Holos Foundry

Holos Foundry is the compute layer that turns a 3D model into a trackable object: the reference descriptor that lets Holos Capture recognize a specific real-world object and follow its position throughout a session. Building a reference object is a heavy, Apple-toolchain-only job: it can take many hours per object and has to run on a Mac. Foundry is the managed fabric that runs that work, a fleet of Macs (runners) that pull queued jobs, train the reference object, and upload the result back so the object flips to Trackable in your Objects library. For most organizations this happens automatically on Holos-operated infrastructure and needs no setup. Foundry becomes visible to your team when you run dedicated runners: either capacity we manage on your behalf, or Macs your own organization operates.

Why a dedicated Foundry

​

How it fits together

1. Someone on your team enables object tracking for an object, choosing a view mode and training mode. This creates a training job.
2. The job lands in the Foundry queue as Queued.
3. An available runner claims the job, downloads the source model, and trains the reference object locally on its Mac.
4. The runner streams progress back while it works, then uploads the finished reference object.
5. The object’s Trackable field flips to Yes and it becomes available in Holos Capture.

The whole flow is anchored in your Objects library: you request tracking there, and Foundry is what fulfills it. See Object tracking for the request side.
