Inspiration
Interactive, hands-on learning is proven to work best but most kids never get it. AR/VR can deliver that "actually there" feeling- but headsets are expensive, out of reach for most families. Even where VR/AR exists in schools, it's rigid - same experience for every kid, zero adaptiveness. We wanted the immersion, without the cost or the one-size-fits-all.
What it does
No headset. Just fold a phone into a cardboard VR holder you can build yourself. Step into a live 3D classroom - real AI teacher, real lesson, real classmates around you. Raise your actual hand to ask a question - the teacher pauses, answers, solves it on the board, resumes. Phone camera reads your gestures - no controller, no buttons. Runs fully in the browser - any phone, zero install.
How we built it
3D classroom: Three.js + React Three Fiber AI backend generates the entire lesson live - teaching, peer questions, doubts - nothing scripted Gesture tracking on-device via webcam/phone camera - nothing leaves the browser Designed our own cardboard VR phone holder so anyone can go immersive without buying hardware Built with Codex on GPT-5.6 - one setup for app + AI logic, another for 3D/avatar work
Challenges we ran into
Getting a smooth, immersive VR-style experience running in-browser, on a phone Designing a cardboard holder that actually balances a phone properly - early builds kept tipping, took several passes to fix weight distribution Accomplishments we're proud of We didn't simulate VR - we made it genuinely accessible A kid with just a phone and a piece of cardboard gets the same immersive classroom as anyone with a $500 headset Every lesson is live AI, not canned content
What we learned
Immersion comes from timing and small details, not just graphics Kid-safety can be built into the AI's structure, not bolted on after
What's next
Lip-synced avatars for true face-to-face feel Parent progress dashboard Multiple kids joining the same virtual classroom together Video Link https://youtu.be/PLkqxBCa92U?si=Rqp9Bcwk9NMWTI2i "Try it out" links https://frontend-eosin-nu-67.vercel.app/
