Microsoft Mesh Fundamentals and Interactivity with Physics

Microsoft Mesh is redefining the hybrid work landscape. This session introduces the core concepts of Microsoft Mesh, an innovative platform designed for creating rich, XR collaborative experiences. By focusing on the fundamentals and the dynamic capabilities of Mesh Physics, we demonstrate how this technology can transform remote interactions into engaging, shared environments. Learn about the development of immersive workspaces with avatars, spatial audio, and interactive tools, suitable for a range of professional settings. We'll also provide insights into the developer workflow using Unity demos, emphasizing how to harness Mesh for effective, interactive hybrid work solutions.

Code an immersive Copilot with Unity 3D, .NET and Azure AI!

In this session you will learn how to develop your first immersive copilot using Unity 3D, .NET, Azure AI services and Microsoft co-pilot. We learn about the fundamental building blocks to create an XR app using MRTK / C# a tool that allows developers to create collaborative and interactive mixed-reality cross-platform experiences.

We will have our well-known "Jarvis Buddy" that we will enrich with Azure AI bringing him to life and supporting users with productive receive and inspiration to encounter challenges they face in daily life.

We will of course give a live demo on stage! What XR device? Will be revealed on stage!

Coding a Drone Using Unity/.NET and ChatGPT AI!

We will start with an overview on Mixed Reality and learn how to use AI GPTs as a tool for creativity and inspiration with drone controls and demonstrate how you can boost your productivity! We'll use Unity 3D, .NET, and focus on UDP Client-Server networking for drone communication. Microsoft Copilot assists programmers, offering insights to boost decision-making and efficiency.

How can the dental sector benefit from Mixed Reality and the Metaverse?

Join us as we learn how the dental space can benefit of the Metaverse, This session focuses on how Mixed Reality can enhance the dental workspace, offering interactive 3D dental artifacts and revolutionizing patient experiences. We'll explore its role in patient education, treatment, remote collaboration, consulting and streamlining workflow. A notable point its application in navigated dental implantology, allowing precise overlay of crucial imaging during procedures.

Mixed Reality for Cultural Heritage

Mixed Reality for Cultural Heritage - Zaid begins with his personal journey of how he got into the Mixed Reality space and highlights his community engagement as a Microsoft MVP.

Through merging the past & present with his skills in Mixed Reality and bringing his personal experience in demonstrating the use of Mixed Reality and HoloLens 2 technology to bring history to life on the example of the ancient city of Palmyra in Syria (UNESCO World Heritage Site).

He demonstrates the virtual reconstruction of the destroyed monuments of Palmyra in their original form. Through different interaction possibilities and addressing different human senses with HoloLens 2, the user develops historical awareness and motivation to keep these monuments alive, and finally the audience learns about the potential that can be achieved with Mixed Reality and HoloLens 2.

Let's master the Jump into Mixed Reality!

In this session, you will get a glimpse of the mixed reality spectrum and get tips & tricks on how to get into this space.

As a game developer, hardcore programmer you may have already mastered the essential skills for making PC, mobile, and console games, and you are probably familiar with working with programmers, designers, and 3D artists. The game changer here is what tools support your journey into AR/VR/MR.

Cross-platform tools like Mixed Reality Toolkit (MRTK) and StereoKit make this jump a little easier. Learn how this free, Microsoft-driven, open-source project can kick start your MR exploration with an enhanced volumetric UX / UI system and pre-defined components that accelerate cross-platform development in Unity.
