Live IoT Data in Mixed Reality
HoloLens 2 app that pairs a virtual drone with live MQTT sensor streams, showing environmental telemetry beside the physical asset. Domain: Industrial IoT.
The challenge
Field operators reviewing environmental sensor data have to context-switch between dashboards and the physical asset being monitored.
The approach
HoloLens 2 app pairs a virtual drone with live MQTT sensor streams, visualizing environmental telemetry in-world alongside the physical inspection target.
