VRPose
Deprecated
Avoid using this feature in new projects. Development of the WebVR API halted in favor of WebXR. This feature may be a candidate for removal from web standards or browsers.
Consider using the following features instead: WebXR.
Non-standard: This feature is not standardized. We do not recommend using non-standard features in production, as they have limited browser support, and may change or be removed. However, they can be a suitable alternative in specific cases where no standard option exists.
The VRPose interface of the WebVR API represents the state of a VR sensor at a given timestamp (which includes orientation, position, velocity, and acceleration information).
Note: This interface was part of the old WebVR API. It has been superseded by the WebXR Device API.
This interface is accessible through the VRDisplay.getPose() and VRDisplay.getFrameData() methods. VRDisplay.getPose() is deprecated.
Instance properties
VRPose.positionRead only-
Returns the position of the
VRDisplayat the currentVRFrameData.timestampas a 3D vector VRPose.linearVelocityRead only-
Returns the linear velocity of the
VRDisplayat the currentVRFrameData.timestamp, in meters per second. VRPose.linearAccelerationRead only-
Returns the linear acceleration of the
VRDisplayat the currentVRFrameData.timestamp, in meters per second per second. VRPose.orientationRead only-
Returns the orientation of the sensor at the current
VRFrameData.timestamp, as a quaternion value. VRPose.angularVelocityRead only-
Returns the angular velocity of the
VRDisplayat the currentVRFrameData.timestamp, in radians per second. VRPose.angularAccelerationRead only-
Returns the angular acceleration of the
VRDisplayat the currentVRFrameData.timestamp, in meters per second per second.
Examples
See VRDisplay.getFrameData() for example code.
Specifications
This interface was part of the old WebVR API that has been superseded by the WebXR Device API. It is no longer on track to becoming a standard.
Until all browsers have implemented the new WebXR APIs, it is recommended to rely on frameworks, like A-Frame, Babylon.js, or Three.js, or a polyfill, to develop WebXR applications that will work across all browsers. Read Meta's Porting from WebVR to WebXR guide for more information.
