entire success as well as vision of project. They need to render feedback and make decisions with
respect to implementation of project. With respect to UniSA sponsors will be responsible for
allocating and supplying resources as well as finances to fund the entire project. Students are
interested in this project as they can have new equipments to learn things. It becomes easy to
learn things through simulation. Parents of students are interested in project as their child can
attain the knowledge from professors who are physically not present within UniSA.
OBJECTIVES
With respect to UniSA, their objectives are illustrated below:
 To increase awareness of new technology in students by 10% in the upcoming year.
 To improvise enrolment of students by 15% in next two years.
KEY MESSAGES
Holoportation is a technique which is based on ultramodern mixed reality technology which
is developed by Microsoft. This makes use of three dimensional mapping of entities of real world
for creation of 3D reconstructions that can be compacted as well as transmitted to remote
location through usage of internet. These can be projected within real time by wearing HoloLens
which are provided by Microsoft, through this the sound can be heard as well as interaction can
occur. It will lead UniSA as well as all their stakeholders to fulfill their own interest in this
project.
The key message which is being shared by management of UniSA with their major
stakeholders who are internal is that this technique will provide them with an environment where
students will be able to have guest lecture from experienced professors as well as experts from
the industries, distance or location will not matter, lectures can be projected to online students
within real time and face to face consultation will be provided among students and lecturer
within diverse locations. Apart from this if students face any kind of queries then there entire
session can be recaptured. This will also help employees to gain knowledge with respect to
different subjects or topics and even things which are not within their curriculum. Through this
students will also be able to their internship by being within virtual reality.

External stakeholders will be benefited when project which is planned by organisation then it
will lead them to attract more number of students thereby all the stakeholders will be satisfied
like suppliers will have to supply more number of resources which implies that they can make
large profits. With respect to parents of students, when their child will learn new things and that
also from experienced personalities then there interest will also be accomplished
STRATEGIES AND TACTICS
UniSA is passionate for implementation of 3D Holoportation so that they can ensure sound
future of both organisation as well as students. All the stakeholders will be working in
collaboration so that project can be successful. For carrying out effective communication with
them certain strategies as well as tactics are adopted by UniSA for attracting different
stakeholders towards there project. They are present below:
Survey: It can be carried out to analyse entire impact of Holoportation technique as well as
analyse that how much keen people are towards this technology and what all impact it can have.
Paid medium: This is used by UniSA to make people aware about what they are about to
do. This will be in a form of tender which will be given in either newspapers like an
advertisement and bids will be taken from different suppliers of the entire project. The best can
be used by University so that the technology which they are going use can be successful. For
giving advertisements on newspapers or magazines they pay to certain amount.
Shared media: This might include social mediums like Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn to
communicate with their potential stakeholders and create an impact on them with respect to
features which they are thinking and the manner in which they can be furnished.
IMPLEMENTATION
TIMINGS/ SCHEDULE
The major milestones which will occur within implementation of Holoportation project
are provided below:
Approval of project: IT department of UniSA needs to analyse feasibility as well basic
concepts of systems which must be approved by management. By this project will be
authorized to go to next level along with detailed requirements.

Review of requirements: It is crucial to find out that requirements are completed,
correct, approved as well as apt for input.
Preliminary review: The design needs to be satisfied with respect to all product
requirements like if in one class Holoportation technique is being used then whether the same
lecture can be attended in other classroom, can be viewed in multiple effects like if
Holoportation effect is to the students sitting in right side then is it possible to have same
effects for students who are on left.
Critical review of design: Detailed design along with its architecture will be approved
and effectual input will be taken for development of code.
Test plan review: Create a simulation of plan so that it can be tested, this will lead to
ensure that if same plan is implemented what all effects will be created and whether it will be
successful or not.
System test review: When the test has been passed then actual implementation can be
started and it will be sure that suitable inputs are enough for carrying out its execution.
