XR Camera Multiplayer for Meta Quest - Photon Fusion

XR Camera Multiplayer for Meta Quest showcases how Photon Fusion leverages the new Meta Camera API to share local photos with peers in realtime for collaborative education, support, or games. Any user can tap the watch button (or controller primary) to take a photo with the headset camera. Then, a textured photo prefab appears for every participant once the reliable transfer is complete. With hand-tracking, voice, resolution switching, and congestion safeguards already wired up, you can drop the logic into production or extend it as a learning baseline.

⚡ Key Features ⚡

Shared Authority Topology

All peers own their avatars and spawned photos; if a user disconnects, authority is transferred automatically to maintain session consistency.

Reliable Photo Streaming

Uses Fusion SendReliableDataToPlayer to transfer down-sampled JPEG texture prefab to every client; default 512 × 512 images propagate under two seconds on typical home uplinks.

Bandwidth Control & Cooldown

Use streamRatio to downsample oversized frames, and a built-in cooldown prevents congestion; HUD feedback shows when capture is available again.

Watch UI & Controller Input

Touch-sensitive wristwatch and primary-button shortcut trigger captures; haptic pulses and visual cues confirm success locally.

👉 Hand-Tracking Rig Sync

XRShared + MetaCoreIntegration add-ons handle controller and finger-tracking hands, grabbing, and teleporting so your avatars stay aligned across clients.

💬 Voice Chat Integration

VoiceHelpers add-on provides low-latency positional VoIP; audio begins once Fusion matchmaking is successful.

⚠ Need Video Streaming?

Need continuous video? Photon Camera Video SDK integration for Meta Quest is available to Photon Circle members.

Runtime Resolution Switcher

The left-hand settings button lists all Meta Camera resolutions supported by firmware v74/v76; the stream instantly adapts to the chosen size.

Quick Setup

Paste Fusion and Voice AppIds, build, and Auto Matchmaking drops players into a shared room—no extra menus required.
