This is an experimental technology
Because this technology's specification has not stabilized, check the compatibility table for usage in various browsers. Also note that the syntax and behavior of an experimental technology is subject to change in future versions of browsers as the specification changes.
The upDegrees
read-only property of the VRFieldOfViewReadOnly
interface returns the number of degrees upwards that the field of view extends in.
Syntax
var myUpDegrees = VRFieldOfViewReadOnly.upDegrees;
Value
A double.
Examples
You wouldn't access this property directly from VRFieldOfViewReadOnly
; to access this property from VRFieldOfView
, you could do something like this:
var lEye = myHMDVRDevice.getEyeParameters('left'); lEye.recommendedFieldOfView.upDegrees // returns something like 53.09438550469889
For some useful related examples, see the VRFieldOfView

about:config
and enable thedom.vr*
prefs. A better option however is to install the WebVR Enabler Add-on, which does this for you and sets up other necessary parts of the environment. - [3] The
dom.vr*
prefs are enabled by default at this point, in Nightly/Aurora editions.
