    I updated my #PlayCanvas timeline concept with some typed subtitles.

    Canvatorium Lab 004 (revamped)

    In the revamped version of Lab 004 I worked on a way to pass the xr object from the useCanvatoriumLab composable to the createLabContent function.

    I took a short break from the labs to tidy up the Canvatorium site.

    ✅ Added a new tab bar
    ✅ Lab (the canvas with the scene)
    ✅ Lab notes (unrendered markdown for now
    ✅ Hacked the style of the webxr button
    ✅ Added the lab title as a GUI overlay

    Canvatorium Lab 041

    ? Taking screenshots (sceneshots?) with Babylon JS

    I also added a screenshot button to the global lab overlay. Here is a quick demo

    My lab template for Canvatorium is now only 22 lines.
    This template will create a Babylon JS scene with my default lab options (room, lights, camera).
    All the work for the lab will happen in the createLabContent function

    Canvatorium Lab 040

    I started working on an overlay GUI for the scene data. Title, description, and maybe lab notes.

    If it pans out, I’ll add it to all labs.

    I could use the same GUI content inside a mesh-based AdvancedDynamicTexture to show it while in VR 🤔

    There’s a timer in this coffee shop that sounds *exactly* like the alarm clock from Superliminal 😳

    I just found this little gem in my journal.

    You can call it orthographic mode all you want. I call it losing perspective.
