Overview

ArborXR Home is ArborXR's launcher for VR devices that locks down the device and prevents end users from accessing the device's native home environment.

The environment and the logo in the top left of the main app menu UI can be customized so users have a branded experience within VR.


Customize Environment

Option 1: ArborXR Lounge (Default)

πŸ’‘ ArborXR Lounge is a warm and welcoming 3D space and is the default environment for ArborXR Home.

  1. Navigate to the group or individual ungrouped device in question.

  2. Select the Kiosk Experience tab.

  3. In the Headset Experience section, select ArborXR Home.

  4. Scroll down to the Background section.

  5. Select ArborXR Lounge, if it is not already selected.
    ​

  6. Click Change Banner to upload a custom 1024 x 434px image to replace the default "ArborXR Home" banner.
    ​

  7. Select from one of the four skybox options.
    ​

  8. Scroll down and click Apply Changes.

Option 2: Custom 360Β° Image

πŸ’‘ Customize the ArborXR Home experience by using a custom 360Β° image as the background.

  1. Navigate to the group or individual ungrouped device in question.

  2. Select the Kiosk Experience tab.

  3. In the Headset Experience section, select ArborXR Home.

  4. Scroll down to the Background section.

  5. Select 360Β° Background.
    ​

  7. Scroll down and click Apply Changes.

Option 3: Custom 3D Environment (.gltf or .glb)

πŸ’‘ Customize the ArborXR Home experience by using a custom 3D environment (.gltf or .glb). This is in beta as we work towards fully productizing the feature.

🚩 Only available on the Essential and Enterprise Plans.

  1. Navigate to the Files page and upload the 3D environment .gltf or .glb file. Specify Android/obb/app.xrdm.launcher as the File Location. For more information about uploading files, see this article.
    ​

  2. Navigate to the group in question and configure ArborXR Lounge as the background.
    ​

  3. Add the 3D environment .gltf or .glb to the device/group. For more information about adding files to groups, see this article.

πŸ’‘

  • Feel free to use ArborXR's 3D environment, ArborXR Lounge, as a template and customize it according to your needs. Download the template from GitHub.

  • Only install one .gltf or .glb file per group. If multiple .gltf or .glb files are assigned to the same group, the first file will be used as the custom environment.

  • Once the .gltf or .glb file has installed on devices in the group, it will automatically be used as the background environment in ArborXR Home and override the ArborXR Lounge environment.

  • ​Limitation: The ArborXR Home preview will not display the custom 3D environment.


Customize Logo

  1. Navigate to the group in question.

  2. Scroll down to the Launcher Menu section.

  3. Under Upload Custom Menu Icon, select Change Icon Image.

πŸ’‘ By default, your organization icon is set as the Menu Icon but this can be overridden on a per group basis.
