The XRScaleKit is a collection of projects and concepts that resulted in a toolkit for scalable XR development. The NewMedia Centre XR Zone frequently encountered issues in network, authentication and hosting etc. while building and scaling up XR applications, which led to the initiation of various MediaLab projects to address these challenges.
The journey began in 2019 with a project named “Classroom Controller,” which was designed to empower teachers with better control over larger groups in virtual reality (VR) environments. This was followed in 2022 by the “App-Manager” project, which focused on managing XR applications on a server to streamline application installation and version control.
Between these two key projects, several other solutions were developed, gradually leading to the concept of creating a reusable toolkit. We are now excited to share our progress on the XRScaleKit, a comprehensive toolkit designed to accelerate our XR development and enhance its scalability in education.
