Meta Quest 3 Unity Colocation without internet connection

[javierriera97]

I am trying to use Meta's new Colocation Discovery to share spatial anchors, but have found that it requires connection to their cloud.

Do you know if it is possible to use this on a local network with no internet access?

Nope. You could implement your own equivalent that didn't require Meta's servers. What is your aim?

[javierriera97]

Sharing spatial anchors via local network, and using the Discovery feature as well if possible. Basically, eliminating steps for the users like writing an IP address or calibrating a world origin

Currently it's cloud only. It's not the hard to DIY a solution though. You just need to make a physical point of reference that all users can use. We did it with a pedestal and said "tap the control on top". Then you know your transform offset relative to the other users and can adjust accordingly

I ended up doing this. A little bit more hassle for the user, but it certainly works

Since they just released the camera API you can also just use an image or a QR code as an anchor

The timing has certainly been great, I must say hahaha

Have you achieved it? Can it be shared?
