This seems like it could have exciting implications for VR.

Even after many years, one of my favourite things to do in VR is Google Earth. Yet, as a developer, it's a frustratingly closed platform.

I understand that they don't want me to put steampunk zeppelins into the world, but I so very want that.



What vr platform supports it?

I’d love to have some kind of remote robot that live streams to me as it goes around somewhere remote. Yes this has many obvious problems, but to be able to be in Tokyo for a few hours, hear the environment and direct what I want to see would be incredibly exciting to me.


I primarily work in Unity, but I'm not sure if that answers your question?
