Virtual Reality OS: Open Source, Of Singapore
summary
Argues there’s a missing universal layer: an open-source VR OS idea that launches VR apps across headsets and ordinary phones, not just GearVR/Daydream. Demonstrates a workflow: 360 spherical capture stitched with Kolor, wrap 360 onto sphere in Blender/Unity, add gaze-triggered interactivity to make live-action scenes navigable. Shows a built proof — a 50‑artist exhibition captured spherically, exported into Unity with gaze menus and accepted to IEEE VR — and claims an OS/browser could unify stores and inputs across devices.
