Virtual Makerspaces: Merging AR/VR/MR to Enable Remote Collaborations in Physical Maker Activities
Iulian Radu, Tugce Joy, Bertrand Schneider
Abstract
We present a mixed-reality system for remote collaborations, where collaborators can discuss, explore, create and learn about 3D physical objects. The system combines Hololens augmented reality, 3D Kinect cameras, PC and virtual reality interfaces, into a virtual space that hosts remote collaborators, and physical & virtual objects.
