Virtual reality (VR) can be especially magical if you're using it to create art in thin air. But Drew Gottlieb, a software developer studying computer science at the Rochester Institute of Technology, realized that if one person is creating 3D art using virtual reality, it's not much fun for the other friends in the room: they're only able to see what's being created by taking a look at a rather distorted view, on a computer monitor, of the other person's perspective. Microsoft recently released development kits of their mixed-reality HoloLens glasses, and Gottlieb used a few of these units to make a proof of concept for people to use mixed reality to share in another person's VR experience. His shared reality system, called the HoloViveObserver, runs on a VR system called the HTC Vive, which comes with two postionally-tracked controllers, and uses the HoloLens to search for the VR environment, and aligns it with the Vive environment, using both a physical Vive controller and a virtual one.
