Welcome to /r/MixedReality!

Reddit's community dedicated to Mixed Reality projects and products!

Mixed reality (MR), sometimes referred to as hybrid reality (encompassing both augmented reality and augmented virtuality), refers to the merging of real and virtual worlds to produce new environments and visualizations where physical and digital objects co-exist and interact in real time. Not taking place only in the physical world or the virtual world, but a mix of reality and virtual reality, encompassing augmented reality and augmented virtuality.

How Mixed Reality promotes Fitness

The beauty of MR gaming lies in its ability to seamlessly combine physical movement with digital play. Unlike regular video games that often encourage sitting for hours, MR games require players to move, dodge, jump, and interact with the game’s environment.

  1. Gamified Exercise: MR games transform fitness into an entertaining experience by gamifying workouts. Players are often unaware they’re exercising because they’re focused on achieving game-based goals.
  2. Interactive Movements: Whether it’s swinging a virtual sword, performing squats to avoid obstacles, or dancing to hit targets, MR games demand full-body engagement.
  3. Fitness-Focused Games: Many MR games are specifically designed to promote exercise. For example, fitness platforms like Supernaturalinclude choreographed workouts, while games like Beat Saber encourage fast-paced movement that feels more like a dance party than a workout.

By making exercise fun and immersive, MR gaming addresses one of the biggest barriers to fitness—boredom.

What is Vital Knights? A Quick Overview

Imagine stepping into a fantasy world where you’re a hero guided by elemental Guardians, each with unique powers, and the battles require your real-world movement. Vital Knights takes the best of RPGs, VR experiences, and fitness games to create a dynamic and engaging adventure.This isn’t just a game—it’s an experience that bridges the gap between the digital and physical worlds. Using mixed reality, Vital Knights immerses players in a fantasy realm while encouraging physical exercise, making it both fun and functional.

Unique Features That Make Vital Knights Stand Out

1. Elemental Guardians and Their Distinct Abilities

At the heart of Vital Knights lies its rich cast of elemental Guardians. These characters guide you on your journey and provide unique abilities, like fire attacks, water shields, or air-based agility. Players can customize their Guardians’ powers to suit their playstyle, making every quest feel personal.

2. Mixed Reality: The Gaming-Fitness Bridge

While traditional VR games focus purely on immersion, Vital Knights uses mixed reality to blend gameplay with your surroundings. You’ll dodge attacks, swing virtual swords, and solve puzzles—all while moving your body. The result? A game that feels alive and keeps you active.

3. Physical Fitness Integration

Gone are the days of mindlessly sitting on the couch for hours. Vital Knights tracks your movements and integrates them into gameplay. Think fitness tracking meets fantasy adventure—where your squats power your Guardian’s shields and your lunges unleash devastating attacks. Who said working out couldn’t be fun?

Why Gamers Are Buzzing About Vital Knights

1. A Unique Take on Fitness and Gaming

Unlike typical fitness games that feel repetitive, Vital Knights immerses you in a story-driven adventure. Players aren’t just completing exercises—they’re saving kingdoms, battling foes, and solving puzzles.

2. Inclusive Gameplay for All Levels

Whether you’re a fitness newbie or a seasoned athlete, Vital Knights offers adjustable difficulty settings. You can jump into high-intensity battles or take it slow with lighter challenges.

3. Social Integration

The game includes multiplayer options, so you can team up with friends or compete in leaderboard challenges. Share your progress, discuss strategies, and celebrate victories together.

Why Mixed Reality Games Are the Future of Fitness (and Why Your Treadmill Is Jealous)

Let's face it, traditional workouts are boring. Running in place on a treadmill? Meh. Endless burpees? Double meh. But what if getting fit felt more like slaying dragons, solving puzzles, or dancing your way to victory? Enter Mixed Reality Games – where fitness meets fun, and your workout feels less like a chore and more like an epic adventure.

🎮 What’s Mixed Reality Anyway?

Imagine this: You’re wearing a sleek headset, gripping controllers (or just moving your body), and you’re transported into a hybrid world where physical reality blends seamlessly with digital magic. Think battling monsters in your living room or climbing virtual mountains while dodging obstacles. It’s fitness, but make it FUN.

🏃‍♀️ Why It Works (Spoiler: It's Addictive)

  1. No More "Ugh, Do I Have to?" Say goodbye to dragging yourself to the gym. Mixed Reality Games trick your brain into thinking you’re playing, not exercising. It’s all fun and games until—oops—you just did 100 squats chasing a virtual villain.
  2. Goal-Oriented Fitness Completing quests, unlocking achievements, or beating high scores makes workouts ridiculously rewarding. Plus, bragging rights are a great motivator.
  3. Customizable Challenges Whether you’re a beginner or a fitness beast, games adapt to your level. Want to sweat buckets or just take it slow? There’s a mode for that.
  4. Social + Solo Options Connect with friends (or strangers) and crush multiplayer challenges or go solo for some “me time.” Either way, it’s way better than feeling lonely on a treadmill.

🚀 What’s the Future Look Like?

The fitness industry is shifting. Instead of memberships to a gym, we’re seeing subscriptions to interactive worlds. With tech evolving, expect haptic feedback suits (feel every hit!), enhanced environments, and even smarter AI to tailor workouts specifically for YOU.

💪 Why You Should Join the Revolution

Mixed Reality isn’t just a trend; it’s a movement. It’s where gaming becomes your gym and fitness becomes FUN. So ditch the dumbbells (well, keep them for now) and strap on that headset. Your body (and inner child) will thank you.

🌟 Are you ready to game your way to a healthier you? Let’s hear your thoughts! Have you tried a mixed reality workout yet? What’s your dream fitness game scenario? Drop your ideas below! 👇

Did you ever write software in virtual reality?

Hey devs!

Sorry for the spam, but I’m just a lone wolf here trying to gather some feedback, and responses are hard to come by. I’m doing a bit of research on programming in VR and would love to hear about your experiences (or lack of them 😅). Whether you’re a VR wizard or just curious about the idea, your input would be super helpful!

Here's the : forms.gle/n1bYftyChhxPCyau9

I'll also share the results in this thread once they're in, so you can see what others think about coding in VR. Thanks in advance! 🙌

Base stations not connecting with quest pro

As the title says, my valve 2.0 base stations will not connect to my qp. I have a 7 tundra dongle, and two valve watchmen dongles. My base stations will connect if I'm using my index headset however. Up until a few weeks ago everything was working fine. I'm using virtual desktop to connect if that matters. Any suggestions are appreciated, I've been trying to get this fixed for weeks.
