[Feature Request] Navigate inside "world" with cardboard

[MauMaxxa]

Is it possible to mix cardboard experience with AR Hello World, to use cardboard to navigate inside a world with custom 3d objects, and not with camera?

Just like the product showcase example, but in "3d" so that if i move inside that world, it look like i'm walking inside the room..

Thank you! Mauro

HI @MauMaxxa, what you are describing, using ARKit tracking (6dof) with a cardboard VR headset, to walk in VR, is currently not supported. But that is a good idea and we will add it to our backlog.

One clarification: you want the user to be using a cardboard/VR headset for this experience? Not just holding up their phone.

Hi Danny! Thank you for your reply..! I’d like to use it both, would be great without cardboard but even with it (more immersive)

Thank you so much for your attention!!

Hi @MauMaxxa You can use our ViroPortal component to create a mixed reality experience. Portals allow users to walk into VR worlds such as 360 Photos/Video and 3D environments. Here is a tutorial on how to build AR Portals -> https://blog.viromedia.com/how-to-build-ar-portals-in-5-mins-w-react-native-viro-ar-b939850def94

Hi @dam00n !

I tried viro Portal but thats for a photo&video, not for a whole "world", or am i interpreting that wrong?!

Thank you! Mauro

Hi @MauMaxxa, in the blog post example, try replacing the 360Photo/Video (line 35) with a component for the model you want to use. This will place 3D objects in the portal. Usually, people use a combination of 360Photo (background environment like space) with 3D models (foreground objects to walk around).

@MauMaxxa this is not a feature we will support. New VR headsets coming out later this year from Oculus, Google and others will have some level of inside out tracking. We will focus our efforts on supporting new hardware with better integration. Closing this issue.
