Workspace: smooth light-colored walls without moiré fringes or moving objects (curtains, doors, fans)

The camming room should be spacious. Light needs space and volume, you also need to take into account the need for close-ups and long shots. Pay attention to the following videos in Tips and tricks section to attain better results:

Recommended system requirements for 1 VR and 2-3 2D streams for NANO1:

Video card: Nvidia GTX 950+/1050+. Older cards are not supported.

Processor: Intel i5-9600T/ i7-6700 or AMD Ryzen 5 2400

Cooling: Good solution with minimal noise

Please note: DreamSender VR streaming software does not support the Mac OS.

Minimum connection speed: 70 Mbps for upload. You can check your connection here.

The optimal lighting setup consists of 3 to 4 sources. There should be an overhead (ceiling), diffused light, and at least two light sources placed on the sides (softboxes are a great option).

If you prefer to use table lamps or floor lamps instead of professional lighting, keep in mind that the side light sources should be located at eye level of the model or higher.  If they only highlight the model from below, it will cast unpleasant-looking shadows on their face.

These parameters will be indicated on the package.

Choose the most suitable type of lighting for you. Warm light can work well for one person, but cold light can work better for someone else. 

When you pick the right shade, make sure that all light sources you purchase have the same Kelvin value. For example, all lamps are 4200K. Otherwise, your broadcast will be riddled with unpleasant light spots and ripples.

Wrong positioning can cause your footage to become overexposed which will be annoying for the user and will cause them to leave the room. 

Below are two light schemes, with three and four sources:

Dreamcam. How to connect. Register

Connect your camera to your PC and install the VR software

USB Type-c used to connect the camera to a PC

Take your camera out, set it up on a tripod or something else, and plug in the power. 

Please note: a tripod is not included with the camera.

In order to connect the camera to the computer, take out the USB-C from the box and connect it to the corresponding port of the computer and the camera. Watch the video "Connect the camera to the computer and install the VR software ".

1. Hold the camera POWER ON button for 1 second. The power indicator will flash blue.

2. The camera is connected and ready for use. Make sure the blue power indicator is not blinking.

It is very important to install the VR camera so that it stays in place but at the same time you’re able to adjust the angle.

You may need to move the camera to a different location in the room or change the viewing angle during the broadcast, so we recommend choosing a mount with 2-axis adjustment.

When setting it up on a table, make sure the camera doesn’t shake during typing. This creates an earthquake effect for the user.

Connect the camera to your computer and install the VR software

We recommend that the distance between you and the camera is about 1 meter, whilst the size of the room should be at least 15m².

Recommended camera positioning from the ground is at eye level of the model.

VR user sees more than 2D, so take this into account when preparing the room for broadcast.

Remove all vertical and moving objects (microphone, doors and windows, curtains, etc. should not be in the frame).

There should be enough light sources, and they should remain outside the field of view.

Adjust the volume of the speakers, so that you can hear the user.

Pay attention to the music: in order for you to be heard, it should not be too loud.

Position the lamps so that they are outside of the field of view of the camera. Wrong positioning can cause your footage to become overexposed which will be annoying for the user and will cause them to leave the room.

Recommended sequence of image adjustment procedures in DreamSender:

1. White Balance is responsible for the yellow and blue tint of the image. In order to set the parameters manually, disable auto balance by unchecking the Auto checkbox. Stick closer to natural skin tones.

2. Red / Green / Blue  is responsible for manual adjustment of red/green and blue colors separately. We recommend using it only after choosing the desired White Balance settings.

3. Exposure changes the brightness of the image without degrading the image quality at the maximum value. In order to set the parameters manually, disable automatic adjustment by unchecking the Auto checkbox.

4. Gain changes the brightness of the image. Do not increase the Gain parameter if Exposure is not already set to its maximum value, as this will affect the quality of the image.

When adjusting the brightness of the image through Exposure / Gain, the image on the preview should be clearly visible. Add additional light sources if necessary.

Do not let the image overexpose. If necessary, you can lower the Gain, and then interact with the Exposure settings.

5. Saturation can make the picture more vivid and saturated. We do not recommend using the -100 to -1 range.

6. Contrast increases the contrast of the picture. We recommend using a range from 0 to 20.

7. Brightness makes the image lighter or darker but greatly reduces the amount of detail. We recommend using Exposure and Gain for the most part. It will have the same effect. The safe range for Brightness is -10 to 10.

How do I go online?

The opportunities offered by VR camming are much greater than when broadcasting in 2D: the visitor has the impression that you are in the same room! It helps a lot to imagine that your camera is a person. Approach the camera from behind and give your member a sensuous facial massage or go to your knees in front of the camera so that the member can feel your touch! When you look into the camera, the user gets the impression that you are maintaining eye contact. Use these advantages of the VR streaming to form a stronger bond with a user.

The field of view in VR is much wider, which means that more things are visible. The user can look up or down, right or left, so keep it in mind when preparing the room for the broadcast. We have prepared several videos to highlight the differences and point out important details.

Check out the videos "How do the members see you" and "Best camera angles in VR": we have selected several angles that are only possible in VR and are sure to make your broadcasts special. Don’t be afraid to experiment and remember that the experience that user gets in VR is leagues above other types of camming experiences.

We recommend that you watch the video "Don’ts" to a void errors. For instance, under any circumstances, a VR camera cannot be removed from its tripod. The camera angle also needs to be adjusted in a very careful fashion so as not to make the user uncomfortable. 

You сan also notify your regulars that you are now streaming in VR as well. Just make your own banners and share them on social media! 

See the details on the "Guides" page in the "Create your own banner" section!

How the members see you

List of common mistakes when broadcasting in VR:

 VR user sees more than in 2D, so take this into account when preparing the room for broadcast. Any mess in your camming space is unacceptable.

There should be no large black objects in the frame (for example, a TV).

There should be no moving objects in the frame. For example, fluttering curtains or dreamcatchers.

There should be no vertical objects positioned close to the camera. For example, it is better to move the microphone outside the field of view.

You need to move the camera very slowly, otherwise, the user will get uncomfortable due to motion sickness.

The camera itself must be positioned at eye level. If it is too low, the user will feel like a dwarf, and if it is set up high – like a giant.

Remember that the visitor feels as if they are in the same room with you - pay as much attention to them as possible and look into their eyes often!

 We also recommend watching the videos “How do the members see you?” and “Best camera angles   in VR”. 

Don’ts of camming

Check out the video "Best camera angles in VR ": we have selected several angles that are only possible in VR and are sure to make your broadcasts special. Don’t be afraid to experiment and remember that the experience that user gets in VR is LEAGUES above other types of camming experiences.

We recommend that you watch the video "Don’ts of camming" to avoid mistakes. For instance, under any circumstances, a VR camera cannot be removed from its tripod. The camera angle also needs to be adjusted in a very careful fashion so as not to make the user uncomfortable.
