Hi guys,I'd like to use a real compass: to get an absolute NSEW heading of the Oculus instead of an orientation relative to the initial state.I'm trying to to this using the OVRDevice.GetMagnetometer function, do you suggest another way?Also, is it s...
Hi,I wonder if it is possible to use the C API (from SDK 0.3.2) in a full C code and compile it with a C compiler?When I try to do it the compiler says it does not know C++ things like namespace and so on. Is there a compiling option suitable for thi...
Hello everyone,I guess my question would be, how can I find out what my polygon budget is with a geforce gtx 770 at 60 fps or 75 fps considering that the dk2 renders an image twice and has a refresh rate of up to 75hz? Greetings,Johnny
Hi,I'm looking for a solution to do proper audio rendering, i.e. something that takes into account the 3d environment of the audio source and audio receiver (mostly walls (including their thickness and perhaps material). I found some pages on RESound...
Hey all,It has been a while since I posted any updates to my project so here you go.Let me know what you think!Matt
I think sense of touch can really help with immersion. I have had this idea of either a glove or an aperture to attach to the flat side of your hand opposite the thumb (where you would karate chop) that would have a small air compressor hooked up to ...
Hi, I'm trying to port this glfw example (https://developer.oculusvr.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=8680) into glut.I have more or less the same code. I'm only working on Linux for now.The window opens and I can see the scene (with the screen being ...
I was wondering if there are any plans on having public web api's for oculus share? I would like to add the ability to browse available games/demos, download & install them, etc. within Virtual Desktop (viewtopic.php?f=29&t=8182)

What's the best way for a Windows user like me to test cross-platform applications for the Oculus Rift? Without buying a new computer, hard-disk, or OS, I mean.I assume I can download some sort of Linux and run it from a DVD, USB, or virtualized...Bu...
Oculus, can you post the official pixel position on the screen of the center of the lenses? For DK1 and DK2...What about diopters for the DK2 lenses?What about DPI for the screens both DK1 and DK2!What is the plastics IPD or the distance between the ...
I've got an application that's required to use client distortion rendering and I'm trying to implement support for the Latency Tester, but it seems that the 0.3.2 SDK is missing some critical pieces. Specifically, ovrHmd_ProcessLatencyTest looks like...
I've just ordered my SDK2 and wan't to get something working prior to it's arrival.I like to develop in Java and have a strong preference for a minimum of wrapper libraries/frameworks, and was wondering what is best way to go about getting a 3D-cube ...
Hello, all!I just recently returned from a 10-month-long period of time when I did not have access to my Rift. Upon returning, I tried a few demos, but wasn't very impressed (I had trouble getting immersed... I believe it's due to the low resolution ...
I've been working on a rift demo using an amazing library by wwwtyro, node-ovrsdk, and my mind is somewhat blown at the opportunities that this library opens up.This library allows you to create Rift games with javascript, and its server implementati...
Hello,So I have this weird issue with rendering to OpenGL and the Oculus Rift's SDK.I can render fine without the Rift but with the Rift I get a blank black screen.Now before, without materials, I load everything in just fine.It's when I started load...
Most VR Treadmills I've seen so far are built around the idea of including a mobile 360° rotating part (usually a ring) that let's you face and walk in the real life direction you want.But what if instead of letting your real life body turn to face t...
I just read a topic of cubytes (giving him credits for that) and it gave me a new game Idea.A VR new "combat style" or RPG stylea naruto like game, where you have to learn and reproduce a "signs" serie with hands to create magical techniques.(wind, f...
I haven't seen any thing on this in the past, seems to not hardware at this point but good pedigree in experience in this field.http://www.mdh.se/det-virtuella-tangentbordet-kan-snart-bli-verklighet-1.58044?l=en_UK weird video distortion here but ..h...
Many of you probably know about EEG headsets.EEG headsets basically translate brainwaves, EEGs, into commands. Using EEG headsets, you can use your computer in anyway you want!So I was looking at the Emotiv EPOC one day and I thought about how great ...
Walk, run, jump.. pick things up and operate things with your hands.. no keyboards, no mouses, no gamepadsor any hand held controllers.. thats how VR should be (you agree ?) but of course there is bit of a problem withhaptic feedback...I could imagin...
DIY gloves can be made super cheap... I guess it's time to get this mess back together!Getting back into glove making now... this was 2 years ago based off of the old VPL fiber optic design.I'm new here but will be updating progress on this glove. On...
iOS 8 will support a very close to the metal GPU code through Unity and Epic. Epic claims they are able to to have 4500 mesh animations onscreen at the same time in iOS 8. In addition the game engine leverages direct access to the A7 CPU which is sai...
I was initially very pleased with using an ASUS WAVI wireless setup with the Rift - low (enough) latency, good range, and the whole package is easily battery-powered. You have to run it at 720p or 1080p, as the WAVI does not handle 1280x800 properly,...
Integrating the Oculus Rift into the construction industry
Hi everyone!I've a weird issue from some days.To be honest i'm not sure if i've this issue after i've update to the latest SDK or i've it some days before.. but i was thinking that most probably i've this problem before the last SDK.However,when the ...
Short answer - track the movie and re-render it into a 360 panoramic format. Consider this movie (in cross-eyed side by side equirectangular format).https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3JXi175-W9M It is 180 by 180 degrees equirectangular format and it is...
Hi,Hope this will save you some headaches (and not cause any more).Only win32, but with GLFW it shouldn't be too hard to port once the OculusSDK becomes cross-platform.EDITThis is a one-page sample, 99% plain C. It is based on the OculusSDK 0.3.1 Pre...
I do not have an Oculus Rift yet but in theory I feel like this should work out. Has anyone attempted to used GoPro's cineform studio to import the footage from a GoPro dual hero system to sync both files and export both clips then import into Adobe ...
