A Prototyping Toolkit for XR Applications using Cloth Deformation

XRtic is a prototyping toolkit enabling real-world cloth deformations to be used in novel ways in eXtended Reality (XR) applications. It is a fully functional implementation which consists of custom-made actuators that can be attached to regular clothing, a controller bus system, and a controller interface. Using the XRtic toolkit, users can design and integrate different cloth deformation types synchronised with virtual content in a plug-and-play manner.
