[feature request] panorama video support for video call #1256

Open wjhtinger opened 7 years ago

wjhtinger commented 7 years ago

In video call, can display the panorama video of the peer. I think the A-Frame can implement this goal. Or give some ideals, I try to do it myself.

Are you suggesting something to take advantage of a 360 degree camera on the peer's computer?

wjhtinger commented 7 years ago

Yes. Just I want to implement VR video call by use of 360 degree camera or big wide angle(>180) fisheye camera. As I know, A-frame can display the local camera vr stream(see https://github.com/jesstelford/aframe-video-billboard). But I am not sure if can display the live stream come from network.

This is an interesting idea. I'd think it might be a little tricky to build in alongside the rest of the voip stuff robustly, but it's certainly something interesting to experiment with.
