HoloLens in Vehicles: Moving Platform Mode
summary
Moving Platform Mode lets HoloLens 2 track correctly inside moving vehicles by fusing the headset IMU with four tracking cameras and adding vehicle motion states; it offers three enablement paths (Unity API, MDM, device settings) and a 20‑second averaging down direction or a persistent manual down vector. Demos show reliable use on ships (designed up to Sea State 4 tested, internal tests at Sea State 2), cars, trains, trams and planes in cruise, but deliver slight high‑frequency wobble, hand‑momentum input errors and map corruption when repeatedly moving floors.
