The Backdrop
V-Sekai is dedicated to advancing the immersive experience in social VR. We can enhance VR book reading, a feature that demands high-quality visuals with efficient resource usage.
The Challenge
Integrating readable, high-quality SVG-based books into the VR environment presents a dual challenge of maintaining visual clarity while optimizing performance.
The Strategy
Utilize the svgcleaner
tool, particularly its Rust implementation, to optimize SVG files for VR book reading. This involves cleaning up SVG files from unnecessary data, thereby reducing file size without compromising visual integrity.
The Upside
Optimized SVGs lead to faster load times, smoother performance, and an overall enhanced user experience in VR book reading. This aligns with V-Sekai’s goal of creating a seamless and engaging VR environment.
The Downside
The svgcleaner
tool, particularly its Rust version, is currently archived and read-only, indicating a need for refresh or redevelopment.
The Road Not Taken
Alternative SVG optimization methods or tools might exist but could lack the specific features or efficiency provided by svgcleaner
.
The Infrequent Use Case
While primarily aimed at VR book reading, this optimization could benefit other areas of V-Sekai where SVGs are used.
In Core and Done by Us?
The task involves integrating an external tool (svgcleaner
) into the core V-Sekai development process, possibly requiring custom adaptation for the specific VR context.
