Xareus: a Framework to Create Interactive Applications without Coding
Creating interactive XR applications is a complex task. It implies people with different backgrounds which can lead to communication problems and a lot of coding, rarely formalized, that leads to a lack of reusability. Furthermore, the domain expert can not be directly involved in the creation process. Therefore, we propose Xareus<sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">1</sup>, a framework designed to simplify and accelerate the creation of interactive applications with little coding. To help domain experts and developers, Xareus includes several features to make the virtual objects interactive, manage virtual humans, and create a scenario using a graphical interface or VR interaction. Our framework is compatible with Unity Engine<sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">2</sup> and suitable for various fields such as training, video games, or industry. During the demo, the participants will have the opportunity to test these features. A video can be found here: https://youtu.be/iqdU3-202As
