Boston MA USA. ~50. Photos, comics, other stuff.
Here's the new Google Cardboard image with the template scaled up to match the raw output from the Spectacles underneath. It's gone from a 1.2Mpx screenshot on the iPhone 11 to a 10.3Mpx image in the template: an upgrade that's almost exponential.
It still drives me crazy that the two cameras are not color-corrected to match each other, and that there's no exposure correction to keep from blowing out an 8:00am sky.
But this is a good start.
More experiments with the Spectacles V3. The first image is Snapchat's output for Google Cardboard on an iPhone11 (still not working on Android). The full image is 750px highβnot even reaching the threshold of "high resolution"βand the circles themselves are 500px each. The second image is the raw output, obtained from a data request to Snapchat. I think I can piece together a better version of the 1st from the 2nd, depending on any lens distortion the Snapchat app is adding.
A stereoscopic comparison, uncropped:
β Pentax Asahi stereo adapter attached to the NIKKOR Z DX Silver kit lens (35γπ/5.6)
β Loreo 3D Lens-in-a-Cap 9005 (at the minimum π/11) socketed into the Nikon FTX adapter
β Snapchat Spectacles V3
Here's my Nikon Z fc with the new Pentax Asahi stereo adapter "attached" to the NIKKOR Z DX 16-50γ π/3.5-6.3 VR Silver kit lens. "Attached" is in quotes because while the adapter claims to be 49β, it's really more 47β, so I had to run a couple of layers of masking tape along the inside of the ring to make it fit the barrel of this 46β lens. 35γ definitely appears to be the sweet spot as far as focal length, and the adapter is apparently designed for an aperture of π/5.6-π/8.

More experiments with Snapchat #Spectacles 3: this is a photo of a color card, right out of the "camera" with no adjustments. The two stereo cameras are absolutely calibrated differently: the white balance of the left image is a bit too cold, the tint is way too green, and the levels are somewhat darker.
More #Spectacles experiments:
β’ It turns out that the user data request from Snapchat (link below) works only twice per day.
β’ There's just no way to control the exposure. Some skies are blown-out white.
β’ I wish there was a way to introduce a level indicator and focal point; clicking the button tends to tilt the glasses.
β’ I'm puttering away on a template for publishing out to Google Cardboard as well as stereo cards (which need fisheye correction).

Fun experiment of the day: I used the Lambdal Text-to-Pokemon generator with "Zip Martini" as the prompt to get the first image here. I then re-created the creature in 3D in Blender. The second image is using Blender's Freestyle settings to generate black outlines. The 3D object is available for viewing on Sketchfab here:

Well, the only way I was able to get workable images from my Spectacles V3 was by bypassing the app export entirely and requesting a data download from Snap. A couple of initial impressions:
β’ Stereo images are stored top/bottom
β’ The EXIF data describes the actual cameras as a pair of Ambarella H2's.
β’ The raw fisheye images are 6Mpx resolution, which is much better than I was expecting.
Sample image attached.
