Introduction
What kind of experience is “traveling”? What is the experience of traveling to another time and space, which may be a replica of the real world, or a created “utopia”?
Is there really a world where people can hear the sounds of this place, see the scenery, and interact with the objects around them?
People's fantasies about “traveling” never end. As early as 1935, science fiction writer Stanley G. Weinbaum described in his novel “Pygmalion's Glasses” a virtual reality glasses, through which the wearer can feel the sights, smells, and tactile sensations of another world.
Fantasy steps into reality, and now we are no longer unfamiliar with XR technology, which combines AR, VR, MR and other technologies to break down the boundaries between reality and virtual reality and create an interactive scene that blends reality and reality.
Users' curiosity and demand for “immersion” has made virtual reality shine in the market. However, at the same time, when users apply traditional VR, there are problems such as redundant VR content platforms, numerous APPs or applications, and limited application of VR software, which affect the user experience.
WebXR Realizes “Light-Through”
WebXR technology has emerged to enable users to experience the immersion of virtual reality more easily.
WebXR refers to the APIs provided by browsers to operate XR devices. Typically, WebXR device APIs are used to access Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) devices, including sensors and head-mounted displays, on the Web. Users can experience VR, AR and other content by browsing the web without spending time to download an app or application.
Quick Adaptation without Downloading
Fulima Cloud's J3D digital twin development platform, which is free and open to users, now officially supports WebXR. Without downloading an app, users can flip a WebXR switch through J3D's editing page to experience J3D and the rich model interactions created within J3D in VR devices in an immersive way.
No Need to Shelf and Quickly Share
Based on the publishing feature of J3D scene, users can freely experience VR without the need to upload the WebXR app to the built-in VR gaming platform. It is recommended that users use Pico4 headset and its joystick device or other VR devices with built-in WeebXR browser support to share the web application on WeChat, QQ or VR social networking, and enjoy the immersive roaming experience with other users.
Enabling Virtual Traversal in Multiple Application Scenarios
WebXR not only decouples VR from related technologies and devices, but also realizes a lighter way to update the application of the scene you made on the open standard. And this has become a major advantage of the application of online dissemination, so that it has a bright future in the meta-universe, social activities, online exhibition halls, simulation training and other types of application scenarios.
Social Presentation
WebXR allows the operation of sharing URLs to quickly let more people join in, and its advantages in light distribution, publicity, and socialization are more efficient and convenient compared to the traditional sharing of a 3D webpage or downloading a VR content APP, and are not limited to VR devices.
Conference and Lecture
WebXR relies on a unified standard, developers do not need to be compatible with the device or engine version to realize online lightweight implementation, reduce development costs and improve collaboration efficiency. WebXR does not require the download of an APP program, which also makes meetings, lectures and other functions more concise and easy to use. Users can operate the device for immersive teaching and applications, get started quickly, and improve the quality of training.
Production and Equipment Maintenance
XR and digital twin realize the reproduction and interaction of the real world in the virtual world, which enables factory staff to realize unattended operation and equipment maintenance remotely through software and hardware equipment, reducing the waste of human resources.Web-end XR integrates these technical applications, and with its online, lightweight features, it can better satisfy the needs of the platform, so that more enterprises can enjoy the services and upgrading of the real industry by digital technology. Upgrade.
Nowadays, with the rise and rapid development of 3D scene and digital twin technology on the Web side, the lightweight online application and dissemination of emerging technologies will become the trend of market development. In the future, as more and more VR headsets come out, WebXR will become more and more mature, and be applied to industrial production, marketing and promotion, exhibition halls and galleries, entertainment games and other scenarios, empowering thousands of trades and industries, and helping businesses to create the next ecological windfall of content, and truly realizing the construction of a “complete virtual world”.
