This could be a new beginning of the eco-system that develops mixed-reality apps and games. Object Theory is a software development agency focused on the creation of mixed reality applications for Microsoft HoloLens. Object Theory is founded by Michael Hoffman, a Principal Engineering Lead from the Microsoft HoloLens Studios team and Raven Zachary, a successful mobile entrepreneur who sold his mobile development company to Walmart. They will help organizations design, develop, and launch mixed reality applications for Microsoft HoloLens. They will be business-focused – enterprise, vertical markets, and brand opportunities. While gaming and entertainment will be a big area of opportunity for HoloLens, they are focusing on the business needs of the technology.
