Fologram for Hololens

PreviousFologram ApplicationsNextFologram for Mobile

Last updated 3 years ago

Was this helpful?

Setup

Ensure your Rhino/GH machine and Hololens are on the same wi-fi network.

Launch the Application

Launch the Fologram application through the Start Menu.

Connect to Rhino/Grasshopper

Upon launching, you will be immediately prompted to scan a QR code to connect to a Rhino session. Look at the QR code generated in Rhino. Refer to page for more details.

Model Placement/Snapping

Upon successful connection to Rhino, Fologram will be prompted to set the origin point of the holographic scene. This is tied to the origin point of the Rhino scene. The Hololens intermittently scans and maps a very rough 3D representation of your immediate environment. This allows you to roughly snap to surfaces. For the most part, this is perfectly acceptable.

The Fologram Menu gives you further manipulation if required.

Navigation and Interaction

Fologram only uses [air tapping] for interaction.

Fologram Menu

Tap and hold to bring up the Fologram Menu. This menu gives you access to the following functions:

Menu Function

Description

Snap to QR Codes

For precise model placement, this is the way to go.

Generate and print QR codes to use as snapping through Fologram in Rhino.

Parameters

Control any sliders, toggles or buttons synced through Grasshopper.

Layers

Linked to Rhino layers, use this to toggle locks and visibility.

Edit

Allows for coarse transformation of the scene based on the origin point.

Allowing for moving, rotating and scaling.

Models

Load or save a model.

These models are stored on the Hololens itself so a Rhino connection is not needed.

Note that Grasshopper elements are not saved in any way.

Settings

Hosts a variety of useful functions and display settings.

Restart can be found here to restart the application.

A variety of display settings can also be found here, such as toggling shadows, sizes of elements, etc.
