With many of us working from home, virtual meetings have become the norm. But one challenging aspect of these online meetings led Lorraine Underwood to develop this cool Raspberry Pi project. Frustrated with the inability to look around at her colleagues, she decided to develop a solution with the help of VR!
One Raspberry Pi camera setup is needed for each guest. The setup uses a Raspberry Pi to host a webserver. This server allows guests to connect and look around the room.

A Raspberry Pi camera provides visual data for the VR headset to display to the wearer. If you don't have a VR headset, you can still move the camera around through the web server by using the arrow buttons.
You can check it out live next Tuesday on our next episode of 3DTested's Picast! Lorraine is our special guest and will be joining us for a full demonstration.
