ABOUT

What is XRSynthesis?

XRSynthesis is a general-purpose XR framework based on Unity, developed by FrameSynthesis Inc. It comes with the foundations XR apps need, such as multiplayer, avatars, and content delivery. We use it for our own and commissioned projects, and also license the source code.

01

Multi-platform

Build for Meta Quest, web browsers, Windows, iPhone, Android, and more from a single project.

02

Multiplayer

Connect over the internet with Photon, or sync over a local network at venues without internet access. Voice chat is supported.

03

Spatial alignment

Align everyone's virtual space to the real room with QR codes (image markers) or shared anchors, even across different devices such as Quest and iPhone.

04

Spatial Theater

A system for several people in the same space to experience XR content together. Play, pause, and chapter jumps are synced for everyone, with an operator control screen.

05

Avatars

Load VRM and other avatars, with full-body IK, name plates, and body size correction.

06

Content delivery

Deliver worlds and content from a server, so you can update them without rebuilding the app.

SCENES

How we offer it

Details vary from case to case, so please contact us. At the moment, providing XRSynthesis outside Japan is challenging because of our limited experience with overseas business, but we are exploring ways to make it possible.

1

Commissioned development

We use XRSynthesis as the framework when we develop for you. It works like standard commissioned development.

2

Source code license

We share the project on GitHub for a set period and support the introduction. Your Unity engineers can modify and use it freely. You can review the project before licensing, and we provide development support as needed.
