Mixed Reality: Zero to Hero in 30 min

By Srushtika Neelakantam

Elevator Pitch

This talk will be a quick run-through of the Mixed Reality (MR) concepts, i.e both Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR), but specifically from a web developer’s perspective.

Description

Even though MR is graphics-heavy, modern open-source libraries like WebVR, AFrame VR and Web XR make it really easy for a web developer working with HTML and JavaScript, to follow through and use existing tools to start building useful Mixed Reality applications that can be accessed on the web. We’ll close the talk with a demo and behind-the-scenes of how it’s built. Bonus: Tools and resources to use in your MR apps and practical applications of MR.
