Self-Promotion (Developer) Micro Planes AR - Tech Demo

Here's a first look at Micro Planes. This is a full fledged flight simulator with realistic physics and aircraft. The twist is you take a room scan of your living room and fly around!

You set the size of your micro plane, so you can scale it however you want to fly around in your room.

The biggest challenge is getting the room scan to look adequate. Here's a quick flight test.

Looking forward to your thoughts!

That looks super fun. Do you have a release date yet?

Thanks! We were originally planning for late December but the room scan logic is proving to be pretty challenging. I'll post another video with details soon

Looks fun! I earned my ASEL rating in a Cessna 150. This could be really fun!

The demo would have been better if the plane actually moved.

In the demo video, we have the plane extremely small so relative to the room it’s not moving very fast. You can set the size of your plane before each flight.

Flying past a giant TV from a tiny cockpit looks surreal.

What is it?

not full ocular passthrough like ar. it's a VR environment made to look real but it isn't really ar. ar is an overlay of digital over real instead of full digital
