To celebrate @Replit’s 10 year anniversary, I’ve submitted a project I built called “Call Pano”. This is a video conferencing application (like Zoom) that’s allows participants to use consumer grade 360 cameras. Coolest part is users can join from VR headsets and it’s like your in the room speaking to the other person. No avatars, no floating heads, full VR video calling.
Give it a try and tell @Replit Call Pano deserves to win today’s #buildathon

Built with Replit, for Replit. Can’t make a simpler business! Enabling the data and organization a Replit builder needs to capture R&D credits!
@NFTRVN@Starlink I put my mini roam in a hard shell case with a 300watt battery pack. Just open case, plug in and orient the dish for alignment. Makes taking it places super convenient!
@Replit has about 500,000 professional users. If each of these averages $1k to $5k in spend related to Ai, hosting, compute etc. and 70-80% of those users fail to claim R&D Tax Credits, they are leaving $2 to $8 million on the table. Replit pros can use My Dev Costs to seamlessly track expenses and categories Replit billing makes ambiguous and confusing. Don’t leave money on the table!

@nickco Now just use https://t.co/bCP4O7x8Pk to easily track project costs and organize for research and development tax credits. The Replit community is leaving millions of dollars on the table!
@Replit builders! Don’t miss out on R&D Tax Credits! Replit claims to have about 500,000 professional users. If those users spent $1k to $5k on things like Ai tokens to build, compute, hosting etc. and 80% of users don’t claim the credit they are leaving $2-$8 million on the table!
https://t.co/PQUHcLezra was built using Replit, for Replit. Easily track your costs and capture the value left on the table. We make Replit expenses easy!

Google Omni is nuts. In less than 2 minutes made this test “gold shoe” demo ad. Text wasn’t specified but really impressed with the story board, quality and SPEED.
@raymmar@Replit I built a real time 360 video calling tool that works on any device including VR headsets. All with Replit and it works great!
One person, no coding, maybe 10 hours of tinkering. I wonder how much Zoom spent building their first platform.
Who knows, maybe it can grass roots its own Zoom like community. I’ve thought it could be useful in a number of industries including real estate. Imagine a real estate agent walking around a property in real time talking to a client and they can be “in the space looking around freely” while talking to the agent in the tour. Plus a number of applications! And I also think phones will get more and more comparable to 360 video. We already have front and back lenses, thats half the battle.
Call Pano is a platform I vibed in existence that allows users to utilize 360 cameras as web cams and access the other viewers VR headsets. You can enter full view of call participants in VR and it feels like you’re standing in their room while you talk to them in real time.
Real #VR video calling. No avatars, no floating heads. Consumer grade gear, no downloads, accessible on any device.

@tutones1 And they were just on their smart phone, but can click with their finger and move around the video feed like it’s on desktop. Built this for my own enjoyment and hope others get the same enjoyment!
The other night I had the camera on the selfie stick, with long usb-cable to my computer and just followed my 1 year old around like I’m extreme sport filming and the in laws could watch and move around to keep it. It’s a seriously fun experience and gives people control over where they are looking that you just don’t get on anything else.
The ultimate set up. 360 cam plugged into computer to serve as your camera. Then enter meeting on VR headset (also works with AR glasses like unreal which is actually my favorite method to join meeting), and the other person the same set up. Then you can be in their camera talking to them in their space and they are in your space talk to you. Granted you’re both in VR headsets, but I still think that cool and the closest thing to VR video calling I’ve seen!
Works on any VR headset from Meta Quest to Apple Vision Pro. It’s all Web XR powered. On a computer, log in, connect your insta360 camera (I use an X4 model), then that meeting link (like zoom) if opened on VR gives them that option. I access the meeting on my vr headset by sending a Google calendar invite, and then access web browser on vr headset and going to my calendar and clicking the link like a zoom meeting, from the invite. Then select “VR” enter your name like in my video and then you see the other participant screen then there is a “VR” button in the top left corner.
All this works on any device so even if they are on a desktop computer they can click your 360 webcams tile and look around.
Will be making some more tutorial video and hopefully making the ui a little smoother too. First of its kind and doesn’t require any downloads! Just access he links on any web browser and everything works, even on browser ok VR headset.
Thank you! I’ve loved 360 cameras and hated that Zoom would do a split screen if you use it as web cam, and didn’t at all cater to the potential with stitched 360 video experience.
It’s been AWESOME sharing experiences with family. In laws throw on a VR headset and it’s like they are in the room with my wife, son and I in the living room. The reaction from older generations is what gets me most excited. Every reaction starts with “oh wow!”. Great first reaction to get from a user.
