Defining the Workflow
Working on this project allowed me to discover methods around rapid prototyping for immersive immersive computing. My list of starting essentials to help shape an idea and drive team direction are.
Set time for ideation - end with whatever ideas are on the board, then vote for the favorite.
Break down idea into the Reality Periodic Table - identify which interactions to build out and how.
Whiteboard the scenarios and identify all pieces playing a part in the experience with a different color.
Break into the numerous programs to prototype; Illustrator, Unity, 3dMaxx or any other 3D modeler.
Paper Games t0 Holograms
Remember playing paper football in the classroom or cafeteria? Shooting free points in fear of being found out, and losing your fun to confiscation.
Maybe siting at home after school or, if you are daring - in the office making paper airplanes that would fly through fan winds and ceiling obstacles?
Do all of these again, without all of the risks, better competition and more fun. Enter Paper Games - Hololens Style.
Outcome
We were able to get the the paper hologram football to respond to contact, fly through the goal and have that event count as a GOAL! The overall presentation was well put forth and we won 1st place!
