How to use Frame VR

To help you use Frame VR, we have written a step-by-step tutorial below:

System Requirements:

• Mac, PC or Chromebook: Google Chrome

• Phone or Tablet:

  • iOS: Safari

  • Android: Google Chrome

This is the easiest part, as all you need to do is to visit https://framevr.io/ on your web browser.

A frame can be on one of two settings:

• Single user mode: Where you are the only person viewing the FRAME much like a virtual gallery or museum

• Multi user mode: Much more interactive and you are able to talk, chat, screen share and switch on your camera

The school Frame has been set to single user mode to allow you to practice navigating: https://framevr.io/knoxpreppresentations 

Use the WASD keys on your keyboard to move around the space.

• W: Forward

• A: Left

• S: Backwards

• D: Right

Left click and hold while moving the mouse to look around the space.

If you want to move the room, use Q and E keys to move the space to the left and right

To speak, unmute your microphone and activate your camera. Once you do so and once you have activated your 'Avatar Cam' (see above), you are ready to speak and show yourself like a regular video conference. 

From left to right, there are a few options:

• Microphone - If activated (blue), you can speak. If deactivated (red), you will be muted. This space has “spatial” voice or sound features so that if you are farther away from someone, you will not be able to hear that person loud enough. Also, the designer of the room may have activated special voice zones, so that only in some zones of the room will the voice features be available.

• Megaphone - If you use it, you can speak anywhere in the room and people will hear you in the space.

• Webcam - Allows you to show your camera feed.

• Settings - Lets you modify the settings for yourself
