A mobile game SDK for remote collaborative between two users in augmented and virtual reality

Abstract

Remote collaboration is important in Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) that allow users to communicate and interact with each other. Mobile games are gaining its popularity due to its portability and lower in cost. Software Development Kit (SDK) allows developer to speed up the development process. However, most of the collaboration of these technologies only focus on either AR or VR independently. Besides, most AR and VR that had been developed are only available in expensive devices but not in mobile devices. Therefore, this research aims to create a remote collaboration between AR and VR with mobile games. There are four phases have been carried out, analysis phases, development phase, construction phase and evaluation phase. The evaluation has been performed and it is based on the usability and user acceptance. The usability results show the application is accepted by the user. User acceptance results show the application works accordingly. Based on the results, this research has successfully produced a working SDK for remote collaboration between AR and VR with mobile games.
