@IngridHbn Ik kan je VR aanraden. Dat is Viewmaster on steroids. 😎👍 Ik heb een Meta Quest 3. De games zijn erg leuk, en je zit er helemaal in. Goed voor de nodige beweging ook.
@metin ah... nooit van gehoord :) 'nodige beweging' triggert al wat aandacht...
@metin kan je nog iets vertellen ivm wat je allemaal kan doen met die VR?

@IngridHbn 🧵 1/2

Het is 3D zoals je ook op de computer hebt (games en zo), maar dan zit je er volledig in, dus je kunt alle kanten op kijken doordat je een apparaat op je hoofd hebt, qua vorm ergens tussen een bril en helm.

Je hebt 360 graden 3D video's op o.a. YouTube die je echt het gevoel geven dat je ergens bent. Afgelopen week heb ik bijvoorbeeld een parachutesprong "gemaakt," door via een 3D camera op de helm van een parachutespringer te zien wat diegene ziet.

@IngridHbn 🧵 2/2

Je hebt sport en fitness games, zoals Synth Riders (zie video), waarbij je met twee controllers die je bewegingen registreren, één in elke hand, bepaalde lijnen en bollen moet raken en volgen. Dat soort games vormen een fijne workout.

Ik heb ook een game waarin je in een virtuele sportschool bokstraining doet. Dat is echt cardio fitness.

@metin is volgens mij iets wat ik aan het zoeken was, maar in gedachten nog niet kon concretiseren :)
@metin straks eens op het gemak bekijken
@Ingrid Hoeben  Ⓥ 🇧🇪 Never seen one in this colour, I only know them in red with a black switch.
@IngridHbn In de speelgoedkist van vroeger waar de kleinzoons nu nog lol mee hebben.
@IngridHbn
I know it. My elder brother got one and I think also in this colour 😊​,
@IngridHbn Wow! This brings back memories. Thanx for sharing! ☺️👍✨
@IngridHbn
I had a red one as a kid. The real life 3d images it showed were way cooler than any kaleidescope
@IngridHbn Grandparents had one, I remember playing with it. I have absolutely no memory what any of the pictures were.
@IngridHbn naam ben ik vergeten maar had het ooit wel gehad toen ik klein was

I have a few bakelite viewers, several hundred rather old reels and a collection of stereo cameras including an original ViewMaster. They're still amazing machines.

@IngridHbn

@IngridHbn Yes, the same beige, with accessories beginning with Finland (it was a present from a Canadian aunt whose husband worked for the embassy in Helsinki at the time), Batman, Disneyland, Flipper.

@IngridHbn

I had one when I was a child. And a cardboard box with stereoscopic pairs of Barcelona, ​​where we had visited with my parents (We lived in Lérida, 140km. away)
It was at home for a long time after the photos were lost. Some time after it disappeared I became interested in stereography again, and learned to visualize stereophotographs with the naked eye. Today, presbyopia and age have greatly diminished that ability.

@IngridHbn I think they still sell them. My kids had one when they were younger, and they're still in secondary school.
@IngridHbn Still have one with some discs for the Grand Canyon https://flic.kr/p/79Wzv3

@IngridHbn

I have several that I use to help my students understand how 3D imaging systems work. I give them two with the discs in opposite directions. The challenge is to figure out which one is backwards.

@IngridHbn My first VR eyephones, sometime in the 70's ;)
@IngridHbn Still works! Just watched a reel on the U-505 at MSI in Chicago. 😍
@IngridHbn On that same theme, I spotted this at the US Space & Rocket Center this weekend. Very much a Baader-Meinhof phenomenon.
@IngridHbn I had one of these as a kid.
@IngridHbn I whiled away more than one wintry evening with that. I remember when one could buy slides at souvenir shops at various tourist destinations around the country. I had one from Mount Rushmore.
@IngridHbn Also had one of these, a GAF ViewMaster projector. Must have been somewhere in the early seventies.
@VastBee did not know so many versions existed.. great to see how many unique stories (and photos) came with this toot.
@IngridHbn I think quality photos are vintage only now.
@IngridHbn owyeah… the original ViewMaster…
