Abstract

We present Molecular MR Multiplayer – an interactive, collaborative solution for material design on the edge devices on flat screens and in Mixed Reality (MR) [3]. The application provides a concept of emerging gaming-like remote collaboration experience for researchers, helping explore and design chemical compounds, Both single-user and multi-user modes are implemented. The multi-user mode allows mixed collaborative sessions between local and distant users. A concept of the digital overlays over physical world known as Metaverse is developed.
