Why Igloo CAVE Integration?
Igloo CAVE systems offer 360° wall and floor projection, transforming simple games into fully immersive learning experiences. 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.
