This video explains the importance of thorough project planning and how it guides subsequent phases effectively, ensuring alignment with project goals and end-user needs. The following items were discussed in detail:

1. Project Planning Document Overview:

   • Introduction to the non-editable project planning document used for detailed planning of augmented reality projects.

2. Content Planning:

   • Emphasis on the importance of asking specific questions during project planning to guide subsequent phases effectively.
   • Explanation of the three content-related slides and their significance.

3. Project Summary:

   • Identification of the equipment involved (genetic analyzer 3130 XL) and noting relevant subsystems (oven, PDP system, vial tray).
   • Connection to content preparation by specifying subsystems for CAD models and additional content preparation.

4. Processes and Procedures:

   • Detailed noting of specific instructions and procedures to be included in the AR experience.
   • Granular planning for non-linear exploration (overview), training sequences (safety orientation, starting procedure, water trap flushing), and graded assessments.

5. Content Summary:

   • Identifying available content resources such as CAD or 3D models, detailed process descriptions, and the need for additional media like videos.
   • Recognition of the need to prepare content before authoring.

6. Goals:

   • Clarification of the project's specific impacts, focusing on knowledge retention and potential secondary goals like reducing errors.
   • Connection between goals and authoring style decisions to align with the desired outcomes.

7. Target Audience:

   • Understanding the end user's knowledge level and tailoring content and style accordingly.
   • Impact of the target audience on emphasizing different elements of the AR experience.

8. Viewing Devices:

   • Recognition of the devices used to view the AR experience, with a focus on Hololens' unique UI capabilities.
   • Consideration of processing power and memory for content optimization.

9. Location:

   • Relevance of internet connectivity and environmental factors (e.g., noise level) in determining content elements like audio.
   • Consideration of challenges in alignment, especially in varying lighting conditions.

10. Viewing Mode:

    • Discussion of rendering modes, distinguishing between device mode and standalone mode.
    • Impact on how the AR content is presented and experienced by the end user.

11. Timeline and Notes:

    • Internal considerations for project management, timeline, and specific targets for project completion.
