This project integrates Microsoft's LUIS API into Unity for Natural Language understanding in HoloLens applications. The HoloLens portion of the code was adapted from the HoloToolkit code from Microsoft https://github.com/Microsoft/HoloToolkit-Unity. The LUIS API in the sample folder is using the ALIEBot API (https://github.com/KatVHarris/ALIEbot) that answers questions about the show The 100.

To set up dictation and LUIS drag the revised DictationController (aka Communicator) and LUISManager_Hololens prefabs into your scene. They can be found as Prefabs in the Holograms folder.

• Create Inspector attribute to plug-in any LUIS library
• Create Sample Scene Folder and Sample Scene

A blog post about getting HoloLens Speech and Dictation working with LUIS can be found here: http://bit.ly/HoloLUIS

A blog post about the project can be found here: http://katvharris.azurewebsites.net/blog/unity-luis-json/ Currently integrated with LUIS.ai API for ALIEbot. The user can currently type request to get back infromation about a character. Next step is to use Voice Commands to Trigger LUIS calls.

07/05/16 Currently looking into Hololens and UAP Speech to Text API. Currently there is a listener to trigger certain commands in Hololens, but those are one word solutions, we want a more robust natural language processing to interact with a bot framework.

Acessing LUIS directly can also be an option - EXAMPLE: Making a HTTP request to the LUIS endpoint https://api.projectoxford.ai/luis/v1/application?id=a287f18f-4ae3-4346-b712-2bb9468f81c2&subscription-key=f2b59c258e5042a3b265498b92acd8a8&q=tell%20me%20about%20Clarke

This will return a JSON object that can be read for the next command.

07/03/16 Built Unity Project with the Hololens settings and tried integrating the Microsoft.Bot.Builder into the project. Errors occured: Microsoft.Bot.Builder 1.2.5 is not compatible with UAP,Version=v10.0. Potential Solution - Downgrade UAP version? (This might cause errors for Unity and Hololens) Potential Solution - Wait for Bot Builder to be upgraded Potential Solution 3 - Use the Node.js SDK to create a server for Unity to ping and access.

Currently is a simple bubble pop game.

Using the #WIN_UWP tag for UWP specific code, aka calling the bot framework. This tag spins off a seperate thread to handle UWP specific API calls. Will need to return from this thread to the Unity Thread if we want to implement Chain Dialogs.

• Input - Gaze, Tap, Voice
• Shared - Multiplayer interactions
