@dbraun

So you did the interview ? Did they answer all of the questions you listed ? Especially the 9 concerning the latency and the synchronization of the two Theta Vs.

@dbraun We did the interview, it was really cool talking with Professor Ikei. He’s really into continuing to improve the project, he says it’s not completed yet, he wants to work on stability and other issues. He is planning to build a THETA V plug-in to better improve control of the camera angles and more.

Here’s the link to the interview, just posted:

THETA Stereo Vision and Tactile Feedback Transmission Over The Internet with TwinCam Go

[image] We’re closer than you think. In the movies, VR transports people to a world filled with sights, sounds, and touch. As software developers and hardware engineers, we know that world is far away. Or, is it? theta360.guide interviewed Professor Yasushi Ikei of Tokyo Metropolitan University about TwinCam Go, his research project that transmits vision, sound, and motion over wide-area networks. Professor Ikei has an Engineering Ph.D. from Tokyo University and conducts research on virtual r…
