This tool aims at gathering different types of resources under the large scope of XR, in a common and shared space, accessible both via a summary “Maps of contents” and a visual “Graph”. Tools, channels, softwares, hardwares, networks, metaverses, and many more are to be found right here!… Nourished by the XR experts, artists & passionates/enthusiasts of the #RIT community, this database aims at giving a rich and comprehensive overview of the resources gathered throughout the Realities in Transitions project, pursuing the goal of pooling and sharing existing knowledge as a panorama of the XR Ecosystem, according to our values. # How to navigate In order to ease access and discovery of relevant resources to you, this database offers three means of navigation : [[#Maps of contents]], [[#Graph]], and a [[#PDF File for LLM chats]]. ## PDF File for LLM chats As AI usage is on the rise, we provide a pdf compiled with all the resources of this database so you can feed it to the Large Language Model of your choice and discuss directly with the AI. You can find it here : [[Compiled database]]. ## Maps of contents These macro-notes aggregate links to several other resources sharing a common ground. That common ground can be a typology of resources (softwares, hardwares, platforms), a theme (XR & Performing arts, sustainability, open-source innovation) or a reality (VR, AR...). ### Categories [[Books]] ; [[Communities and organizations]] ; [[Hardware]] ; [[Platforms]] ; [[Software - for creation]] ; [[Software - to experience]] ; [[Studies and academic papers]] ; [[Online courses]] ; [[Media]] ; [[Podcasts]] ; [[Artworks]] ; [[Dissemination Channels]] ### Realities [[AR — Augmented Reality]] ; [[MR — Mixed Reality]] ; [[VR — Virtual Reality]] ; [[XR — Extended Reality (general)]] ### Thematics [[3D creation]] ; [[AI assets generation]] ; [[Motion capture]] ; [[Open source]] ; [[Public space]] ; [[Virtual worlds]] ; [[XR and Performing Arts]] ; [[Digital Arts]] ; [[UX Design]] ## Graph This database is a hyperlink rich environment (powered by [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md/)) composed of text files. Through thoughtful linking, each page is accompanied by a local graph showing immediate relations to other projects or thematics. The global graph offers a bird-eyes view of all the links in the database, allowing to visually estimate connections between topics of interest. You can access the global graph by clicking on the icon on the top-right corner of the Interactive Graph (local graph).
