Creating a Lightweight Unity Interaction Package.

Abstract: This project proposes a lightweight interaction system for VR in the Unity game engine. The Unity VR start up project is ~2GB in size upon creation, while our proposed system is currently ~350MB. It also shrink the needed components by half, while still support most of the same functionality of Unity XR Toolkit. The new system is designed with the goals of supporting non-coders while allowing extensions for coders and following well established GUI event paradigms for familiarity. The project currently focuses on grab base interactions and navigation.
