#WebXR

At the risk of being _too_ open (given the candidates are on here)

What would be a great technical take-home question using #webGL and #THREEjs? I've got ideas but I'm trying to thread the needle between challenging and respectful of the candidates time.

Anyone else run into getting the viewport size on the quest browser?

I’m running into a bug where it appears to change after I’ve exiting a webXR session

Awesome new #webxr features couldn’t have come soon enough

We’re chugging along with our MR first UI library. Here’s our built in implementation of hand matting!

A good spatial experience is gives a sense that virtual content is truly in the room. If you put your hand in front of an object and it appears behind it, it instantly breaks the illusion.

Hand matting is key to this. Our implementation isn’t perfect, but a little goes a long way!

We’re an early stage startup working to build the #spatailweb

We understand that this is a new space, so we encourage everyone to apply regardless of #xr experience. We want a strong engineer first, XR experience is just a plus.

@lobau I think I might move some old demos to our YouTube channel and start sharing them on LinkedIn. Thoughts? They’re using AFrame but they’re all MR demos, exploring what’s possible with webXR.

Canvatorium Lab 017 - Revamped

Playing with the Surface Magnetism Behavior from Babylon JS, combined with the Six Dof Drag Behavior. Magnetism is only enabled during the Drab to prevent the default "follow the cursor" behavior.

I think this is super useful for laying UI, user customizable controls, user defined data, etc.

@lobau We’re just getting started, and we’ve got a long road ahead of us. But we’re building radically in the open, chatting mostly here on mastodon. So follow us here to keep up with our day to day progress, and for major updates.

We’re very excited to get started, and we’re even more excited to have you along for the ride!

This has been in the works for awhile, but @lobau and I have teamed up on a new project!

I’ve spent most of my career working on XR platforms. The hardware has improved dramatically, but the dev experience remains the same.

Alternating between PC & headset over & over. Using a 2D environment to build a 3D app. It’s exhausting. What’s worse is you’re stuck with game engines. Game engines beget games!

Excited by the prospect of getting this wired up to Monado and my Rokid headset eventually.

I might've gone a bit overboard while integrating #Effekseer😅
Will release the @aframevr

more fun with #webxr in #servo on windows. you would not believe (well, maybe some of you would) how long it took me to get this screenshot without something breaking or freezing. not to mention there was a weird issue I had to work around where A-Frame's default text shader just didn't work, so I had to use aframe-troika-text instead

@leroy yeah it’s been so long for me as well as I’ve been lucky enough to work on platforms that have great docs as they have a robust community and massive corporate backing.

Given the still relatively young state of the #immersiveweb, the docs aren’t perfect.

It’s like moving from an apartment complex to building a house yourself. It’s a lot of work, but it’s satisfying.

#webxr #spatialcomputing #arvr #ammojs #extendedreality #mixedreality

fun "i wonder if i could do that" project this weekend: getting #servo to render #webxr content with the #openxr backend on windows. and it sorta works! I think the projection matrix or something is screwed up cause everything's close and clipping, but pretty neat regardless

For ages now I've had the idea to make the same game in a variety of different #WebXR engines/frameworks/libraries as a video series to both be a learning resource and show off the different tools that are out there. For each one I would touch on the major elements like scene creation, input handling, asset loading, and maybe even some of the less documented on video stuff like multiplayer. Would that be interesting to people?

hey @mozilla , could you please, pretty please see at embarking someone to finalise/integer the #WebXR implementation on Linux ?
this is pending for soooo long,

```markdown
The development kit for #VisionOS (#VisionPro #AppleVisionPro) is out. First, I read, how to write HTML to get nice controls in 2D and 3D. Surprisingly there was a hint to #WebXR. Safary usually is late with this kind of things. This time even #BabylonJS and #ThreeJS werew mentioned! That means, I will be able to code Web-apps and games as I hopped.

Would I buy a "Vision"? Not the "Pro" but an "SE". The #OculusQuest is 300€ so Apple means 2/3 times, ...
1/x
```

Feedback on the #WebTechForApps event last week in #Paris:
- 6 awesome speakers.
- Cutting edge topics such as #MiniApps, #WebRTC, #WebXR, #Solid, #OpenSource, #OpenStandards, and #WebApplications.
- Great discussions.
- Free lunch.

Despite lots of promotion, the audience was smaller than expected. Is that the new norm, or could we have done something different to attract more people? Your thoughts welcome.

Friday I left my job at Apple. After 4 years of doing truly amazing work with and awesome team, I decided it’s time for me to leave and pursue my own interests.

Working on the Vision Pro was an absolute privilege, and I intend to make my own small contribution to the new world of Spatial Computing.

imho this 👇 is part of the future of these #AR devices, and openness is a key for developers to invent and people's need be met.

question of nits, but openness is underlying

probably a very good system to work on for the vOICe ?
#WebXR

As I’d hoped… #Apple confirmed #WebXR support in #visionOS Safari 🥽 Which means even casual hobbyists have an open-web path to make and share cool creative stuff for #VisionPro, and prototype “real” apps, without needing a dev account, an App Store listing, an executable build. Nor even a Mac or Vision Pro. (I hope #Unity gains built-in WebXR export, although plugins exist for that.)

WOW! It's clear that #WebTechForApps is a significant and growing trend (#MiniApps #PWA #WebRTC #WebXR, #Solid ...).

Looks like there's a session tomorrow about Safari in Apple's new headset, which mentions "Emerging standards [that] are helping shape 3D experiences for the web."

Fingers crossed for #WebXR, #WebGPU news!

There's a breakout session tomorrow on #Safari + #visionOS. If there were any time to make a statement on #WebXR support it would be here. The last line, "We'll also share how emerging standards are helping shape 3D experiences for the web." is the closest they've come to even suggesting it might be on the table.

though let's be honest they're probably just gonna talk about <model> and USDZ

I’m organising a free tech #innovation event in Paris, June 13, with renowned experts talking about #WebTechForApps.

Come and join us + please help spread the word (https://tinyurl.com/59ptb5vx).

Apple just has to announce full #WebXR support on Monday, right?

right?...

#Quest browser 26.2 was released to with support for Space Warp in #webxr
This feature can result in a dramatic improvement in your WebXR scene since the browser can run at half the frame rate.
This is the spec: https://immersive-web.github.io/layers/#spacewarp
There's a sample here: https://dannysu.github.io/webxr-samples/layers-samples/proj-spacewarp.html
Basically, you submit the color buffer as usual but also submit reduced resolution depth and velocity buffers. They allow the compositor to invent a frame.

Let me know if you have questions!
