Figmin XR features a colocation system for headsets to unlock same-room multiplayer as well as emergent remote interactions.
The way to make it happen is to understand this “Scene Center” menu:
That purple thing that says “Grab here”? The purple thing that says “Grab here”? Do the exact same thing with another VR headset that runs Figmin XR. Place the blue pad at the exact same location and in the same direction. Join the same multiplayer. All the settings in the headsets should be positioned at the same distance from the anchor of the blue pad on the ground. It’s easy to line up the blue pads in the Figmin XR with the 3S and Vision Pro, but it can be difficult to achieve. Once synced up well, though, I turned the 3S into a mixed reality camera, pointing it at my play area while capturing what a Vision Pro and Quest 3 each make in the room.
Rewiring How You Think About Space
Having two, three or even more headsets sharing a reference point means that when Don Hopper joined the Figmin room remotely, we could tour each other’s spaces by simply walking from room to room. I outlined the shape of his TV and then walked across his large Missouri home to get to his office. Then, in New York I used Tilt Brush to outline the shape of my television. His head was a bright blue oval, and I heard him describe the room in which he passed. It was just enough detail to start making a mental map of Don’s house and workspace.
Figmin XR Supports Colocated Multiplayer Between Quest 3 & Apple Vision Pro
Creative sandbox Figmin XR supports colocated mixed reality from Apple Vision Pro to Quest 3.
Some apps have offered similar features for years and on some Quest headsets, anchor-sharing is automatic. Space Pirate Trainer uses the
Space Pirate Trainer for its arena-scale multiplayer. The $20 tool is the only one that we are aware of with this robust support for so many headsets. You should be able to colocate a Quest 3S, 3 and 2 with a Vision Pro and assorted other devices, making for tens of millions of opportunities to put multiple people in the same creative Figmin sandbox together.
Whether your investment in multiple standalone VR headsets is $500 or $4000, Figmin XR’s menu here is the key to putting 3D objects, Tilt Brush works, voxel objects, YouTube videos and gifs all over the house such that when another headset joins the digital room, they’ll be able to make sense of where you spend your time in your physical room relative to your digital creations.same ideaColocation unlocks a lot of opportunities to explore a range of ideas to think about for the future. You can outline your home so that a friend who is far away could place funny gifs on the dining table. We’d love to see what others do with their implementations.release for Apple Vision ProFind Figmin XR on your platform of choice from
