News The Roddenberry Archive brings every iteration of Star Trek’s USS Enterprise bridge to life

And now I can't unsee it and I have so many questions.

 

Was there not already a vr Roddenberty museum a few years ago, as i remember walking about it with the Oculus cv1, it was quite well done.

 

There was one on Sansar, which had a strange bootleg TOS virtual bridge with off-brand graphics, a cool tour of a museum made to look like levels of a warp core while getting to see uniforms and stuff and a big model of the Planet of the Titan's Enterprise.

 

^^That is it, sansar, i thought it was inside another app........and yes the Titan Enterprise looked great in vr.

 

yes - OTOY actually provided the TOS 3D assets for the Sansar Roddenberry museum. Those models were created by Geoff Holman who has been working with me and Rod on these prior iterations of the Roddenberry Archive for over 20 years now!

We are definitely exploring more support for VR support down the line, but we will need about double the speed of a 4090 GPU to get there without sacrificing the quality or detail we have in windowed mode for the full interactive environment.

In the meantime, we are using light field explorable volumes (~ a cubic meter per volume), which we are adding to Apple Vision Pro app as they get completed. We shipped one for launch, but more are coming, and we are working to make the explorable volume larger. We are also looking to expand the live streams on AVP to 180 3D as cloud GPUs get more powerful.

 

I love the McQuarrieprise--any orthos?

I'm still having trouble getting the navigation to load, it spins for a while and then gives up. Ive tried Firefox, Edge and Chrome. It used to work on this computer, but not recently.

 

very odd. where are you located and could you send a screenshot to help@oroy.com :9 we can try to fix?

thanks!

 

Rod and I will be at NAB in two weeks talking about the Roddenberry Archive:

Enjoy! The team did just incredible work on these new interiors and ships.

 

I was hoping they'd do the painted extension at the end! Awesome stuff

 

This update also added Ready Rooms to all the NX-01 bridge variants

 

Huh... Never knew they had a Masonic Knight Templar Past Commander's ceremonial dress sword up there. I have one that looks nearly identical to that. I also have a Kukri somewhere that looks a lot like the one on the lower left with the scabbard and the twin mini-blades (Karda & Chakmak). Is this from the Mirror NX-01? Seems considerably over-weaponed for a prime universe set dressing.

 

Yes, you can see Cochrane's shotgun at the bottom

 

I spent an embarrassing amount of time banging into the wall trying to get the door to open in the little connecting room between the NX-01 bridge and ready room after the prior update, so thanks for the heads up.

 

AH! That makes sense. Thank you for posting that.
