WallTracerWhat WallTracer is
WallTracer is a virtual projector for tracing pictures onto real walls. Prepare a picture (your own, a stencil from the library, or lettering), open it in a Meta Quest headset with passthrough, pin it to the wall at its real size and lock it.
Put the controllers down and trace it with a pencil. One button, or a pinch of your free hand, hides the picture so you can check your lines. Projects can live in the browser or in an account.
Who it's for: DIY muralists, parents painting a kid's room, sign painters and anyone hanging a gallery wall

Questions
Which headset do I need?
A Meta Quest with passthrough, using its web browser. No app store install.
Why not use a projector?
There is no projector to set up or shadows from your own body, and the picture stays locked to the wall at its real size.
Can I use my own picture?
Yes: your own picture, a stencil from the library, or lettering from the lettering maker.
