We had gathered assets the days before today. Today we had to publish those assets to the 3D Modeling Google drive folder. Our class supervisor (Ross) asked us to also send him our assets. He asked this so he can review our work, and see if we had trouble with it as well. We also had to publish the assets to our own One Drive accounts so we won’t lose the models we collected/ got.
2/14/17
Today we had to team up with the Q and A team. We had to do this so the 3D Modeling team could know what we should collect from online to put in the HoloLens. We then had to create a mixed reality demo using a 3D Model. After we had to share our files with our supervisor (Ross) so he can once again review our work. Lastly, we saved our files to our One drive account so we won’t lose our work/ progress.

The 3D modeling team looked for different assets that had to do with science and texture. I chose a heart asset and a skeleton asset (there wasn’t really any texture assets so we had to skip that part). After we chose the assets of our liking in the science category, we had to send them to the group google drive to make sure the whole group could see it. Lastly, we had to send the assets to the class’s manager so he can review them, and see whether or not they were good enough.
2/28/17
Today we had to find three final 3D Models. They are final models because our supervisor is going to transfer our assets/ models to the HoloLens. When he does this you will be able to see our 3D Models in the HoloLens. After finding our models we have to make sure they come with Texture, and then we have to upload them to Remix3d.com. Lastly, we had to ask our supervisor what to do next with the designs/ models.
3/1/17
This is one of the 3D Models that we are working with in the 3D Modeling team.
3/2/17
Since on the 28th of February we had to find 3D models with texture it was kind of difficult for us. Most 3D models didn’t have texture, or came with texture that later on was no where to be found. Because we had difficulties with the texture and we didn’t exactly know how to use the Maya application to create texture like we were supposed too. We couldn’t do the following agenda. The first thing we couldn’t do was review and present our models with texture. Then we had to send plain 3D models (plain meaning with no texture) to our supervisor through email. The last thing we couldn’t do was test our 3D models on the HoloLens, since they were not ready to but added to HoloLens.
3/7/17
Today’s agenda was to convert files. We had to convert our 3D modeling files to FBX and STL. So that the texture of the models can be with the models itself instead in a separate file. To do this we used the converter http://www.greentoken.de/onlineconv/. Then we had to share our files with our supervisor (Ross). After that we had to screenshot a picture of what our file was, for example: I had a heart as my FBX file so I had to screenshot a picture of a heart and send it to my group leader Diego.
3/8/17
Today we had to create another OneDrive account. We had to do this so we can place new specific models of a certain genre in that folder. We then had to send this link to our teacher (Ms. Mason), and our supervisor (Ross) through email so they can be on track with the team. Lastly, we prepare to test our models on the HoloLens.
3/10/17
Today I downloaded the Land of Dinosaurs app on the HoloLens. This app allows holographic dinosaurs to walk around the room while the HoloLens tells you everything about the dinosaur presented.
3/13/17
Today I used the HoloLens once again. This time when I used the HoloLens I tested the holograms that were downloaded into the HoloLens. The holograms were all very different, some moved in a never ending loop while others did not move at all. Today I also tested the internet on the HoloLens to see if it would work or not, it did end up working. I also found out there was a holographic keyboard in the HoloLens so you can type in the information you want.
3/15/17
On the 15th I was absent from school, but, my friends told me what we had done in class. The first thing they did was create a organ folder on OneDrive and share it with our supervisor (Ross) and our teacher (Ms. Mason). The second thing they did was find 3D lungs, Heart, Brain, Hand, Foot, and the nervous system. Then they had to use the HoloLens to sign into our teachers OneDrive account using her Microsoft email.
3/16/17
We have to pick 1 to 2 3D models that we have in our OneDrive. Then, we have to upload them to remix 3D and make sure texture comes with it. Lastly, we have to send the files/ links to our supervisor (Ross), and then once again post our files to the teams OneDrive account.
3/20/17
Today I used the HoloLens once again to download more apps. The app I wanted to download was HoloTour, but since the internet was slow I couldn’t fully download it within one class period. Since it was taking so long I decided to pause it to finish the download tomorrow, hopefully it finishes tomorrow! The app seems really cool cause it brings you to places around the world through the HoloLens.
3/21/17
Today I used the HoloLens to finish downloading the app HoloTour, but I also downloaded the heart my 3D model group had created. We have to get a model of the nervous system for the HoloLens. The problem with this was there was no free nervous systems on turbosquid.com. But we then found out we could get the nervous system from google, so that’s what we’re doing.
3/22/17
Today I used the HoloLens once again, but this time I finished downloading HoloTour. When opening the app it brought me to Earth, it then brought me to Machu Picchu in Peru! I also had to go around the room to record everyones task (Ms. Mason’s request).
3/23/17
Today there was a meeting with all the team leaders, we were told to think of ways to incorporate a book into the HoloLens. The book would be a holographic tutorial for the HoloLens.
3/27/17
We were assigned a test today. The test had questions from all different teams, so we had to figure out what every team used or did.
3/28/17
Today we came up with the being of the textbook tutorial for the HoloLens. So what the being is going to look like would be a trapped door appearing on a regular piece of paper that opens with your fingerprint ( there’s going to be a specific place for your fingerprint on the regular piece of paper). When the trapped door opens a 3D brain will come out, your supposed to then click on the brain to start the textbook tutorial. When the brain comes out the slogan “Welcome to the hidden world of HoloLens” is spoken to you!
3/29/17
Today I played the new young conker game on the HoloLens. It was actually pretty fun to play. The only thing is my head and eyes started to hurt after using the HoloLens for a long period of time without taking it off.
3/30/17
We had to view our 3D models in the HoloLens. Then do a ui and intro interface. After that we had to make an account on mixamo.com, this website allows us to create 3D models with adobe. When we sign up we then have to find a brain. Lastly, when we find the brain we have to make it pulsate.
3/31/17
Today I am testing a game out, the game is called fragments. After this I will go on mixamo.com and upload all of my 3D models to it. I will upload them so I can make them move and do certain actions.
4/3/17
Today I was thinking of new things for the textbook tutorial. I then used the HoloLens. While using the HoloLens I learned new facts about our solar system. I also downloaded Mahjong because I wanted to see how it looked through the HoloLens, it looked really nice.
4/4/17
The 3D modeling team has to find a model of a doctor on mixamo.com. We need the model of the doctor so it can talk to the people using the biology textbook. Some of my classmates and I had also made a thank you video explaining why we love the mixed reality world, and saying thank you to people who made donations for High School’s to have HoloLens!!
4/6/17
Today instead of finding a model of a doctor, we were told to find a model similar to ourselves in appearance. This model will be put in the textbook tutorial we are working on. Our voice will also be included so when the person speaks on the HoloLens it will sound like us.
4/7/17
Today I am taking over the manager’s (Izzy) place since I am the assistant manager, and he has to help with the school spelling bee. In class we had a meeting with the group members who are working on the textbook for the HoloLens. In this meeting we went over what the first two pages should look like, and what the box we were given should have on it. Also the 3D modeling group are looking for 3D models that either look like us or we can choose something that we like, such as a tiger or ladybug.
4/19/17
Today we came back from spring break, we were assigned to find 3D models that the Q&A team can use. We also have to still find 3D models that can represent us or that we like to use as the characters speaking on the HoloLens.
This is the 3D model I have chose to represent me.
4/20/17
Today I have to put the Holograms the 3D modeling group chose onto the HoloLens. This was kind of difficult since I never really did it before, so I have to try to figure it out. Unless I ask for help.
4/21/17
I have to download 3D models to the HoloLens from OneDrive. There isn’t a specific topic for the models that are all chosen at random. I also have to change the model that represents me because the website mixamo does not recognize it.
4/24/17
I was going to teach someone from my group how to download Holograms to the HoloLens since I am going on a trip. But, one of my teammates knew how to do it already so I gave them the HoloLens so they can start downloading the Holograms.
4/25/17
We have to find more models for the HoloLens. We also tried out the oculus rift one person at a time. It was pretty cool, it looked fun.
4/27/17
Today the HoloLens had to be updated. I was the one assigned to update the HoloLens, since I use the HoloLens very often (practically everyday).
4/28/17
I updated the last HoloLens. I also got more 3D models for the HoloLens, Monday I should be able to download them to the HoloLens.
5/1/17
I looked at different apps on the HoloLens to see what it looks like. Maybe it will give me an idea of what models to find and upload to the HoloLens. One of the apps I looked at was HoleLenz, HoleLenz allows you to open up portals around the room to a different array of scenery. The portals/ windows almost look like airplane windows (below).
5/2/17
Today I am still looking at different apps to get some ideas for the HoloLens. I’m also downloading some holograms onto the HoloLens. My teammates are finding models for the HoloLens with any website they can find.
5/3/17
I’ve gotten my inspiration from HoloLens apps. I now know what models I should get, so I will get them and download them to HoloLens.
5/8/17
We looked up more Holograms for the HoloLens.
5/9/17
Today we have to look at the Holograms to see if they work through the HoloLens.
5/10/17
I checked to see if the Holograms worked on both the HoloLens (like Ross (the supervisor) told my team to do so).
5/11/17
Today I have to review new models on the HoloLens, as well as download new models to the HoloLens. I also have to get more 3D models from online to put into OneDrive.
5/12/17
My team made an account on Sketchfab.com. We now have to upload models on to our new accounts. We also have to find new models and add them to the OneDrive account so we can view them on the HoloLens.
5/15/17
My team is still finding models for the HoloLens, and we are still downloading models to the HoloLens. The models we find we have to upload to Sketchfab.com as well.
5/16/17
Looking for models for the HoloLens. Also downloading more apps to the HoloLens to see what they do and if they work with the HoloLens.
5/17/17
I downloaded my models to sketchfab.com. I also took a test that was assigned to the whole class. Right now into tomorrow I have to collect the organs and body parts my teammates found so I can give them to Ms. Mason (my teacher).
5/18/17
Today my team and I are getting the code from our models on Sketchfab.com. After we get our code from Sketchfab we are putting it all in one document on Google Docs so we can send it to Ross(Supervisor).
5/19/17
Today my team sent codes from our models to the Front end team. We sent it to them because they made a page on our class’s website that was based on the models the 3D team had found. This page has the code (that turns into video) of our models.
5/22/17
My team is downloading 3D models to OneDrive, so we can download them to the HoloLens.
5/23/17
Today my teammates are adding more models to the front end’s team website. We also have to send the back end team our 3D models folder from google drive, after we send it to team they’re going to transfer our models to Virtual Reality.
5/24/17
I found new models for the Front end teams website and the HoloLens. I got the code from the models to give to the Front end team.
5/25/17
The 3D modeling team is working in Sketchfab.com and mixamo.com.
We are uploading models to both sites so if one site stops working we have them on another site. Tomorrow i’m going to review the new models in the HoloLens to see if they work.
The model I chose is from a video game I play called Alice Madness Returns. This model in 3D form would be an obj. file. The 3D form of the model is 5.5 megabytes. On sketchfab.com it has been favorited once, looked at 32 times and downloaded 3 times.
