Abstract

In the recent years a growing interest in Collaborative Virtual Environments (CVE) can be observed. Most of these systems use event-object driven architectures for consistent and clear communication inside these systems and in between them. Networked Virtual Reality (VR) applications make heavy use of position tracking data and process a vast amount of transformation matrices during their simulation steps. This observation leads to a novel approach on how communication in Networked Virtual Environments (NVEs) could take place by considering events as well as transformation data to allow for higher responsiveness within Virtual Worlds.
