Classic behaviour provides the common case of Roomful app using. Room can have any kind of Social Circles, users automatically connects to Hub with available slots (up to 50 people in 1 Hub).
This behaviour fits well for room with more than 1 Social Circle and has a big space. The difference from Classic mode is: when user joins Videochat - automatically joins specially created Hub for current Videochat to see all the participants and their reactions.
This behaviour perfectly fits for quick meetings around the table. User just takes a sit on chair near another avatar and automatically joins dedicated videochat with opponent. If user is looking for chat - he sis on char near the table and waits the opponent to join him; oruser can join another user that already took a sit around the table.
This behaviour created to maintain school or universily class needs. To make this mode work each student should exist in at least one class (Hub that creaed from Group with type class) and teacher should has ownership of classrooms. When student joins classroom - automatically joins special Hub created from users' Classroom template, when teacher joins - allowed to choose if more than one class managed by this person (otherwise also automatically joins same Hub as students).
Great oportunity to spend fun time by singing songs with friends or random peolple. To make this behaviour work we need to create a Group and invite other users there. Group owner will moderate the process(start or stop Karaoke videochat, select singer etc). Singer choosed by moderator selects the song and starts singing, other users listen to his vocal and react with emotions.
If any Hub created from Group where user invited is active - user will automatically joins it, but if more than 1 - user can manually join. If user participates in public Hub - anybody can start Karaoke videochat.
The most new behaviour that allows to have a voice chat with any user in Hub without doing a special action to start, but just get close enough and start a conversation. This is the most similar communication that we have in real life when person comes to another and starts a chat, closer person gets - better hears an oponent and vice versa.
The name of this behaviour talks for itself. It's very close to the Classic mode, but when Room Chat starts also stream starts and any user from any Hub can watch it withlout joining videochat.
Perfect mode for quick inerviews between Recruiters and Candidates with 2, 5 or 10 min rounds. Candidates automatically shuffle between Recruiters and take places in front of opponent during active Speed Dating round. When rounds are over or it's a break round, candidate joins Public Room videochat.
