In this guide, you will learn how to stream a Hologram from your Hologram Library inside a Unity Project using our SXR Unity Plugin.



**Installation**
You can find the download of the Unity Plugin in your **Web Dashboard**. The plugin is distributed as a zipped folder (.zip). To install the plugin into an existing Unity project, extract the zip file to your Unity project’s Packages directory. Unity will automatically detect the plugin.



**Usage**
In the Unity Editor, you should now be able to see the **SXRWeb Reader folder**. Inside you will find a **“Hologram” prefab** that can be used to play holograms in Unity. Just drag and drop the “Hologram” prefab into your scene.

To Play a hologram, you need to fill in the URL for the published hologram in the parameters of the Hologram script component. You also need to specify the video quality (beware higher = more bandwidth) and your unique Developer License. You can find your Developer License for Plugins in your web Dashboard, just copy and paste in the field.

**Note: When exporting a hologram from Sense XR make sure to activate “Publish for Unity and Unreal Engine” option, otherwise the data won’t run in the engine.**

**Playback the Hologram**
To pause, continue playing or set the play-time, it is possible to directly use the videoPlayer component inside of the Hologram prefab. From here it is also possible to change the audio from global audio to positional audio.

 

**That’s all you need to populate your Unity Project streaming your published holograms from Sense XR. You can build your application for any platform, including Mobile AR and Oculus Quest.**
