Add option to display in VR mode.

For use with cheap, cardboard-type VR headsets- which use the phone as their displays.

The basic version would be to just render the terminal in two identical panes side by side. This would instantly allow hammock terminals.

A stretch goal could be to allow camera pass through, so users could navigate the world while in a VR terminal. I suspect this may clash with some of your performance values though.

If that wasn’t offensive to you, then a second stretch goal would be to use iOS augmented reality kit to give the terminal a real position in the user’s 3D space. Not sure how the user would control its position.

We had AR experiment

That’s awesome, and demonstrates you’ve already played with what I’d thought would be the hardest part of this idea!

I think there is a pretty big difference though, between the utility of AR in the handset vs a headset, so I really look forward to the next such experiment!

If I could just have a QR code where I’d like my terminal to appear, that would be very ideal... https://youtu.be/I57qbfF3a7Y

Is this what the camera permission is needed for?

@egberts, no. Camera access permission is needed for facecam command.
