Collabovr: A Reconfigurable Framework For Creative Collaboration in Virtual Reality

CollaboVR is a reconfigurable framework for creative collaboration in virtual reality. It allows users to sketch in real-time and collaboratively convert sketches into interactive animations. The researchers designed custom user arrangements (side-by-side, face-to-face, hybrid) and input modes (direct, projection). They evaluated CollaboVR quantitatively and qualitatively. The framework is open-sourced to support further collaboration applications in virtual reality.

The best layout and interaction mode?
Research Questions:
- Design: What if we could bring sketching to real-time collaboration in VR?
- Design + Evaluation: If we can convert raw sketches into interactive
animations, will it improve the performance of remote collaboration?
- Evaluation: Are there best user arrangements or input modes for different
use cases, or is it more a question of personal preferences
