WebMR is a new technology which is in its initial stages. WebMR was the thing which has brought a huge participation at Baroda.
Everyone was eagerly waiting for us. Event started with a brief introduction of the speakers. Prathamesh Chavan and I talked about our love to open source.
Prathamesh talked about the differences of WebVR WebAR and WebMR. His way of relating things to virtual girlfriend has brought a new spark in attendees.
I talked about basics of Virtual reality and why we have brought the VR on Web. And how easy it is to code and experience the same.
Lunch time, we went to Nosh Farmaiye, best place in town for chicken kebabs. Must place to visit when you’re in town.
After the lunch we started the hand-on session of WebVR . And to do so nothing is better than a hello world example. We have used glitch to live demo the scenes.
First day concluded with the prize distribution to the top 5 teams.
Second day started with WebAR, I explained the differences and similarities in AR and VR. Here again started with hello world example using hero marker.
And talked about new features of AR and VR.
Definitely one day we would do a full session on WebMR.
