Web-Based Virtual Reality Websites
A lot of folks don’t realize there are a LOT of FREE web-based Virtual Reality experiences out there. Many of them are rather sophisticated, others not so much.
Depending upon the VR headset you are using, just open a particular browser in the headset (if you are using an Oculus Quest, just open the Browser from the home navigation tool). Some browsers work better than others on other headsets – Mozilla’s Firefox WebVR browser is typically best.
Here are some webpages you can check out (I suggest you bookmark them in your VR headset’s browser so you can come back to them often – nothing like free games and experiences):
- Moonrider at http://moonrider.xyz
- Soundboxing at https://www.soundboxing.co
- VeeR at https://veer.tv
- Mozilla Web VR Hubs at https://hubs.mozilla.com
- Web VR Directory at https://webvr.directory
- Web VR on Sidequest at https://sidequestvr.com/#/webvr
- Web VR Experiments at https://experiments.withgoogle.com/collection/webvr
- Mixed Reality for the Open Web at https://mixedreality.mozilla.org
- 3D/VR/AR/360° Hub at https://briandavidphillips.net/vr
WebVR is particularly neat in that the VR elements are platform-independant so you can play the same games from the web on whatever headset you are using from Vive to Rift to Focus to Go to Quest and even Google Cardboard (that last one is an excellent option for students and educational institutions in terms of quick and cheap intro, but not for quality).
Fun fact, YOU CAN BUILD YOUR OWN WEB VR experiences and even multiplayer meeting rooms or games. Some systems are more coding heavy than others but it’s worth looking around for some resources.
Enjoy these worthwhile resources. However, do be sure to join us at 3D/VR/AR/360° Taiwan on Facebook and if you are in Taiwan, be sure to join us for live seminars and workshops with the Taiwan Virtual Reality Meetup.
