Quest3 Timestamped Stereo Casting

December 24, 2024

Because the official tool provided by Meta does not support stereo casting on some devices (as of January 22, 2025, my MacBook supports stereo, but my Windows PC does not) and does not expose device timestamps for synchronization with in-application data such as camera position and rotation, I decided to create a solution.

I forked the original Scrcpy project—an open-source tool for mirroring and controlling Android devices—and modified it to enable capturing synchronized stereo video feeds from the Quest 3. This version includes precise device timestamps, allowing video frames to be correlated with other sensor data, such as head position and rotation.

This functionality is particularly useful for computer vision research and 3D reconstruction experiments, providing an affordable alternative to expensive AR/XR devices.
