Google Has Open-Sourced Tilt Brush

You can now continue developing the VR tool with your own team.

Google has announced they decided to open-source Tilt Brush, and the code for the virtual reality 3D painting tool is now available under an Apache 2.0 license.

Please note that the project is will be actively developed, no pull requests will be accepted via GitHub. Compiled commercial builds will always remain available in digital stores, according to Google.

The toolkit was originally released in 2016 as a 3D painting application compatible with VR headsets to paint in virtual 3D spaces.

The team has also replaced proprietary technologies for bloom, anti-aliasing, and chromatic aberration with open-source equivalents. Tilt Brush will remain a Google trademark, but other teams can now develop the software under new names.
