Couldn't find a way to cast my phone to Quest 3... so I coded one myself!

 




A lot of people have been searching for a way to cast their phone screen to Quest 3.

Honestly, so was I.

As a drone pilot who loves FPV, I had one simple wish when I got my Quest 3: I wanted to fly my DJI drone while wearing the headset, putting the live camera feed right onto a massive VR screen.

I searched everywhere but couldn’t find a smooth, reliable solution that worked for me.

So, I did what any developer would do—I built one myself.

That’s how Tendy Link (Phone Cast) came to life.

But to be completely honest, once I finished coding it and started testing, I realized its potential goes way beyond what I initially imagined. It’s not just about checking notifications or watching YouTube anymore. The real magic is: It brings the entire Android ecosystem seamlessly into Quest.

My mind is already racing with all the fun things we can do with this:

🔹 Flying a drone with DJI Fly inside Quest 3 (Next video topic!)

🔹 Driving FPV RC cars with a giant VR viewpoint

🔹 Hooking up a digital microscope for massive macro visuals

🔹 Doing close-up cinematic camera movements with Gunpla models...

I truly believe that sometimes the best projects don't come from market research—they come from a pure desire to play and experiment.

If this tool that I built just for fun happens to help other Quest 3 players who share the same pain point, that makes it even better.

This video is a quick walkthrough and submission demo of Tendy Link's vertical and horizontal casting modes. The app is currently going through the review process!

In the next video, I’ll be dropping a full hands-on feature of the "DJI Fly VR Big Screen" experience! If you want to see what it's like to fly a drone inside Quest 3, make sure to subscribe and hit the notification bell so you don't miss it!

Quest 3 終於可以看手機了!Tendy Link 將 Android 畫面帶進 VR

 


很多 Quest 3 用戶一直希望,可以把手機畫面顯示在 VR 裡。
其實,我也是。
我是空拍機玩家,很喜歡 FPV,一直很想戴著 Quest 3 操作 DJI Fly,把手機畫面放到 VR 的大螢幕中。
找了很久,都沒有找到真正符合需求的方法。
所以最後,我決定自己做一個。
這就是 Tendy Link Phone Cast
一開始只是想解決自己的需求。
真正做出來之後才發現,它的用途比我想像的更多。
除了查看手機畫面之外,它還可以應用在:
  • DJI Fly 空拍機 
  • 遙控車
  • 顯微鏡
  • 模型拍攝(像鋼彈運鏡)
  • 更多 Android App
很多以前只能盯著 6 吋手機螢幕做的事情,現在都可以直接在 Quest 的大螢幕裡觀看。
注意:Phone Cast 是將手機畫面同步顯示到 Quest 中,並不是遠端操作手機。操作仍然是在手機上完成。

📌 下一支影片,我會分享 DJI Fly + Quest 3 的實際體驗。
那也是我最初開發這個功能的原因。
如果這個功能也正是你一直在找的,希望它能對你有所幫助。
歡迎留言分享,你最想把什麼畫面帶進 Quest。

Meta Quest 3 Is More Than a VR Headset — It Might Be the 3D Camera You Already Own

 

Meta Quest 3 Is More Than a VR Headset — It Might Be the 3D Camera You Already Own

Over the past few days, I've been taking my Meta Quest 3 outside and recording some test videos.

At first, I simply wanted to evaluate SpatialCam's recording stability, image quality, and real-world usability.

But after shooting a few videos, something unexpected happened:

I started to genuinely enjoy capturing the world this way.


From Dedicated VR180 Cameras to Quest 3

If you've been interested in VR for a while, you may remember the early VR180 era.

Back then, creating 3D or VR180 videos usually required dedicated hardware such as:

  • Lenovo Mirage Camera

  • Vuze XR

  • Insta360 cameras

  • Canon VR systems

Besides the cost of the equipment, there was also a learning curve for editing, converting, and publishing the content.

Many people found the technology interesting, but relatively few actually became creators.

One major reason was simple:

The camera and the viewing device were separate.

You captured content with one device and viewed it with another.


What's Different About Quest 3?

Meta Quest 3 changes that equation.

It is simultaneously:

  • A VR headset

  • A viewing device

  • A spatial computing device

  • A 3D camera (with SpatialCam)

Once you install SpatialCam, you already have a 3D camera with you.

No additional hardware.

No extra camera to carry.

No complicated setup.

Just put on your Quest 3 and start recording.


A Surprising Discovery

Before these tests, I assumed that only spectacular locations were worth filming in 3D.

I was wrong.

The videos I've enjoyed most recently were actually very simple:

  • A coastal bike path

  • A coffee street near the ocean

  • A casual walk

  • Everyday street scenes

  • People passing by

Nothing extraordinary.

Yet when viewed in 3D, these places feel completely different.

You begin to notice:

  • The depth of the road stretching into the distance

  • The spatial layers between trees, buildings, and people

  • The natural separation between foreground and background

  • A stronger sense of presence

It's surprisingly close to being there again.


Why I'm Starting to Love This Way of Recording

Because it feels less like filmmaking and more like preserving experiences.

It's not about creating the perfect shot.

It's not about becoming a professional YouTuber.

It's simply about capturing a moment and saying:

"I was here."

When I put the headset back on and watch the footage later, it often feels like revisiting the place itself.

That's something traditional flat video rarely achieves.


If You Already Own a Quest 3

You don't need to create cinematic masterpieces.

You don't need to be a content creator.

You don't need expensive equipment.

Start with something simple:

  • Walking around your neighborhood

  • Riding a bicycle

  • Visiting a beach

  • Exploring a local market

  • Traveling

  • Visiting a museum

  • Attending an exhibition

  • Spending time in a park

Record a few minutes.

Then watch it again later inside Quest.

You may discover that ordinary moments become surprisingly meaningful in 3D.


We May Be at the Beginning of Something New

When smartphones became mainstream, everyone suddenly had a camera in their pocket.

As a result, millions of people became creators.

Meta Quest 3 may be creating a similar opportunity for immersive media.

A few years ago, recording 3D content required specialized hardware.

Today, many Quest 3 owners already have everything they need.

The barrier to creation has become dramatically lower.

And that could lead to a lot more immersive content being created in the years ahead.


What Happens After Recording?

My current workflow is straightforward:

  1. Record with SpatialCam on Quest 3

  2. Edit and add music

  3. Upload to YouTube

  4. Share and discover immersive content with others

Creating content is important.

But discovering great content matters too.

The more creators share their experiences, the more immersive places, stories, and moments we can explore together.


Final Thoughts

If you own a Meta Quest 3, try taking it outside someday.

Record a walk.

Capture a bike ride.

Film a place you enjoy visiting.

You may find, as I did, that 3D recording isn't just about technology.

It's about preserving experiences in a way that feels remarkably close to being there.

Create with SpatialCam.
Publish on YouTube.
Help others discover immersive experiences.

Meta Quest 3 不只是看片工具,它可能是你每天隨身攜帶的 3D 相機

 

Meta Quest 3 不只是看片工具,它可能是你每天隨身攜帶的 3D 相機

這幾天,我開始戴著 Meta Quest 3 到處拍一些測試影片。

原本只是想驗證 SpatialCam 的錄影穩定度、畫質與實際使用體驗,沒想到拍著拍著,我自己反而慢慢喜歡上了這種記錄方式。


從 VR180 相機到 Quest 3

如果你接觸 VR 很久,應該還記得早年的 VR180 時代。

當時如果想拍攝 3D 或 VR180 影片,通常需要額外購買專用設備。

像是:

  • Lenovo Mirage Camera

  • Vuze XR

  • Insta360 系列

  • Canon VR 系統

除了設備成本之外,還要學習剪輯、轉檔與上傳流程。

很多人覺得有趣,但真正願意投入的人並不多。

而且最大的問題是:

拍攝設備和觀看設備是分離的。

你需要一台相機拍攝,再用另一台設備觀看。


Quest 3 很特別的一點

Meta Quest 3 不一樣。

它同時是:

  • VR 頭戴裝置

  • 觀看設備

  • 空間運算裝置

  • 3D 攝影機

當你安裝 SpatialCam 後,

其實已經擁有一台隨身可用的 3D 相機。

不需要額外購買設備。

不需要背著另一台機器出門。

只要戴上 Quest 3,就能開始拍攝。


這幾天拍攝時,我發現了一件事

以前我總覺得:

要有很特別的景點才值得拍。

但實際開始拍之後發現並不是這樣。

我最近拍攝的內容其實很普通:

  • 海邊自行車道

  • 咖啡街

  • 散步路線

  • 街景

  • 路過的人群

但透過 3D 觀看時,

會多出一種平面影片很難呈現的感覺。

你能感受到:

  • 道路向遠方延伸的距離感

  • 建築物與樹木的空間層次

  • 行人與自行車從身旁經過的立體感

  • 整個環境的臨場感

有點像重新回到當時的現場。


為什麼我開始喜歡這種記錄方式?

因為它不像拍照那麼刻意。

也不像傳統攝影那麼講究構圖。

更像是在記錄:

「我曾經在這裡。」

當我回頭戴上 Quest 觀看時,

會有種重新回到現場的感覺。

那種感受和看平面影片真的不太一樣。


如果你已經有 Quest 3

我想說的是:

你不一定要拍什麼驚天動地的作品。

不用是導演。

不用是 YouTuber。

不用是專業攝影師。

可以先從最簡單的開始:

  • 住家附近散步

  • 海邊走走

  • 騎腳踏車

  • 逛夜市

  • 旅行途中

  • 看展覽

  • 逛博物館

  • 公園散心

拍下來看看。

然後過幾天再戴上 Quest 回頭觀看。

你可能會發現,

有些原本以為很普通的片段,

在 3D 裡其實很有味道。


我們可能正站在一個新的起點

早年智慧型手機普及後,

人人都有相機,

於是產生了大量的照片與影片創作者。

現在的 Meta Quest 3,

某種程度上也正在發生類似的事情。

以前拍攝 3D 內容需要專用設備。

現在只需要一台 Quest 3。

創作門檻大幅降低。

或許未來幾年,

我們會看到越來越多人開始記錄自己的 3D 世界。


拍完之後呢?

我目前的流程很簡單:

  1. 使用 SpatialCam 拍攝 3D 影片

  2. 剪輯與配樂

  3. 上傳到 YouTube

  4. 分享給其他人觀看

我也正在思考如何讓更多優質的 3D 與 VR180 內容更容易被發現。

因為創作固然重要,

但發現好內容,同樣重要。


如果你已經擁有 Meta Quest 3,

不妨找一天出門散步時試著拍一段。

也許你會和我一樣,

慢慢喜歡上這種記錄世界的方式。


用 SpatialCam 創作,用 YouTube 發佈,讓更多人看見沉浸式的世界。

Meta Quest 3 + SpatialCam 單車移動拍攝測試

 

Meta Quest 3 + SpatialCam 單車移動拍攝測試

這次我想測試一個很實際的問題:

如果把 Meta Quest 3 戴著騎腳踏車,並使用 SpatialCam 連續錄製 3D 影片,是否能穩定運作?

測試地點選在新北市海邊自行車道與咖啡街一帶。這類場景我認為非常適合使用 3D 拍攝:

  • 有明顯景深

  • 有海岸與道路延伸感

  • 有旅遊散步的氛圍

  • 行人、自行車與街景能呈現自然的立體感

錄影穩定度

本次錄影持續超過 5 分鐘,移動距離接近 1 公里。

SpatialCam 全程正常錄製,沒有發生中斷或錄影失敗的情況。

錄影開始時,可以看到部分 App 與 Meta 系統介面,但在開始移動後很快就離開畫面,因此不影響最終的 3D 內容。

觀察到的問題

影片中有少數片段出現輕微卡頓。

目前尚無法確定原因是否與以下因素有關:

  • Quest 3 剩餘儲存空間不足

  • 背景執行過多 App

  • 系統資源被其他程序占用

因此建議正式拍攝前:

  • 盡量保留充足儲存空間

  • 關閉不必要的背景 App

  • 重新啟動 Quest 3 後再開始錄影

穿透畫面表現

錄影前約 4 分鐘期間,Meta Quest 3 的穿透畫面相當流暢,對騎乘沒有明顯影響。

但在後半段測試中,穿透畫面偶爾會出現短暫停格。

需要特別說明的是:

這種停格發生在使用者觀看穿透畫面的過程中,而不是錄製出的影片內容。

因此:

  • 對錄影品質影響不大

  • 但可能影響騎乘或步行時的安全性與舒適度

如果是:

  • 手持拍攝

  • 固定腳架拍攝

則幾乎不受影響。

後製流程

本次影片流程如下:

  1. 使用 SpatialCam 於 Meta Quest 3 錄製 SBS 3D 影片

  2. 傳送至手機

  3. 使用 VLLO 剪輯

  4. 加入配樂與轉場效果

  5. 以 8:3(雙 4:3)比例輸出

  6. 輸出解析度 2560×960

  7. 傳回 Meta Quest 3

  8. 使用 SpatialCam 轉換為 YouTube 3D 相容格式

  9. 傳回電腦

  10. 使用 Chrome 上傳至 YouTube

結論

這次測試證明:

Meta Quest 3 搭配 SpatialCam 已經能夠穩定完成長時間移動式 3D 錄影。

雖然在穿透畫面與系統效能方面仍有優化空間,但對於旅遊記錄、步道散步、自行車路線與日常生活場景而言,已經具備相當實用的拍攝能力。

最重要的是,任何擁有 Meta Quest 3 的使用者,不需要額外購買昂貴的 VR180 相機,就能開始拍攝並分享自己的 3D 內容。

如果你也開始拍攝 3D 或 VR180 內容,


除了上傳到 YouTube 之外,


也歡迎分享到 Tendy,讓更多 Meta Quest 與沉浸式內容愛好者發現你的作品。
