Easily build cross-platform 3D content through a web browser without having to program. Content from virtual worlds (VR) can be anchored into the real-world (AR) for use with mobile devices and headsets.
Easily build hybrid AR/VR reality mashups where physical and remote users can interact in real-time. Prototypes of all objects are networked to provide a consistent view from any device or platform.
Find nearby content and run programs in the cloud or at the edge on any network-connected device. The ARENA includes fine-grained access control and the ability to sandbox and isolate your content.
Clone an existing scene or build your own in our web interface. It is easy to scan a real-world space from a tablet or laser and upload it into ARENA to share with others. Build interactive content using our Python API.
The ARENA networking platform makes it easy to securely connect headless devices like an RPI to your 3D world. Control devices, create AR displays, and visualize data.
Sharing an ARENA scene is as easy as sending a URL. Open on a desktop browser for a VR experience, open on a phone, tablet or headset for VR/AR experience.
Navigate ARENA with these simple instructions. Use the arrow keys or WASD to “walk” around the environment. Drag the mouse around the screen to “look around”.
ARENA is a framework designed to both simplify and host collaborative multi-user XR applications. It makes it easy to combine virtual and physical components like sensors, actuators, and digital interfaces in an immersive 3D environment.
