Oculus Detection?

Is there a way in the Unity SDK to detect if there is an oculus attached?
I want to make it optional for use of the oculus, and I haven't seen a way to detect if it is connected so far.
Thanks :D

    I just use something like this:-

    if(OVRDevice.SensorCount > 0) {
    	riftFound = true;	
    }

    You can use the OVRMessenger, like it is done in the OVRMainMenu:
    OVRMessenger.AddListener<Device, bool>("Sensor_Attached", UpdateDeviceDetectionMsgCallback);


    So you add a callback function that will get called when a device is either attached or detached.

    I asked the same question a while ago Krispers answer is what I came up with.

    I check this on startup to auto switch the games mode but you might want to provided a confirmation option which I eventually plan to do.

    Sorry, it was from your original post that I copied the code. Couldn't remember where it came from :oops:
