It’s a great development environment. It has a very large “Maker Community” with a great following, and support. Also, Network-Aframe, which is a multi-user version of VR talk with WebXR, and WebRTC, enabled in a browser, allows you to communicate inside a VR headset. So setting that up with the Pi on a home network provides for “no additional cost hosting” (since you already pay for your internet connection anyway), and no latency response over wi-fi (say with an Oculus Quest 2) locally. But still, all accessible over the internet too.

I believe it to be an elegant, affordable solution for someone on a budget, or who just likes to tinker, as well as a great learning tool for those wanting to code VR for the metaverse.

Ultimately, this little metaverse server on a Pi has the potential of opening up and combining VR with IoT for the home, and edge computing, possibly even AI, if paired with something like a Google’s Coral, or integrate with Nvidia’s Jetson or Xavier in future articles.
