Wish cardboard API

[freedom2000]

Hi all,

I have recently tested Cardboard App

I did it, not with the original "cardboard", but with an old stereography device.

and I must say that the result is really impressive.

I saw that the API is open : https://developers.google.com/cardboard/overview

It would be nice to wrap this library into B4A

Very interesting

I have just tested the Cardboard app too and it is impressive.

Maybe this API is still immature but the things that can be made today are fantastic.

A cardboard library would be great. I like this 360° videos and panoramas very much. Two of my customers in the tourism branche are interested in a app. Maybe its possible in B4A.

The cardboard API is available (https://developers.google.com/cardboard/android/download, github https://github.com/googlesamples/cardboard-java) and also a sample project (https://developers.google.com/cardboard/android/get-started).

I have no knowledge in generating a library for B4A and hope some of you could help and develop this

I developed some time ago a simple cardboard viewer lib, I could resuscitate that project since I wrote it out of boredom. It doesn't support 360 images, but it's fun to use cardboard...for 5 minutes then back to the junk drawer .

This would be a nice lib!

Well, here it is, note that it is a VERY SIMPLE viewer, I wrote that lib like in 20 minutes just to fool around.

You need the Picasso library.

Just copy the SimpleCardboardView.jar and SimpleCardboardView.xml to your additional libraries directory.

Get the sample code HERE
