Cool work, thanks for sharing! I saw briefly in the video https://youtu.be/QlfCfkzkBB4?si=xkuPS0Dj9Z9hnjAP&t=57 that you were using 3d renderings of eyes for training? Did you find a rigged eye like that, or make it? So it worked well enough for training. Are you using actual captures for training too? or is it not worth using?
I’ve done the same with a q3 and virtual desktop for a few weeks and hours at a time when I didn’t have a good monitor. I could run a 4k screen after tweaking the settings a bit. (And using a dummy hdmi plug so an external monitor was not needed)
It was best curved and large (and angled down a bit) so that I use it like it is 4 1080p screens. And move head to see each (and a bit more) sharp.
The newer version (tested briefly) lets you arrange several virtual monitors wherever. Not as convenient/sharp as a large 4k tv/monitor on my desk, but for a backup monitor and mobile it was great. I’ll give it a shot again.
I didn’t have to disable mobile mode to move my fingers over the browser navigation from the app and still control the puck. It’s very replaceable. I like the statistics. Perhaps one that shows a histogram over all games and where you rank for score etc? But top tennis is generous.
Fortunately, it ended ok. I healed for over a year before dating again, and dated someone for exactly a year to make sure it was good relationship. It still is. :D
Occlusion could be done with head tracking for one observer (not both eyes though); but defeats the point. I'm guessing AR glasses will work for much of this.
Neat, I played with 360 equirectangular projection gen for a gamejam last year.
It has some interesting possibilities and challenges.
I started to image segment objects then generative infill to replace the background and make objects in the forground to work have z depth for vr, used switchlight ai to make objects into PBR textures so I could have dynamic lights...
Reminds of an early tank simulator where the driver in the cockpit saw a video feed from a camera on a gantry they were slowly driving around a diarama. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=AcQifPHcMLE
"Real engine" for just one player at a time though.
