Janus VR本名Firebox,现在JamesMcCrae改名为现在这个名字。
A project for learning programming for the Oculus Rift - a 3D VR internet browser which I originally called FireBox (webpages are represented as boxy rooms - get it?). I recently renamed the project to "Janus VR", after the god Janus from Roman myth. Here is a passage which describes Janus from the novel "The Light Between Oceans" by M. L. Stedman:
"You know Janus is where the word January comes from? It's named after the same god as this island. He's got two faces, back to back. Pretty ugly fellow."
"What's he god of?"
"Doorways. Always looking both ways, torn between two ways of seeing things. January looks forward to the new year and back to the old year. He sees past and future. And the island looks in the direction of two different oceans, down to the South Pole and up to the Equator."
