Variant - WebXR + WebAR

Variant Launch is now live! Publish browser-based WebAR experiences on iOS and android for a fraction of the cost of other AR SDKs. No cost-per-view, no app required. Launching experiences on iOS is as seamless as possible, whether via QR or browser.

Finally, WebXR on iOS! Publish browser-based WebAR experiences on iOS and android for a fraction of the cost of other AR SDKs. No cost-per-view, no app required, native ARKit/ARCore tracking quality. launch.variant3d.com

🚵 I've been working on this for quite some time. Wanted to explore if it's possible to watch cycling in AR (Quest 3 and AVP). Tried it with the Ronde Van Vlaanderen but was not able to gather enough data. With the Tour De France I was able to create this POC #webxr #TourdeFrance

Excited to launch react-three/xr🤳🥽 Leverage the latest WebXR features, reuse your existing interactions, and advance what is possible in AR and VR on the Web. ↳ Turn your existing R3F app into an AR or VR experience with only a few lines of code. 🎉

My new workflow.. Mac Virtual Display + WebXR = Awesome! WebXR session is maintained as I edit code, with Virtual Display now visible on top of WebXR, as of visionOS 2 @AdaRoseCannon @dmarcos @kentbye

Bit disappointed Apple didn't destroy Variant Launch by releasing mobile WebXR... There's always next year!

@worksalt Its true, we recommend staying well away from Variant

notice no one can comment, because Variant's implementation sucks, it's not worth your time, and they don't want you to know it.

Our Web browser is special🥰 It can extract content to view in 3D space and create web-apps! In today's video we'll learn all about it, check it out! 🤩 #MixedReality #MetaQuest #FigminXR #Quest3

We're launching volu.dev! a WebXR dev companion. We got tired of juggling ports and IPs, or untangling cables to debug something. So we moved all the essentials to the headset and built an extension to connect to it. Check it out here! marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName…

Introducing the world’s first XR gaze-driven autofocus camera system. Our latest blog explains the technology behind the variable-focus system in Varjo XR-4 Focal Edition, how it was achieved and how it can make a difference on mission-critical work. 🔗: eu1.hubs.ly/H097vbq0

📏 Introducing RealMeasure! Harness the precision of your controllers to capture real-life measurements with ease in #MixedReality. Powered by #WebXR and built with #threejs. Try it here🔗: felixtrz.github.io/realmeasure (video captured on #MetaQuest3)

This is an incredibly cool idea for mixed reality social interactions! Four users play together in MR, and every player has his room joined with the rooms of the other players to create a big hybrid room. Thanks to the scene understanding of Quest, you can also have a rough representation of the furniture the other users have. It's like you remove the distances and you play together in the same space, in this case by throwing each other a hot potato. I discovered this video because a few days ago I posted an article about social AR, and the amazing Ivan Aguilar pointed me to this talk by Jesse Schell at GDC where he talked about the future of MR experiences and showcased this prototype of a mixed reality game. If you want to watch the full talk, you find it here: youtube.com/watch?v=YVgqnA… What do you think about it? Don't you find it cool, too? #MixedReality #SpatialComputing #VirtualReality #metaverse #innovation

A few months back, we teased clips from our upcoming VFX app, @Simulon. We've since been hard at work making Simulon the most powerful, robust, and intuitive VFX workflow available. This weekend, we'll begin granting access to select creators. Simulon is now able to produce videos that are indistinguishable from reality - can you spot which objects on the table are real and which were added with Simulon? Watch to the end to see if you're right. A thread 🧵

Final @fdotinc #dreamxr hackathon devlog entry, and new title: BOLLARD BUDDY AR! At the buzzer here's what we finished: place your favorite cones, bollards, posts and more! Then share your creation geolocated with @googlemaps 3D! uses @aframevr @Variant3D @threejs @3dstreetapp

Thanks to popular feedback from @3dstreetapp users, we're prototyping an app to create scenes with AR. It uses WebXR AR with @aframevr and @Variant3D as a polyfill. Here's a day 1 prototype we're making as part of the #dreamxr hackathon hosted by @fdotinc & @MetaQuestVR.

Another @fdotinc #dreamxr hackathon devlog entry, now back to the @3dstreetapp AR street maker app for iOS and Android (powered by @aframevr and @Variant3D) Now we can place cones outdoors and they stay (basically) in the same place, even while walking across large areas.
