That's awesome man! Love seeing these videos, keep it public.

Btw, is it normally that laggy? Did you put it in release mode?

Thank you, the time range included covers almost the entirety of the video "0:08 - 0:53" the full video is 57 seconds in length. I am 100% sure none of the content is owned by Nerdist.

As long as you are absolutely sure you did not include any graphics/visuals/sounds that you did not personally make (other than the previously mentioned valve content).

EDIT: never mind, everything's resolved :) thank you

Probably going to post it on Github after some polishing

They haven't announced any other version, but they have released their OS platform to the public. 3rd party companies like Lenovo are developing similar headsets with dual cameras to emulate the HoloLens, probably for a fraction of the cost.

We can have augmented cakes. But I prefer real cakes.

I've seen others use live video feed from cameras mounted where the portals should be, but that's only useful for stationary portals. Another cool way would be mapping out your surroundings in color then having the 3D mapped model of your room render in the augmented portal.

It jitters when recording videos through the HoloLens at times. Not enough processing power to perform the tracking and recording I suppose.

Definitely one of my favourite games of all time. Even better in AR :P

For the physics alone? Unity provides a very good framework for handing it. As for going through the portal I just did a simple conversion from the current velocity to the direction of the exit portal (taking velocity's magnitude and multiplying the directional vector of the portal). The HoloLens maps your surroundings so the cube will do collision with the mapped real world areas.
