During November 2024, Ben Schneider developed room-based structured messaging for the CLAWS-UMICH/AURA repository, focusing on enhancing real-time collaboration. He updated the WebSocketClient to accept both a message and a room identifier, serializing these into JSON and emitting them to a dedicated event for room-specific data routing. This approach enabled robust, multi-room communication and structured data exchange within collaborative XR environments. Additionally, Ben broadened XR hardware and input feature support by updating the OpenXR package configuration. His work leveraged C#, JSON serialization, and WebSockets, demonstrating depth in integrating real-time messaging with device interoperability for future extensibility.
