Ordering the Hololens
On our meeting at 12/01 we agreed to purchase a
Hololens to start the development of the project. I wrote about the software
requirements and different versions of the Hololens.
Warranty:
Other
countries:
Microsoft designs and manufactures
its products for global sale; however, country-specific testing, certification,
marking, and an appropriate power adapter may be required prior to device use.
Microsoft does not assume legal responsibility for products that are
transported into countries where its products have not been certified for sale,
distribution or use. Microsoft recommends that developer purchasers check local
power adapter and radio frequency requirements before using Microsoft products
in jurisdictions where they have not been certified for sale, distribution
or use.
Note: We will probably need a power adapter if we order from New York.
Hololens pricing:
HoloLens Development Edition = 3000$
HoloLens Commercial Suite = 5000$
Note: I don’t think the commercial suit is needed for us, it comes with
extra device management and more security (check out under commercial suit
-> enterprise features down below). The hardware (Hololens itself) is the
same between the two versions.
Box (what you get when
ordered):
Microsoft HoloLens Development Edition
Clicker
Carrying case
Microfiber cloth
Charger
Micro-USB 2.0 cable
Note: This is the same for both Hololens
editions.
Software and hardware
prerequisites
Software
Windows 10 pro (to run the emulator)
Visual
Studio 2015 Update 2 (Community Edition)
Windows 10 SDK (if you didn’t already install it with Visual Studio 2015)
Note: I am currently installing all the required software.
Hardware
Note: My laptop specifications are good enough to develop for the Hololens.
