HoloLens Video Streaming
07 Feb 2017There have been lots of discussion about streaming on HoloLens. Here is a demo of my implementation.
Demo
This is the soccer match between Barcelona and Atlético Madrid today. The screen on the right is the real monitor, and the left one is a virtual screen showing streamed video. The application runs at a reasonably frame rate and resolution (20fps with 896x594 frame resolution). Video is taken via HoloLens Device Portal.
Implementation
This application is implemented using the following toolset:
On PC
- Epiphan DVI2USB 3.0 and its SDK
- Python for
