Janus VR transforms webpages into multi-dimensional spaces connected by portals. Users launch from a private pocketspace dashboard, accessing bookmarked sites or popular webspaces. They walk or fly through these immersive environments on PC, viewing 3D models, animations, spatial audio-video, and data visualizations.
In social mode, avatars at the same webspace see, talk, chat, and interact with others. Party mode lets users broadcast their cyberspace movements. A user-developer community crafts thousands of webspaces spanning art, architecture, education, games, and live entertainment, all editable with game controllers or keyboard-and-mouse. This indie simulation draws explorers and creators eager to navigate the web collaboratively.
Janus VR - The World Within the Web
Janus VR is an immersive and collaborative internet browser. Named after the Roman God of passages, Janus VR re-imagines webpages as multi-dimensional spaces, linked by portals. Users experience 3D models, animations, spatial audio-video, and amazing data visualizations built as webpages, in an intuitive VR context. Any current webpage, hosted anywhere, can be viewed in Janus VR. Users enter Janus VR in a private homepage called the "pocketspace", that is their dashboard to the immersive web, with portals to popular or bookmarked webspaces, and other people online. Opening these portals allows users to embark on an endless journey, literally walking or flying through the internet, with others or on their own. In social mode, user avatars at the same webspace, can see, talk, chat and interact with each other. Users in party mode can even broadcast their movement in cyberspace. Our growing user-developer community has built thousands of diverse webspaces for users to explore with content ranging from art to architecture, education, games, and live entertainment. These experiences can be built and edited in Janus VR itself, using both spatially tracked game controllers and keyboard-and-mouse. Janus VR is a powerful combination of web content, VR and the collective imagination of our users.
