HoloLens concept lets you control your smart home via augmented reality

6e0f5ecb77b8f7a817569dfcef5a0f09“The primary goal of the app is to provide a 3D spatial UI for cross-platform devices — Android Music Player app and Arduino-controlled Fan and Light — and to interact with them using gaze and gesture control,” Ian Sterling, a design student at California College of the Arts, told Digital Trends.

Our demo featured a connection between a music player and a light in order to set a certain mood in your home.”

While the so-called IoTxMR concept is just a demo, Sterling thinks it signals the way our interactions with smart devices need to go.  “I feel that in order for smart devices to be less obtrusive, while at the same time becoming more robust in functionality, new forms of interaction will be a requirement,” he continues.
