Multiple players can physically share the same space while answering on their individual controllers, creating a unique blend of physical co-location and competitive learning. This project uses world-space and Screen space Canvas linked to CAVE cameras for synchronized display across all projectors. It works seamlessly with the Igloo Unity Toolkit (v1.3.8+) and 6-projector configurations (front, left, right, floor), ensuring every player and spectator can clearly see questions, answers, and real-time scores from any angle. The CAVE environment is ideal for classroom demonstrations, group assessments, and interactive learning sessions where immersion and collaboration enhance educational outcomes. 📜 License Information QuestPDF – Free for community / educational use SkiaSharp / HarfBuzzSharp – MIT License Unity Project – Educational / Non-commercial use
