1. A method, comprising:
receiving environment data acquired using one or more sensors of a projection device, wherein the environment data comprises data corresponding to a physical environment proximate to a plurality of users, wherein the one or more sensors comprise a satellite navigation system receiver;
generating an interactive environment for the plurality of users based on the environment data, wherein the interactive environment comprises an augmented reality (AR) environment, a mixed reality (MR) environment, or a virtual reality (VR) environment associated with one or more applications, wherein the one or more applications comprise one or more exchange-based applications;
generating image data based on the interactive environment, wherein the image data corresponds to one or more images associated with the interactive environment; and
transmitting the image data to the projection device, wherein the projection device is configured to transmit the image data to a plurality of viewing devices configured to project the interactive environment to the plurality of users.
