So, what is the Chill Room?
Built using A-frame and JavasScript the ChiLL Room is a Virtual Reality World for you and your friends to hang out at.
Initial Sketches
How could we communicate and interact in a VR environment?
The sketches below are a quick first-draft to convey the main conceptual ideas by me for things that I thought we could do in VR world
A basic idea is that environment should be interactable
This can include interactions such as grabbing and opening a door
We can also include interacting and moving objects such a mug
The customization options should start from the very environment - mountains or cities etc.
Within our room we want to aim for a sense of realism
We can scan and replicate real life items into our virtual world
The VR world should come with mod features so that users can add anything they want to the world
An example could be that users add so many items that eventually they can make a cooking station
You can invite multiple people to make it into a large chat room/meeting hub
Access the menu using your virtual tablet
Final Sketches
How could we communicate and interact in a VR environment?
The sketches below are a a cleaner version of what we envision our final project to look like
We decided on a Christmas themed room
With full movement and WASD+mouse support for desktop users
The VR elements should be interactable
Easily invite friends to join you
They show up as an entity in your room
Enjoy real time interactions with them
Verbally communicate with them using voice chat
The room should have an interactable TV
The TV can play videos or browse the net
Start a watch party and enjoy with your friends
Rotoscope
How could we communicate and interact in a VR environment?
Below are the Rotoscope sketches for how we imaged our room and interactions could be like
You can call your friend bored out of your mind
Your friend (also bored) agrees
You both load up your VR systems
The chill room loads in based on your customization
You can interact with your friend and entertain yourselves however you want
