Integration

This integration is built by the WarpVR development team supported by the Igloo application integration team. The integration enables the 360 video output to be displayed in a suitable format for Igloo immersive spaces.

Demo scenarios

Create a WebView and access the demo scenarios at http://www.warpvr.com/demo. There are four demo scenarios and they are all interactive.

Igloo View

Select one of the scenarios and choose to play the scenario ‘In this browser’.

Modify the WebView properties so that the resolution is 6000 x 1000 and then add the Cubemap to Equirectangular and TruePerspective effects.

Setting the resolution to 6000 x 1000 is the trigger for the scenario to be rendered as a cubemap.

Use Igloo Control Panel, select the mouse tab and press ‘Start casting’ to move the on-screen cursor and select the answers to the questions that appear during the scenario. At the end of the scenario you receive an overall score for the exercise.

WarpVR Login

To access any scenarios other than the demos, requires a 6-digit, one-time use, code. This can be used to sign-in to your profile or to access a specific scenario.

The 6-digit code can be sent to your email address if you are a registered user. Another way to obtain a code is via the WarpVR app on a smartphone.

If you are using a WebView, set the aspect ratio to a normal portrait style in order for the menu screens to appear correctly.

Enter your WarpVR account email address. The access code will then be sent by email to that address.

When you have received the access code email, click the ‘I have a code’ button and enter the 6 digit code followed by the ‘Sign in’ button.

Once logged in, the Scenarios page will be displayed. Click on a scenario and select the appropriate options from the pop-ups to start the scenario.

Exiting Scenarios

It is recommended to close WarpVR sessions gracefully by clicking the Stop Playing button in the scenario.

If you press Home before stopping the scenario from playing, a javascript pop-up will appear requesting confirmation to leave the scenario. This pop-up will only be visible on the console display and will therefore block the system for any Canvas UI users.
