Hello,
By when WebVR will be enable? Wordpress just released that function but it only works for single 360 panos/videos, no hotspot function.
Thanks
WebVR
WebVR is at the moment a moving target, as the API is not stable and changes constantly. There is no even a stable or even beta browser available, that supports it in a usable way.
Google and Firefox currently target summer next year for a consumer version and we hope to have a solution by then as well.

Thank you Thomas for your reply but I have seen and tested samples on Chromium and FF Nightly for a while. The other softwares for pano builders allow WebVR.
Is there any other way that Pano2vr works on the Vive or Oculus? I mean to have the function Gaze and navigate between panos.
thanks

You can try to modify the cardboard output and change the gyro.js to react to WebVR instead of the gyros.bkiter wrote:Thank you Thomas for your reply but I have seen and tested samples on Chromium and FF Nightly for a while. The other softwares for pano builders allow WebVR.

I really wanted to play with WebVR, and I would call myself computer literate, but event the regular WebVR demos crashed on me all the time on Firefox, and Chrome didn't even work.
I don't think this is ready for regular users as we would spent the whole day just troubleshooting user setups. This is just not a good experience yet.
I am following WebVR very closely, but our goal is to deliver something that "just works". WebVR is imho very far away from something that can be used like a regular web page. Lets see what 2017 brings to us.

I've created multi-nodes tours that work well using WebVR (Firefox Nightly). However... a tour may work one day, and then be broken with the next day's iteration of the browser software. As Hopki suggests, it's a moving target. For one client, I installed a kiosk w/Oculus Rift that uses a locked-down version of Firefox Nightly; no updates allowed. At least it works!

Our 2014 55" LG OLED television came with WebTV browser. Not sure which version.
For a web browser function test I browsed to our standard website (HTML5) and clicked on one of our Pano2VR multinode Bridge project. It not not a cardboard version. But this shows that WebTV browser did work at that time.
Same panorama located on our website.
