desktop-xr-plane

Overview

A component to simulate WebXR XRPlanes, while running on a desktop system

Schema

This component has no schema. Simulated planes are configured via the plane geometry configured on the same element.

Usage

Configure an a-plane (or other element with a plane geometry) with the desired position, size, rotation and appearance (can be invisible if desired)

Then add the desktop-xr-planecomponent

<a-plane width="2"
         height="2"
         position="1 1 0"
         rotation="0 -90 0"
         color="white"
         wireframe="true"
         desktop-xr-plane>
</a-plane>

Limitations

Does not support the scale attribute on the element - scale is assumed to be 1 1 1

Only supports rectangles. The WebXR standard supports XRPlanes that are arbitrary polygons, so this is a limitation vs. the WebXR standard. However note that as of July 2023, the Meta Quest room setup process always generates rectangles (even for the ceiling and floor of a non-rectangular room). So it’s possible to simulate all XRPlanes that can be generated by Meta Quest room setup.
