MindArk's client required a unique platform that would allow professionals to host meetings in Virtual Reality (VR) instead of using traditional telephone or video conference. The platform needed to support multiple users, up to 100, from different locations, and provide a realistic representation of the users through customizable avatars. The platform also needed to support different VR devices including Oculus, HTC Vive, Google Daydream, Samsung Gear VR, and traditional devices like iOS, Android, Windows, and OS X. Additionally, the platform needed to integrate with Google Account and Google Drive to operate with materials stored on the Drive such as PPT, Video, etc. The challenge also included creating a 3D positional / Voice proximity so users could see and hear surrounding objects/users as realistically as possible, and tracking the user’s hands and speech and synchronize it with the avatar’s lips and body language.
