Crazy Ivan aims to solve several problems necessary to enabling Augmented Reality experiences that multiple individuals can interact with. It is one critical piece in joining the digital world and the physical world together seamlessly. On top of this unique functionality is a robust, reliable, and secure core, capable of enabling multi-user animation, design, gaming, and more. Crazy Ivan is up to the challenge of both the digital and physical realms, and that makes it unique.
This is a service designed to store ‘Scenes’. A Scene is a collection of Renderable Objects (possibly associated to some geographic coordinate), which users can move between. These scenes can be anything, ranging from levels in a traditional video game, to apartments in a building.
Devices can join and leave scenes as they move through the world, and as they do we build a network of relationships that can be used to determine the transformations needed for other devices. Crazy Ivan also serves as a UDP Server, communicating Updates out to registered devices.
As you decide on the foundation for your next application, you should choose one that will grow with you, both in terms of scale and in terms of technology. It’s time to stop settling for ‘good enough’ when it comes to interactive, shared visuals.
Detailed documentation can be found on ReadTheDocs.
Crazy Ivan is a part of the AO Aesel Project, along with CLyman.
