Using 360 Tours in Meta Quest

Once inside the SENTIO VR app, accessing and exploring 360 tours is simple and intuitive. Here’s how to get started:

a. Entering a 360 tour

  • Select the tab labeled “360 Tours” or click directly on the thumbnail of the tour you want to explore.
  • The first panorama image will load in your headset, along with tooltips that provide basic instructions.
  • Use the controller button to close these tooltips and begin navigating freely.

b. Open VR Menu to access advanced tools and scene controls:

  • Press the left controller button with three horizontal lines to open the VR menu.

c. Available Options in the VR Menu:

  • Scenes: Browse and jump to any panorama in the tour via clickable thumbnails.

  • Floor Plan: Navigate using a top-down floor plan, if one has been uploaded
  • Cast: Share your VR session live via a browser URL — great for external displays.
  • Draw: Mark up your renderings with sketches directly on the 360 images
  • Note: Add sticky notes or annotations to call out ideas or issues
  • Meetings: Start or join a live collaboration session. Share 4-digit PIN with other Meta Quest users

d. Skip the VR menu entirely by using just the right controller:

Press the trigger button, and:

  • Tilt right to move to the next panorama.
  • Tilt left to go back to the previous one.

Ideal for quick reviews or when presenting without menu interaction.
