Meet in Space

Meet in Space is (HRTF-based, binarual) spatial audio for Jitsi Meet using Web Audio. Server space provided by the Norwegian Research and Education Cloud. This work was completed in partial fulfillment for the Music, Communication and Technology program at the University of Oslo (UiO) and University of Science and Technology (NTNU).

Check out the thesis for more insights into spatial audio, user interaction, intelligibility and more!

A demo video of the system can be found here. The system is built upon Jitsi Meet build 2.0.5870.

Instructions for an installation of the system are similar to deploying Jitsi Meet as a developer. Instructions were simplified from the great guide by corby found here.

Installation

1. Install Jitsi Meet 👋

Follow the steps for the official installation here.

❗ Confirm you can join meetings between 3 people (or browser tabs) using your server. If this doesn’t work properly, troubleshoot before continuing.

2. Install npm and Node.js 🧪

Download and install the latest LTS versions of npm and Node.js:

sudo apt install curl && sudo apt install make
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_14.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt install -y nodejs

Verify versions of Node.js >= 14 and npm >= 6:

node -v && npm -v

Expected output:

v14.17.0
6.14.13

3. Clone this repo via git, update, and install 🤖

⚠️ Do not run build commands as the root user but as a normal user (no sudo).

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/jacksongoode/meet-in-space.git
cd ~/meet-in-space/
npm update && npm install

This guide assumes the cloned folder will appear in the user's home directory.

4. Configure nginx to use your local folder 📂

Review your entire conf file and replace all occurrences of /usr/share/jitsi-meet with /home/$USER/jitsi-meet, where $USER is the name of your user folder.

This line can batch replace all strings within the conf file, where meet.domain.com is the site you are hosting:

sudo sed -i.bak "s|/user/share/jitsi-meet|/home/$USER/meet-in-space|g" /etc/nginx/sites-available/meet.domain.com.conf

You can confirm the changes here:

nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/meet.domain.com.conf

☝️ A backup file at /etc/nginx/sites-available/meet.domain.com.conf.bak preserves the original file.

5. Restart nginx and verify 🎊

Restart nginx: sudo service nginx restart

Open a new meeting across a few tabs to verify the page loads and connects.
