Hi Tara,

Is there anywhere that I can see a demo or more detailed explanation of the new features in ThingWorx View?  I'm trying to understand what the deep linking for HoloLens and the hands-free animation playback mean.

Thanks,

Allan

Hi Allan,

Here is some additional information on the new capabilities in View:

- Deep Linking allows direct links to experiences in a HoloLens.

- Hands-free animation is the ability to 'freeze' the camera on mobile devices. This allows the experience viewer to scan the thingmark, freeze the camera, set the device down, and play an animation while having their hands free to follow along. This feature can be utilized by implementing the 'Freeze Camera' & 'Resume Camera' services within the 3D container.
