 Access Office 365 data programmatically using the Microsoft Graph API Control your immersive experiences using natural gestures and eye tracking Understand and correctly use different visualization models Implement design patterns to write better code in Unity Know how to access services using web requests via DLLs Who This Book Is For Developers who want to expand their knowledge of the Office 365 platform into the world of mixed reality by creating immersive experiences and 3D visualizations using the Microsoft HoloLens 2 and similar devices, and mixed reality developers who want to extend their repertoire toward serving everyday business needs of workers in corporate office environments

Build your own digital twin in no time! Key Features Build and design simple to complex digital twins solutions Create end-to-end solutions with Azure Digital Twins Integrate the Azure Digital Twins service with other Azure services to provide even richer solutions Book DescriptionIn today's world, clients are using more and more IoT sensors to monitor their business processes and assets. Think about collecting information such as pressure in an engine, the temperature, or a light switch being turned on or off in a room. The data collected can be used to create smart solutions for predicting future trends, creating simulations, and drawing insights using visualizations. This makes it beneficial for organizations to make digital twins, which are digital replicas of the real environment, to support these smart solutions. This book will help you understand the concept of digital twins and how it can be implemented using an Azure service called Azure Digital Twins. Starting with the requirements and installation of the Azure Digital Twins service, the book will explain the definition language used for modeling digital twins. From there, you'll go through each step of building digital twins using Azure Digital Twins and learn about the different SDKs and APIs and how to use them with several Azure services. Finally, you'll learn how digital twins can be used in practice with the help of several real-world scenarios. By the end of this book, you'll be confident in building and designing digital twins and integrating them with various Azure services. What you will learn Understand the concept and architecture of Azure Digital Twins Get to grips with installing and configuring the service and required tools Understand the Digital Twin Definition Language (DTDL) and digital twin models Explore the APIs and SDKs available to access the Azure Digital Twins services Monitor, troubleshoot, and secure digital twins Discover how to build, design, and integrate applications with various Azure services Explore real-life scenarios with Azure Digital Twins Who this book is forThis book is for Azure developers, Azure architects, and anyone who wants to learn more about how to implement IoT solutions using Azure Digital Twins and additional Azure services. Prior experience using the Azure Portal and a clear understanding of building applications using .NET will be helpful.
