a roomscale VR scene targeting the HTC Vive
use the front-trigger on either Vive controller to pick up and inspect a block
in 2D mode, press W to go back and bring the scene into view. for a nicer camera position, checkout this commit commit hash 47adcf3b99846d309bb3770a516fa917782597f7
follow the stackoverflow question how to reset camera position on enter VR? for a possible method to show a nice custom camera position in 2D mode and a glued-to-the-hmd camera position when in VR
block a-boxes positions are closer to the origin than in previous examples so that they are within reach from in roomscale VR. ROADMAP: teleport locomotion ;-)
many thanks to @bryik_ws, @utopiah, @donrmccurdy over at the A-Frame slack for help getting the interaction working.
do get a slack invite of your own and check out the other places the A-Frame community gathers
all the blocks with thumbnail images created during the 2016 #d3unconf
here we use aframe’s a-boxes, which are kind of like SVG rects
