Building a ggplot2 rollercoaster: Creating amazing 3D data visualizations in R
summary
Shows how to turn ggplot-derived 3D scenes into a ride by combining rayrender and rayshader to convert matrices or ggplots into 3D meshes, lighting, and animations; rollercoaster construction is automated in generate_rayshader_coaster() (interactive point picking) and output animated with animate_rollercoaster(); renders support path tracing, interactive camera editing, and export as stitched 360° MP4s for simple VR viewing with only a phone and cheap headset.
