Features
Colibri focuses on three key areas:
- Low Barrier: Setup and Development is as simple as possible, with little to no configuration/code required.
- Multi-Platform: Colibri (currently) supports synchronization between Unity and Web
- Lab Conditions: XR Research prototypes often benefit from ideal lab conditions, allowing Colibri to focus on low latency and high throughput (at the cost of potential bandwidth savings and some performance).
Please see the folders for more specific information: Unity - Web (JS/TS) - Server
