Greetings Metaverse Working Group!

It’s been a while since we met, but virtual reality continues to advance at a rapid pace. We are reinvigorating the group this year with a focus on real time collaborative applications of VR - the plan is to hold each monthly meeting in a different VR collaboration platform.

While some platforms are accessible outside VR, others are not, so we are hoping that group members will be able to beg, borrow, or steal a VR headset at least once a month. We will strive to select collaboration tools that support all VR systems, but specifically the HTC Vive, Oculus Rift, Windows Mixed Reality systems, and where possible, phone/mobile based systems such as Oculus Go and Samsung GearVR.

The following is a proposed schedule of meetings and platforms - the platforms may shift but we’ll try to stick to the meeting dates.

1st Tuesday of the month, from 3:00 - 4:00 PM EST

February 5: Altspace

*March 12: Engage

April 2: VRChat

May 7: InsiteVR

June 4: Mozilla Hubs

*July 9: Rumii

August 6: RecRoom

September 3: MeetinVR

October 1: vSpatial

November 5: TBD - have a suggestion?

December 3: TBD - have a suggestion?

* Meeting date changed to accommodate schedule conflicts

Prior to each meeting we will send out instructions for the new platform. We’re looking forward to reconnecting with everyone!

- Chris
