Properties

VRFieldOfViewReadOnly.upDegrees Read only
The number of degrees upward that the field of view extends.
VRFieldOfViewReadOnly.rightDegrees Read only
The number of degrees to the right that the field of view extends.
VRFieldOfViewReadOnly.downDegrees Read only
The number of degrees downwards that the field of view extends.
VRFieldOfViewReadOnly.leftDegrees Read only
The number of degrees to the left that the field of view extends.

Examples

You wouldn't ever use this object directly; for some useful examples see the VRFieldOfView page.

To access the properties directly, you could do something like this:

var lEye = myHMDVRDevice.getEyeParameters('left');

lEye.recommendedFieldOfView.upDegrees
// returns something like 53.09438550469889
lEye.recommendedFieldOfView.rightDegrees
// returns something like 47.52769258067174
lEye.recommendedFieldOfView.downDegrees
// returns something like 53.09438550469889
lEye.recommendedFieldOfView.leftDegrees

  • [1] The support in Chrome is currently experimental. To find information on Chrome's WebVR implementation status including supporting builds, check out Bringing VR to Chrome by Brandon Jones.
  • [2] The support for this feature is currently disabled by default in Firefox. To enable WebVR support in Firefox Nightly/Developer Edition, you can go to about:config and enable the dom.vr* prefs. A better option however is to install the WebVR Enabler Add-on, which does this for you and sets up other necessary parts of the environment.
  • [3] The dom.vr* prefs are enabled by default at this point, in Nightly/Aurora editions.
