UBIK HoloLens Client Basics

Login

The HoloLens App uses the first profile that was found where IsDefault is set to true. If none is found, it will connect to the Demo server automatically.

Commands

The HoloLens App can be controlled with voice commands and gestures. In most cases, except for the "Assign POI" and "Refresh POI" voice commands, a POI can refer to any type of placeable object. In the HoloLens app, this means regular content objects, documents, or tasks.

Create POI	Creates a new POI at the spot the user is currently gazing at
Assign POI	Switches the currently focused POI into dictation mode and listens for text input. The text is searched against the data model.
Move POI	Puts the POI in movement mode. This can also be triggered by AirTapping the POI
Place POI	Places the POI that is currently being moved
Delete POI	Removes a POI from the virtual world
