MRTK-Unity vs. Ping-API vs. VBScript vs. XR SDK Comparison Chart

MRTK-Unity is a Microsoft-driven project that provides a set of components and features, used to accelerate cross-platform MR app development in Unity. Provides the cross-platform input system and building blocks for spatial interactions and UI. Enables rapid prototyping via in-editor simulation that allows you to see changes immediately. Operates as an extensible framework that provides developers the ability to swap out core components. A button control that supports various input methods, including HoloLens 2's articulated hand. Standard UI for manipulating objects in 3D space. Script for manipulating objects with one or two hands. 2D style plane which supports scrolling with articulated hand input. A script for making objects interactable with visual states and theme support. Various object positioning behaviors such as tag-along, body-lock, constant view size, and surface magnetism. Script for laying out an array of objects in a three-dimensional shape.

VBScript is a programming language included with Microsoft Internet Explorer. For other browsers, contact your vendor about support. VBScript 2.0 (or later) is recommended for use with Agent. Although earlier versions of VBScript may work with Agent, they lack certain functions that you may want to use. You can download VBScript 2.0 and obtain further information on VBScript at the Microsoft Downloads site and the Microsoft VBScript site. With VBScript (2.0 or later), you can verify whether Microsoft Agent is installed by trying to create the object and checking to see if it exists. The following sample demonstrates how to check for the Agent control without triggering an auto-download of the control.
