Those are interesting ideas, thanks! I'll have to try and play with that.

High Fidelity the company is still around, but they pivoted multiple times radically. Initially their plan was social VR of sorts. Then they tried to make a corporate product for meetings and such, and gave up on that right before COVID19 hit!

And after that they ripped out all the 3D and VR and scaled down to a 2D, overhead spatial audio web thing. Think something like Zoom, only you have an icon that you can move around to get closer or further to other people.

The original code still lives on, we picked it up and are working on improvements. Feel free to visit out Discord (see my profile).
