Red Pin — two phones, one world
Goal: pair two iPhones so Lil Stitcher can weave a VR180 room. The phones start the show. Leave Lil Stitcher signed in. Do not click Start Dual iPhone or Rescan iPhones. The desk has no Local / Away switch.
1. Pair the phones
- Open Lil Eye on both iPhones, same account family, close enough to see each other.
- Let them find each other. One becomes the master, the other the slave. Chrome turns red.
- Use the alignment guide so the two cameras sit a small human distance apart — that gap is the stereo, the depth in the room.
Tip: Each eye is H.265. High is about 1920×1920 per eye. The lighter tier is about 960×960. Either way, the published world is the same 3840×1920 plate. 2K does not shrink the room.
2. Same Wi‑Fi as the desk (Local)
The phones find Lil Stitcher by Bonjour on port 7770. The live eyes are separate: WHIP into that PC on port 9885, left and right.
Desk steps: Local dual.
3. Phones somewhere else (Away)
The phones send to the cloud relay. Lil Stitcher at home subscribes and weaves the same plate.
Desk steps: Away dual.
4. Check the weave
When both eyes connect, Stitcher locks Lil Eye geometry for you: 180°, Shift 0, a filled side-by-side picture. If you see two circles on black, read what the picture should look like.
