Getting IR Camera Transform

Hey guys,

Just letting you know that we are working on improving the unity integration to support this. You shouldn't have to workaround this for too much longer.

Thanks!

Hey, thanks a lot for this!

Is there an easy way to make this take player eye height into account? The cone always seems to point at the OVRCameraController, but if I have Use Player Eye Height enabled the actual eye cameras move somewhere else entirely.

Is there an updated version of this method? As far as i can see the method proposed by 9of9 uses deprecated code references.

As i understand it on the newest version of the SDK (0.4.4) the OVRVisionGuide class should be able to do something similar, but i can't seem to get it to function for some reason.

Since 0.4.3, we've exposed OVRManager.tracker.GetPose(). It returns the current IR camera pose in OVRCameraRig's local space.

I updated the code for my project.

The camera refines it's position continuously after hmd reset and is often inaccurate right after, so I added a timed update polling as well.
it's not pretty code, and apparently gist somehow messed up indentations, but it's a working starting point if you want it.

Hey thanks for this, it is sort of working on the bottom of the cone. how can I get the whole frame of the cone to show up like in the demo scene?

How can I make the view Cone Mesh a viewable wireframe mesh in the game?

How would this work with the latest unity integration?

You can do this, but you'll have to do some calculation yourself.

Basically, you call OVRManager.tracker.frustum and use nearZ, farZ, and fov. Then you have to use GetPose along with the frustum shape parameters to set up points in 3d space and then draw lines between them using LineRenderer.

I've put in a feature request to make this a little easier in the API.

And with Unity Beta 5.1 where there is no OVR reference files anymore?
