#Rocketbox 11 review for free
To empower research and academic institutions around the world to further investigate the relationship between people and their avatars and how it affects interactions with others in the virtual world, Microsoft is making the Microsoft Rocketbox library-a collection of 115 avatars representing humans of different genders, races, and occupations-a publicly available resource for free research and academic use. How connected do we feel to our avatars? How realistic are the avatars around us-do they fit the style of the environment, behave how we expect, smile back at us? The believability of our surroundings is enhanced by these representations, which makes exploring answers to questions like these and others important to the continued advancement of the technology. However, how real a VR experience feels is quite dependent on our sense of self-and others-in the virtual world we have entered, an awareness realized in the form of avatars. Today, we can put on a head-mounted display and find ourselves in a completely different world, a virtual one in which the more we explore, the more new environments we can see and hear. Virtual reality technology has become popular in recent years thanks to the availability of more affordable systems. Special care has been taken to reflect diversity in race, gender, and age, as well as attire and professional occupations. With the release of Microsoft Rocketbox as an open-source library, researchers and academics have access to 115 rigged avatars.
