VRTogether项目开发了一个用于远程通信和协作的社交VR平台。用户的超现实表示，如体积视频，允许在虚拟环境中与他人进行自然交互。这段视频展示了其中一个用例，一个逃生室风格，远程用户需要协作解决一个谋杀之谜。体验发生在受害者的公寓里，警察团队（化身）与多达四个实时捕获的用户（点云）一起，作为一个团队寻找线索，并得出关于受害者发生了什么以及谁是罪犯的结论。这种体验包括一个交互层，使用户能够通过触摸物体与环境交互，并与角色交谈。它还允许在公寓的房间之间导航。这种体验提供了沉浸感和社会联系，用户是故事的主角，分享虚拟环境并遵循叙事。虚拟现实环境（空间和角色）与实时立体视频会议的新技术相结合，在医疗保健、广播和游戏等多个领域实现了独特的新体验。
The VRTogether project has developed a Social VR platform for remote communication and collaboration. The hyper-realistic representation of users, as volumetric video, allows for natural interaction in a virtual environment with others. This video shows one of the use cases, an escape room style, where remote users need to collaboratively resolve a murder mystery. The experience takes place in the victim’s apartment where the police team (avatars) together with up to four real-time captured users (point clouds), work as a team to find clues and come up with a conclusion about what happened to the victim and who was the criminal. This experience includes a layer of interaction, enabling the users to interact with the environment, by touching objects, and to talk to the characters. It also allows for navigating between the rooms of the apartment. The experience provides immersion and social connectedness, where users are protagonists of the story, sharing the virtual environment and following the narrative. The combination of virtual reality environments (space and characters) with novel technologies for real-time volumetric video conferencing enables unique new experiences in a number of areas such as healthcare, broadcasting, and gaming.
