MIT Reality Hack 2022 - Metahack
#webrtc #unity #web #webxr
MetaHack - a library based on WebRTC to communicate between Unity and WebXR.
Developed as part of Hacking the Hack (HTH) and the remote MIT Reality Hack (MRH) session, this project aimed to enhance the interoperability of XR experiences as the foundation for the metaverse. Unlike the MRH, which was competitive in nature, HTH focused on the future of hackathons. The first theme, Hybrid Hacks, aimed to find ideas for improving the hybrid aspect of upcoming hackathons. The second theme, A Collaborative Metaverse of Hacks, sought to enable different projects to interact with each other. My idea was to provide a common library that would facilitate communication between projects.
Unfortunately, I spent an extra day fixing bugs on the Unity side and the library didn't have time to be integrated into the projects. However, considering its potential, I plan to continue developing it so that it can be used in future hackathons and XR projects (including even just Unity/Web).
