Here's what I want: an always-on group audio chat app with:
* A virtual 2D 'office' with positional audio
* Super low latency (~10ms)
* Minimal data/power/CPU usage
This would simulate what it feels like to be in an open office (when they work well). I can hear interesting things going on around me but because the audio is in 3D space I can pretty much filter it without thinking. If I say "hey has anyone gotten this error before?" the context clues of my volume and position make it clear to others who I am talking to.
I actually started building this last year but then the pandemic hit and I figured someone would beat me to it now that there's infinite VC money flowing into team chat. Still nothing!
- fumblebee 6y agoThe idea of an always-on group audio chat is absolutely revolting to me.
- reilly3000 6y agoIt seems just fine to millions of teens on Discord right now.

- habosa 6y agoYeah they're the closest I've seen! I don't think they're taking themselves seriously enough.
