The app lets one use their smartphone as a digital telescope, by  mounting it into a standard VR viewer and connecting an external keyboard, remote or gamepad. This allows people with low-vision to attend lectures, conferences and meetings.\n\nKey Features:-\n1. Immersive VR Mode: The camera feed is shown in a stereoscopic side-by-side view. The application defaults to a \"Hide Everything\" UI state, with no on-screen buttons and menus, to provide a clean, viewfinder for VR headsets.\n2. Telephoto Support: Supports switching to the telephoto lens (if present) on most newer Android devices. \n3. Digital Zoom Boost: Increase maximum zoom-levels for each camera-lens.\n4. External Hardware Control: Fully mapped to work with wired or wireless keyboards and gamepads, allowing you to control the zoom-levels and color-filters while it is strapped to your head.\n5. Experimental: Unlocking Telephoto Access: Supports manually adding camera Lens ID to bypass OEM restrictions hiding these lenses (like telephoto and periscope cameras) from third-party apps.\n\nOpen TeleScope VR is based on Open Camera (v1.56.2) code base and is under GPLv3 license.\n","categories":["Camera","Science & Education"]}
