Cassidy I'm on my way from France 🇫🇷! I'll be with Diego and Kieran Farr representing A-Frame in the Open Source Zone.

Open source maps + open source street design = 🩷 Announcing a 3DStreet integration with OpenStreetMap , bringing the power of community generated GIS to your spatial design projects. 3dstreet.org/blog/2024/10/2…

Another beautiful example of composability! Bringing @OpenStreetMap content straight to #WebXR thanks to @AFrameVR component loading the 3D buildings of a target location. Life-size, large plan on the floor or mini map or a floating table, it's all there in 2 imports and 1 line!

Fun quickie to show off the portability of A-Frame components, yesterday on the show floor at GitHub Universe, I borrowed Diego new Logitech MX Ink stylus (and his example code) to make a demo of drawing directly on 3DStreet scenes! What would you use this for?

Did you know? You can add any 3D model to your 3DStreet scene using the import from GLB feature. Here's a quick 2-min tutorial.

When customizing 3DStreet scenes it can helpful to add a unique flair by importing your own images into the scene. Here's a quick overview of how to do that -- in this example we place a speed limit sign in our scene and add it to the side of the road affixed to a lamppost.

Did you know that A-Frame, Three.js, and #webxr can be used to reimagine the built environment for a better tomorrow?

We're spreading the holiday cheer with improvements to one of our most popular features -- the 3DStreet Add Layer Panel now has beautiful category tabs and is full of preview thumbnails thanks to Rahul and Edward Wei's hard work!

Some new news!

It's time for more 3DStreet UGS: User Generated Streets! Featuring some additional examples of imported 3D models such as bridges and custom street safety elements.

Here's another batch sweet user created 3DStreet scenes! These users leveraged our built-in building models in some very creative ways including cloning, mix and matching styles (mixed use!), and experimentations with asymmetric scaling.

New blending options for Google Maps 3D map tiles just added to 3DStreet -- customize your scene's background environment, adjust animation speeds, and more! Read more: 3dstreet.org/blog/2025/01/3…

Fun with Google Maps 3D tiles color blending in 3DStreet

Can you use toys for urban planning tools? With AI you can quickly convert any toy into a placeable 3D model! I used TRELLIS from Microsoft to create GLB files of Hotwheels cars to place in 3DStreet scenes.

More user generated 3DStreet scenes -- today's theme is Plan View! Check out the Coyuca St design to provide conflict avoidance between turning motor vehicles and people on the sidewalk and cycle track.

Took a shot at optimizing bloom for Quest 2/3. Cheating a little bit, but the result looks good. And it runs at a nice 90fps. #threejs #WebXR

A-Frame 1.7.0 is out! 🚀 Post-processing, ES modules and import maps, WebGPU support, Logitech MX Ink integration and more. 26 A-Mazing A-Framers contributed to this release 🙏 Check the change log, see who they are and thank them! github.com/aframevr/afram… A-Frame

I know AI is all the rage but sometimes it's worth taking a moment and recognizing the awesome stuff our fellow humans are making. I'm blown away by the creativity of our 3DStreet users, no gen AI required :)
