Described simply as a “metaverse engine”, Neos is a virtual reality collaboration platform that lets you build worlds and experiences in VR itself, right alongside colleagues or friends who can join you remotely.
The team have been busy assembling the core building blocks for NeosVR‘s innovative approach to collaborative workflows, using a highly scaleable object synchronisation methods to let multiple creators come together and enjoy building worlds in the virtual space, even if they live in physically different locations.
NeosVR creator Tomáš ‘Frooxius’ Mariančík says that this latest feature addition represents a turning point in the development of NeosVR. “It is the last, bug, non-visual part of the complex system”, he says, “That means that from now on the updates are going to get a lot more visual as we start focusing on proper UI systems and tool sets.”
