FrameVR in EDU
The folxs over at FrameVR are doing some amazing things. I think one of the coolest updates is the ability to upload your own envrionment. FrameVR accepts .glb models and will create a navigation mesh auto-magically, meaning walls are walls, and floors are walkable. As far as projects are concerned, this is a really cool update. Tinkercad is free to use and you can export your creations as a .glb file. Students could build cities, towns, statues, whatever their mind comes up with! Learn more about their updates here.
