OVERVIEW
The first project I was given upon arriving into my contract with Microsoft Analog R&D, was with a small team responsible for creating some of the first “holograms” for the first HoloLens.

---

PROBLEM
I was given the task of creating low-poly, photo-realistic, real-world furniture, and “x-ray hologram” styled 3D exploded cutaways. We were developing for a constantly moving target performance, as specs we continuously changing. When all was said and done, we were able to define a poly-budget of 750, and a diffuse texture, one-pass shader.

---

APPROACH
Having over 25+ years of modeling and texturing real-world objects, I was high-skilled and had the production pipeline down. I was able to mentor two other junior artists, sharing best real-time practices and workflows.

I leveraged the Quixel Suite to achieve the fabric and leather textures, and overlaid the 3D wireframes generated in the UV’s upon a stylized “holographic-blue” texture.

RESULTS
These “holograms” were designed to be used as part of the Holograms Viwer app that HoloLens users would be able to place and interact within their Mixed Reality environment.
