I am using this demo:
https://threejs.org/examples/?q=video#webgl_video_panorama_equirectangular
with the following code:
let camera, scene, renderer;
let isUserInteracting = false,
lon = 0, lat = 0,
phi = 0, theta = 0,
onPointerDownPointerX = 0,
onPointerDownPointerY = 0,
onPointerDownLon = 0,
onPointerDownLat = 0;
const distance = 50;
init();
animate();
function init() {
const container = document.getElementById( 'container' );
camera = new THREE.PerspectiveCamera( 75, window.innerWidth / window.innerHeight, 1, 1100 );
scene = new THREE.Scene();
const geometry = new THREE.SphereGeometry( 500, 60, 40 );
// invert the geometry on the x-axis so that all of the faces point inward
geometry.scale( - 1, 1, 1 );
const video = document.getElementById( 'video' );
video.play();
const texture = new THREE.VideoTexture( video );
const material = new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial( { map: texture } );
const mesh = new THREE.Mesh( geometry, material );
scene.add( mesh );
renderer = new THREE.WebGLRenderer();
renderer.setPixelRatio( window.devicePixelRatio );
renderer.setSize( window.innerWidth, window.innerHeight );
container.appendChild( renderer.domElement );
document.addEventListener( 'pointerdown', onPointerDown );
document.addEventListener( 'pointermove', onPointerMove );
document.addEventListener( 'pointerup', onPointerUp );
//
window.addEventListener( 'resize', onWindowResize );
}
function onWindowResize() {
camera.aspect = window.innerWidth / window.innerHeight;
camera.updateProjectionMatrix();
renderer.setSize( window.innerWidth, window.innerHeight );
}
function onPointerDown( event ) {
isUserInteracting = true;
onPointerDownPointerX = event.clientX;
onPointerDownPointerY = event.clientY;
onPointerDownLon = lon;
onPointerDownLat = lat;
}
function onPointerMove( event ) {
if ( isUserInteracting === true ) {
lon = ( onPointerDownPointerX - event.clientX ) * 0.1 + onPointerDownLon;
lat = ( onPointerDownPointerY - event.clientY ) * 0.1 + onPointerDownLat;
}
}
function onPointerUp() {
isUserInteracting = false;
}
function animate() {
requestAnimationFrame( animate );
update();
}
function update() {
lat = Math.max( - 85, Math.min( 85, lat ) );
phi = THREE.MathUtils.degToRad( 90 - lat );
theta = THREE.MathUtils.degToRad( lon );
camera.position.x = distance * Math.sin( phi ) * Math.cos( theta );
camera.position.y = distance * Math.cos( phi );
camera.position.z = distance * Math.sin( phi ) * Math.sin( theta );
camera.lookAt( 0, 0, 0 );

}
Is there an api for the THREE.PerspectiveCamera so you can manually call zoom in / out, move left / right inside the scene ..etc?
Is this possible?
There is indeed an API for the Three.PerspectiveCamera, including a method to call to zoom in/out the camera.
https://threejs.org/docs/#api/en/cameras/PerspectiveCamera.zoom
If you wish to move the camera around the scene, you can update the position of the camera through updating its position attribute. This can be done by either updating each of its three coordinates individually, or using the 'set' method to pass in a Vector3 for its position. Below is the documentation to Object3D, which camera inherits from.
https://threejs.org/docs/#api/en/core/Object3D.position
Be wary though that script is already updating its position during its 'update' function, so you will need to possibly change those lines directly, depending on what you want to do.
Hopefully this helps!
I had difficulty exporting more than one texture using Blender's Three.js add-on, so had planned to work around it be separating the parts into separate meshes, but then came across the unexpected problem of the code not working when I created the meshes outside of the load() function. I've supplied an example below using a single model with a single mesh. The following works fine:

And here is an attached texture which could be used.
It might just be a trivial problem for some of the posters on here, and if so, thanks in advance for just letting me know what it is. If not, then the answer could be useful to a lot more people, and thanks for any help you can give on it.
You cant do this, asynchronously:
var obj_geometry; // === undefined
var myMesh = new THREE.Mesh( obj_geometry ); //because undefined, same as calling new THREE.Mesh();
obj_geometry = geometry;//does nothing, mesh has no idea about this happening
obj_material = material;
When you construct a mesh, you've given it undefined for geometry, so i think it just calls new Geometry() inside the constructor. This mesh has been created with a unique isntance of empty Geometry and has nothing to do with your obj_geometry.
The solution here is to do:
var obj_geometry = new THREE.Geometry();
var myMesh = new THREE.Mesh( obj_geometry ); //holds a reference to an empty "proxy"
then onLoad
loader.load( 'url' , function( geom ) {
obj_geometry.merge(geom); //"FILL PREVIOUSLY CREATED GEOMETRY WITH DATA"
obj_geometry.vertsNeedUpdate = true; // there's a few flags like this you need to turn on
}
OR
var myMesh = new THREE.Mesh();
loader.load( 'url', function( geom ) {
myMesh.geometry = geom; //"PUT THE JUST CREATED GEOMETRY IN THE RIGHT PLACE"
//myOtherMesh.geometry = geom; //if you have more places where this needs to end up
//myThirdMesh.geometry = geom; //gets very cumbersome
}
Both are pretty cumbersome and not very intuitive :( i really dislike this part of three.js.
Thanks to help from pailhead, pointing out the asynchronous issue I made the following modification to the code and found that it worked. Surprisingly the count that I added doesn't seem to raise above 0, but I am assuming that it was because it was quite a close run thing.

Thanks for the help with this, hopefully it helps others too. If there are any problems with this resolution that anybody notices, please let me know. Thanks.
I'm starting learning three.js. I studied the Getting started section on the website and had a look to some examples, but I can't figure out many things.
What I'd like to do is to create a cube (a box) and put the camera in the middle of it, so that I would see the inner side of each face. Is this actually possible?
Looking at the documentation, various examples and on stackoverflow, right now I'm at this point:
var camera, scene, renderer;
var isUserInteracting = false,
onMouseDownMouseX = 0, onMouseDownMouseY = 0,
lon = 0, onMouseDownLon = 0,
lat = 0, onMouseDownLat = 0,
phi = 0, theta = 0;
init();
animate();
function init() {
var container, mesh;
container = document.getElementById( 'container' );
camera = new THREE.PerspectiveCamera( 75, window.innerWidth / window.innerHeight, 1, 1100 );
camera.target = new THREE.Vector3(1, 1, 1);
scene = new THREE.Scene();
var geometry = new THREE.BoxGeometry(7, 7, 7);
geometry.applyMatrix(new THREE.Matrix4().makeScale(-1, 1, 1));
var material = [
new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial( { color: 0x8bf2a7 } ),
new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial( { color: 0x1ad9a5 } ),
new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial( { color: 0xdadcad } ),
new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial( { color: 0xb1b1b1 } ),
new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial( { color: 0x3a3a3a } ), // front
new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial( { color: 0xf5f5f5 } )
];
mesh = new THREE.Mesh( geometry, new THREE.MeshFaceMaterial(material) );
scene.add( mesh );
renderer = new THREE.WebGLRenderer();
renderer.setPixelRatio( window.devicePixelRatio );
renderer.setSize( window.innerWidth, window.innerHeight );
container.appendChild( renderer.domElement );
document.addEventListener( 'mousedown', onDocumentMouseDown, false );
document.addEventListener( 'mousemove', onDocumentMouseMove, false );
document.addEventListener( 'mouseup', onDocumentMouseUp, false );
document.addEventListener( 'dragover', function ( event ) {

material.map.image.src = event.target.result;
material.map.needsUpdate = true;
}, false );
reader.readAsDataURL( event.dataTransfer.files[ 0 ] );
document.body.style.opacity = 1;
}, false );
//

}
function onWindowResize() {
camera.aspect = window.innerWidth / window.innerHeight;
camera.updateProjectionMatrix();
renderer.setSize( window.innerWidth, window.innerHeight );
}
function onDocumentMouseDown( event ) {
event.preventDefault();
isUserInteracting = true;
onPointerDownPointerX = event.clientX;
onPointerDownPointerY = event.clientY;
onPointerDownLon = lon;
onPointerDownLat = lat;
}
function onDocumentMouseMove( event ) {
if ( isUserInteracting === true ) {
lon = ( onPointerDownPointerX - event.clientX ) * 0.1 + onPointerDownLon;
lat = ( event.clientY - onPointerDownPointerY ) * 0.1 + onPointerDownLat;
}
}
function onDocumentMouseUp( event ) {
isUserInteracting = false;
}
function onDocumentMouseWheel( event ) {
// WebKit
if ( event.wheelDeltaY ) {
camera.fov -= event.wheelDeltaY * 0.05;
// Opera / Explorer 9
} else if ( event.wheelDelta ) {
camera.fov -= event.wheelDelta * 0.05;
// Firefox
} else if ( event.detail ) {
camera.fov += event.detail * 1.0;
}
camera.updateProjectionMatrix();
}
function animate() {
requestAnimationFrame( animate );
update();
}
function update() {
if ( isUserInteracting === false ) {
// lon += 0.1;
}
lat = Math.max( - 85, Math.min( 85, lat ) );
phi = THREE.Math.degToRad( 90 - lat );
theta = THREE.Math.degToRad( lon );
camera.target.x = 500 * Math.sin( phi ) * Math.cos( theta );
camera.target.y = 500 * Math.cos( phi );
camera.target.z = 500 * Math.sin( phi ) * Math.sin( theta );
camera.lookAt( camera.target );
camera.position.z = 3;
/*
// distortion
camera.position.copy( camera.target ).negate();
*/
renderer.render( scene, camera );
}
I can actually see the cube from the inside, but it's not exactly what I want. I'm trying to put the camera in the exact center of the room and I would it to rotate on itself, but I don't exactly how to precisely move it.
If you look at this fiddle the only difference is the material.
Comment and uncomment the following line to see the effect.
THREE.ImageUtils.crossOrigin = '';
Also you can read more at this issue
I'm looking at two examples, one is canvas interactive objects and the other is mouse tooltip. I tried combining the two to generate text labels on each individual cube and here's what I have so far.
However, the text moves with the rotating cubes and the text appears backwards or sideways at times.
How can I make the text fixed in a sprite like in the mouse tooltip (http://stemkoski.github.io/Three.js/Mouse-Tooltip.html) example? I tried to incorporate the sprite but I kept getting errors. I'm not sure how to do it. Could you explain how I can go by it?
Thanks.

Billboarding is easy. All you have to do, in your case, is add this inside your render loop:
if ( currentLabel ) currentLabel.lookAt( camera.position );
I downloaded threejs and now try to create a 3D environment where you can move freely in some kind of "ego perspective". I used the pointlock-control example as submission and now I'm on to add my own stuff starting with a car created in Blender and exported as JSON but every time I try to load it I get just a white screen. I hope you guys can help me.

var intersections = ray.intersectObjects( objects ); but you aren't adding your mesh to objects.
Your camera does not have position nor target.
Background color of body and text "color" in instructions is same #ffffff in style.
Please change one of them, and then try :)
It may be giving out put but you may not see it,
Update:
You are adding scene here scene.add(mesh2); I think we should follow the working code(below) and redraw the scene(using loop or timer, every "0.05 second"), don't add new scene, use simple example like round to move then proceed with complex car, that may confuse sometimes..
Working Code:
loader = new THREE.JSONLoader();
loadModel = function (geometry) {
mesh2 = new THREE.Mesh(geometry, new THREE.MeshBasicMaterial({
envMap : THREE.ImageUtils.loadTexture('textures/metal.refl.jpg', new THREE.SphericalReflectionMapping()),
overdraw : true,
shading : THREE.SmoothShading
}));
mesh2.scale.set(1, 1, 1);
mesh2.position.set(0, 0, 0);
//mesh.rotation.set(Math.PI/2, Mat.PI/2, Math.PI/2);
//mesh.matrix.setRotationFromEuler(mesh.rotation);
scene.add( mesh2 );
};
