One video showing something better than the entire concept of the metaverse. Probably because this doesn’t look like a way to create a space specifically to rent, sell or advertise shit.
Wow! I love it !! 🤩
Cries in word-processor ‘focused writing’ mode.
Still, pretty amazing they got full running video in one of the windows.
Can’t wait to try this on the Steam Frame
Pretty sure steam frames cameras will be black and white
I’m more interested in the virtual screens than the AR aspect. I’m perfectly fine to do this in a VR office I really don’t need to see the real world when doing this.
It has a connector on the front for a potential color camera
Why do you say that? Valve’s last two VR headsets had full color cameras.
“Four high-resolution, monochrome cameras” https://store.steampowered.com/sale/steamframe
It’s in the published specs. The pass through cameras on the Steam Frame will be monochrome, but an expansion port exists that could support third party color cameras. They’ve said they prioritized game streaming features over AR.
Or some AR glasses!
Some are super cheap but all use (non-standard-rgb subpixel?) oleds.
Might be more comfortable for such 2d stuff.
You heathens and your godamn communist technology
Nice!
Next step is to make it not only a set of virtual flat screens, but allow the user to interact with 3D objects
Imagine having that tree in 3D and having screens around it, or something along these lines
What headset is used in the video?
I don’t know, but the developer mentions these in the Merge Request: Rokid Max, HP G2, Quest 3.
I’ve never heard of Rokid. Looks like they are $150 AR glasses.
Can we first get a functional headless KRDP though? TigerVNC + Xorg + KDE worked amazing for connecting to my headless work computer on the same LAN, but ever since switching to wayland this kind of setup is simply impossible since it needs to be implemented on Kwin level.
Is anyone working on this? Is there a feature branch I can keep track of and maybe contribute to?
It’s very unlikely that work on this VR feature prevents work on headless KRDP, so let’s not artificially delay features, OK?
Huh, is this something that’s actively been developed? Is there a MR?
I understand the Steam Frame is using it
Source? I found the MR, https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/8671, and nothing about that shows it’s for the Steam Frame. In fact, the video shows a colored passthrough camera mode while the Steam Frame (sadly) has a black and white camera only.
Valve has announced the use of the KDE desktop on the frame, and then KDE shows this off. Couldn’t give you more than that, but it seems pretty straightforward doesn’t it?
I would be thrilled if I could bring life back to my Oculus Rift S with this.
Getting a 403. Is it just me?
Same. I was able to find a video of it online though. This is probably what they posted. https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/8671
Correct, that’s the video that I see in the OP.
OK, that’s also returning a 403. Wondering if there’s something with my IP address…
So can we use this in non-vr? I just want bumptop back …
That’s great, but how do I pron with this?!?!?
NOOOIIIICCE!!!
I mean, I’ll never, ever, use it, but… NIICE!!
Completely forgot about Gnosia, need to pickit up again.
way too much content for me :(
