Interacting with Holograms Using Unity

HoloLens, and mixed reality (MR) applications in general, offer us a glimpse into how we will soon be interacting with our computers. It will be an era where we are freed from the desk, an era where computing is brought into our world--a continuation of what the Smartphone has started.
