VRS is an environment for presenting three dimensional (3D) world. All visualisations are made at client(s) side VRC (Virtual Reality Client - example client is under developement, SF site avaible, see also http://jvrc.info).

VRT is a Virtual Reality Toolkit. It is planned to be OS-independent, easy-to-use, full-feature VR platform. It integrates 3D engine, physical engine and AI engine.

Vive Stereo Rendering Toolkit provides drag-and-drop components for developers to create stereoscopic rendering effects in a few minutes. With this toolkit, effects such as mirrors or portal doors can be easily achieved in your VR application. Vive or other SteamVR-compatible HMDs, no need to modify. Vive Focus, add WaveVR from "WaveVR/Prefabs" to the scenes; remember to expand the camera rig. Oculus Rift, add OVRCameraRig from "OVR/Prefabs" to the scenes.

Use the WebXR Device API today, providing fallbacks to native WebVR 1.1 and Cardboard. A JavaScript implementation of the WebXR Device API, as well as the WebXR Gamepad Module. This polyfill allows developers to write against the latest specification, providing support when run on browsers that implement the WebVR 1.1 spec, or on mobile devices with no WebVR/WebXR support at all. The polyfill reflects the stable version of the API which has shipped in multiple browsers. If you are writing code against the WebVR 1.1 spec, use webvr-polyfill, which supports browsers with the 1.0 spec, or no implementation at all. It is recommended to write your code targeting the WebXR Device API spec however and use this polyfill as browsers begin to implement the latest changes. The minimal input controls currently supported by WebXR is polyfilled here as well, using the Gamepad API.

Build virtual reality experiences with A-Frame and React. A-Frame is a web framework for building virtual reality experiences. Since A-Frame is built on top of the DOM, web libraries such as React, Vue.js, Angular, Ember.js, d3.js are able to sit cleanly on top of A-Frame. I recommend using vanilla A-Frame and aframe-state-component with static templating over aframe-react. React wastes a lot of cycles and incurs a lot of memory garbage. aframe-react is often abused where it is too easy to place 3D/real-time logic at the React layer, causing poor performance (e.g., doing React renders on ticks). aframe-react applications frequently ignore the prescribed ECS framework of A-Frame. Internally, React does tons of computation to compute what changed, and flushes it to the entire application. It is apparent React ecosystem does not care much about memory as most examples allocate functions and objects in the render method, and where immutables are popular.

osgJuggler is a library suite that makes developing computer graphics appications for virtual reality easier. osgJuggler is a framework that allows you to develop a scene with OpenSceneGraph and view it on any platform supported by VRJuggler.

VRG3D is a library that uses G3D and implements a minimal set of features required to run applications written with G3D in projection based virtual reality environments, such as Caves and Fish Tanks.
