Abstract

Microsoft has recently released a mixed reality headset called HoloLens. This semi-transparent visor headset allows the user who wears it to view the projection of 3D virtual objects placed in its real environment. The user can also grasp these 3D objects, which can also interact with each other. The framework of this new technology taking into account this physical approach (interactions, collisions) is called mixed reality . We had the opportunity to digitally transform a conventional nutrition workshop for patients waiting for bariatric surgery by designing a mixed reality software using the HoloLens headset. This software is called HOLO_NUTRI. In this paper, we present this software and its assessment (acceptance of this technology) by a cohort of thirty patients.
