Positional tracking - height treated differently?
Hi to all,
Trying to understand readings from the positional cam in Unity, not sure I've fully got the picture yet:
- I'm inspecting OVRCameraController, placed at world origin. Taking readings from one of the 2 child cameras whilst moving the rift around, facing the positional cam mounted on my monitor.
- x and z positions make sense and seem both accurate and responsive.
- y seems to map to [ player eye height - 1 + measured delta ], for example if OVRDevice.PlayerEyeHeight is 1.67, y when the rift and the positional camera are leveled will be [ 1.67 -1 + 0 ] = 0.67.
- OVRDevice.ResetOrientation resets x and z to 0, but y to the above value.
Am I misunderstanding something, or is it assumed that the OVRCameraController will have a y position of 1 ?
If this is the case, is it meant to facilitate sitting / standing calculations? Sitting : OVRCameraController at 0.5, standing at 1?
Many thanks in advance for your help,
Gregzo
