WebVR 3D Map Experiment

This demonstrates an experimental virtual reality interaction using a mobile browser to fly around a representation of a real-world city. Enter the name of a location in the text box below to search for a location to visit. Scan (or right-click and copy) the QR code for a link to open in mobile Chrome or Firefox. Touch and drag in any direction to move around the space. You will move in whatever direction you're dragging, taking into account the direction the device is pointing. You can shake the phone quickly to turn around 180 degrees.

If you don't have an Android phone, you can look around with WASD keys and move with the arrow keys

Load this site in an experimental WebVR build of either Firefox or Chrome. When the Rift is connected, hit the "Enter" key or click the "VR" button to enter full-screen VR mode. Hit "Escape" to exit VR and release the mouse cursor.
