Oculus go?

  • Micha It is a standalone HMD. So it has no direct connection to a workstation or Enscape.

    You could view stereo panorama tours or maybe our new WebGl solution will be functional for simplified walkthroughs.

  • Might be off topic - but for customers presentsations, i have great succes using simple 3d panoramas.


    - create the view via enscape

    - download to my iphone

    - open the views in the extreme userfriendly app "VR Viewer" (i have no stocks in the company)

    - insert my phone into Homido Grab hmd.


    light and easy setup, works offline and customers can switch between images (needs a go back one image function though), and all my non technicial colleagues can use it.


    but that's not "real" VR - i have a setup of Oculus Rift here at the office, that is really cool, but very stationary, but nice to show to customers, and they are amazed every time.


    but i would say, when all comes to all we use the Homido Grab / mobile version 90% of the time and only 10% for the Oculus Rift.

  • I like to call it VR-Lite. It is very effective and has been for a while through cardboard, Gear VR and other devices that use your phone. I just never had any luck with any of the cardboard headsets and my iPhone. Lenses always seemed crappy, hard to adjust and using the phone always seem unprofessional and cheap. The Go is a great step in the right direction.


    Here is some info on the Santa Cruz https://www.roadtovr.com/oculu…specs-everything-we-know/

    The price tag might be the breaker here for some. My guess is $7-800 possibly.


    If you setup a series of stereo 360s leading a client through a design, it can be almost as effective as walking through a VR model (i think). Also, no getting sick or queasy because you are not 'walking' in VR, which does tend to make some feel sick.


    https://theviewer.co/ does a great job of allowing you stitch your panos together into a clean presentation. I tested this out on the Go and it works wonderfully.

  • VStudio The app looks pretty interesting, but as VR is their one and only core business they have to be an early adopter.


    Our WebGL based standalone should be accessible via the Oculus browser on the Oculus Go.

  • Its very easy to take a series of 360 exports, upload them to DropBox and open them right in the Gallery App. It takes a few minutes and the experience is really just as effective as being in the Rift walking around, I think.

    @VStudion , have you tried to use oculus go to run enscape walkthrough? Such as using steamvr?

    Hello, I have the Oculus Go and I can not install the vr stream, as I read, for graphics card issues. Is there any other way to run walkthrougs in my glasses?
    Is it expected that there will soon be an alternative (app, web platform, update enscape ...?

    Hey Carcar, I don't suppose you could share your process with me and the forums? I'm very interested in how you're using Steam VR and Oculus Go, are you using ALVR? I immediately wonder if this could work remotely? Set up a local node in the office, connect Oculus Go over the local network and remote into your local desktop from a laptop or something to kick off the interactive demo. That is, unless it has to be connected via a local network. Im very interested and would love to pick your brain about this.
