Varjo Teleport launches today. The service costs $30 per month and is available for both professional and individual users.
Teleport digitizes rooms or outdoor locations so that they can be explored with a PC VR headset. The locations are first scanned with a smartphone. Teleport then reconstructs the scene with accurate lighting, shading, textures, and reflections using Gaussian Splatting.
Varjo headsets and other OpenXR-based PC VR devices are supported. Alternatively, the digital duplicates can be viewed on a smartphone or PC monitor.
You can sign up for the service on the official website.
For anyone who is curious, gaussian splatting is a wild new scene reconstruction method.
Corridor Digital has a video on it that demonstrates why it is so earth shattering in the computer graphics space.
I tried to run the Teleport PC client with my Index but it didn’t work. I get an empty black space with a few white words stuck to my left controller.
