WASD/pointerlock controls for AR

Open funwithtriangles opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

I think it would be very useful to have something like first person shooter controls for the AR mode.

  • The mobile device would be locked directly in front of the camera
  • Use WASD to move around the scene
  • Use mouse to look around, mobile device is always kept locked to this angle
  • Use scroll wheel to move the mobile device further or closer to the camera

Right now it's quite hard to actually test a larger AR scene that involves walking, I feel that familiar controls like these would work quite well

Thanks for the comment. Yeah I have been thinking of improving controls in AR... Let me try some experiment.

I agree with @funwithtriangles . It would be really nice to have this. Also, what would be nice is being able to remove the mobile device in order to draw onto the actual environment from a headset perspective.
