Virtual Worlds & Applications
For virtual reality & desktop
Vircadia™ is an open-source 3D interface and server foundation that allows for vast social & educational platforms to be created and lived in while also being shared in real-time with others.
Virtual Realities for one, for all.
Meet People & Make Friends
In Vircadia, there are people that you can meet, chat, and play with from every corner of the globe in VR or desktop!
Use Custom Avatars
Whether it’s anime, human, anthropomorphic, or something completely original of your creation!
Create Your Own Worlds
Whether it’s a home, a venue, a city, or something in between… with Vircadia you have the largest building space of any metaverse engine. (16 km^3)
Host Events
From large expos and events to small get-togethers like movie night, this is the perfect place to meet in your own custom world or a pre-existing meeting world!
Mainstays of Metaverse
3D Spatial Audio
All voice audio in Vircadia is spatialized by default. Have a chat or experience concerts as they are meant to be heard!
FLOSS + DECENTRALIZED
Unlike most platforms, Vircadia is 100% decentralized with the full software stack necessary for a premium metaverse experience under Apache 2.0. Because of this, all aspects of the project can be customized.
Flexibility
All building and scripting of your world happens in realtime. This means that you and your friends can shape it live around you, together.
More Platforms
Windows, Linux, OSX
Vircadia works on many devices and platforms. You do not need a VR headset to create and enjoy social VR; you can use one when and however you see fit.
