A test on Firefox doesn't work well.)\n\nWithout a new smartphone taken into account, the total cost will be no more than 10 US dollars.\n\n## Quick Start\n\n![](screenshots/index.jpg)\n\nIt may take you some time to download the resources during the first start. And you will see a few options on the screen. Note that, when you are viewing at PC, the \"Enter VR\" button will be disabled, at which time, you may click the \"try without headset\" button for viewing.\n\nThe \"Settings\" button would allow users to set various parameters, including the visibility of HUD (head-up displays) and manipulation of the time. You can make things faster or slower as you want.\n\nFor help info, simply tap the \"About\" button for a detailed explanation.\n\n![](screenshots/vr_effect.jpg)\n\nIf you have a gamepad, keep it connected with the phone. And after entered the VR mode, you may put the phone into your cardboard and enjoy.\n\n## Control\n\n### Joystick Control\n\nEarthVR supports R1 gamepad control.\n\n- **Axis 0 \u0026 1**: Rotating about the earth\n- **B5** `⏎` + **Axis 1**: Zooming\n- **B3** (sometimes `A`): Faster time\n- **B2** (sometimes `C`): Slower time\n- **B4** `◯`: Toggling HUD\n\n### Mouse \u0026 Keyboard Control\n\nWhen using a PC, the VR effect will not work. You can simply use your mouse and keyboard to navigate.\n- **Left mouse button**: Rotating about axis\n- **Right mouse button** and `←` `↑` `↓` `→`: Moving around the scene\n- **Mouse wheel**: Zooming\n\n## Credits\n- The well-known [jQuery](https://jquery.com/)\n- Mr.doob's fantastic WebGL library [three.js](https://threejs.org/)\n- Thanks to [WebVR Polyfill](https://github.com/immersive-web/webvr-polyfill) , we can use WebVR without a special browser build\n- Dependency of WebVR Polyfill, [ES6-Promise](https://github.com/stefanpenner/es6-promise)\n- [Google WebVR UI](https://github.com/googlevr/webvr-ui)\n- Simple yet beautiful [Materialize](https://materializecss.com/).css\n\n## Author\nCelestial Phineas @ ZJU\n\n## License\nMIT\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcelestialphineas%2Fearthvr","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fcelestialphineas%2Fearthvr","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fcelestialphineas%2Fearthvr/lists"}
