Welcome to the Elastic SDK User Guide. Here you will find all the knowledge needed to create truly Elastic Content.
We have prepared a variety of educational formats such as Learning Tracks, How-To Guides, and a Manual that cover a range of basic to advanced features of the ElasticSDK environment. For a coding quick start, take a look into our API Documentation.

At holoride, we’re building nothing less than the platform for the future of in-car entertainment—connecting mobility and media in a way that’s absolutely seamless.
Our vehicle localization software syncs content with the vehicle’s motion, position, and map data in real time—creating an entirely new level of immersion. You start to feel what you see!
At the same time, this real-time synchronization can actually reduce motion sickness, enabling more passengers to enjoy visual content in cars. We call this new content category for vehicles Elastic Content—the word “elastic” reflects the content’s adaptive behavior and nonlinear characteristics, which allow passengers to enjoy constantly changing experiences that adjust to their route.
Spotlight - Learning Tracks
Getting Started
This Learning Track teaches you step by step how to add the Elastic SDK to your Unity project and how to build for the target hardware. Learn how to setup a minimal scene, about the Elastic Graph system and several test scenarios, including file playback of recorded vehicle sensor data.
Get Started
World Creation
The Elastic SDK offers a powerful node graph system to gather map data as well as artificial and real world points of interest. Learn how to process them to distill important information about the vehicle's surroundings and define rules on how the virtual environment is generated at runtime. This Learning Track is a deep dive from node descriptions to terrain generation.
Get Procedural
Code (Preview)
The Elastic SDK ships with a comprehensive API to support the developer with access to the holoride tech stack needed to create dedicated elastic experiences. Learn how to use and expand this API.
Get UpgradedHow-To
Due to its procedural nature, Elastic Content creation requires knowledge of suited implementation strategies and workflows. Learn best practices from our focused blog-like instructions.
