This can be used to much more deeply engage the user with their reality.
In the project you'll find a script at Assets/SteamVR/InteractionSystem/Samples/Scripts called Planting. If you're not seeing any changes when you press buttons make sure that your controllers are being recognized by SteamVR and that you don't have any errors in the console.SteamVR Input abstracts away the device specific parts of your code so you can focus on the intent of the user - their actions. A range from 0 to 1 representing the size of the gap between fingers. This path can be configured through the settings button at the top of this window.Alright, lets see these actions in... action! We'll get into adding and modifying actions later for now we're going to skip down to the bottom of this window to Save and Generate. In the default action set at the bottom of the In actions hit the plus icon to create a new action. Let's hit the add button in the OnPress section of the SteamVR_Input_Boolean component. We welcome you to post about issues on our To start off, go ahead and download this package and extract it into a new Unity project. In the window menu you'll see a new option: SteamVR Input Live View. SteamVR Skeleton Input gives you one API to get per joint data for all of these different types of devices. Here you'll see a lot of unity events for different button state changes.Planting one flower at a time is okay, but I want more, like a lot more. Introducing SteamVR Skeletal Input In May we announced the new SteamVR Input system to allow developers to more easily support existing and future controllers, enable gamers to more easily customize their controls, and empower hardware makers to continue to innovate on VR input. In the binding UI select your game, select your current binding then in the lower right hand corner click the Input Debugger button.On the left you'll see a list of actions and their current states.
Select Plant.We want the same response on both controllers so under the A button on the other hand repeat the same steps.Now you can go to the bottom of the window and click the Replace Default Binding button.
Open up your scene view and your game view so they're both viewable at the same time and make sure the "Maximize on Play" button is unchecked. SteamVR Input is an API that makes it easy to support a variety of controllers and input devices in your VR application, without needing to think about supporting each controller separately. This is accessed through the new SteamVR Skeletal Input system. There are two key ways to take action on your gaze in Unity, hand gestures and motion controllers in HoloLens and Immersive HMD. If it prompts you about your local changes you can freely discard them since we explicitly exported those changes.We've created, generated, and bound an action now let's assign it to do something. All of the scenes, prefabs, the default camera rig, and the interaction system in the SteamVR Unity plugin now use this new system. By setting the There's five helpful events on the skeleton behaviour that have two forms.
Under function select the Plant method.Now when you go into Play mode you'll plant a flower on press down but also whenever the button is pressed at all. You can subscribe to the unity event or the more traditional C# event.
We've extended throwing examples, added a platformer controller, an RC car, a simple push button, grenades, and lots of hand samples.In the throwing section there's now a basic example of item interaction with velocity based movement similar to NewtonVR. You're not restricted to calling GetStateDown from inside an event, you can call it from anywhere, inside Update, coroutines, etc.If you'd prefer, you can reference actions explicitly in code by named property in the SteamVR_Actions class:We've also got some helper components if you're more comfortable with the editor than code. That will give me a list of options on what sort of mode I want to bind for this action. This is a live view of all your actions separated by action set and controller. Additive animation can be useful to app developers because it can be layered on top of other animation to provide additional, more dynamic motion. For devices with less data we estimate finger positions based on what buttons are being pressed while with more advanced controllers the data is just passed through.We have two ranges of motion that you can get bone data for.
Next to the text "Click" under Button you'll see a box that says None, click on that and it will prompt you to bind the button click to an action. In the inspector for these two components you'll see a dropdown for the "Plant Action" click on the dropdown and select \actions\default\in\Plant. As VR controllers advance we're seeing wildly different capabilities. Instead of writing the code to recognize "pulling the trigger button down 75% of the way to grab the block" you can now just focus on the last bit of that, "grab the block". We recognize that many of our developers are still on older versions of Unity and we are committed to continuing to support them. It's calling the AddOnChangeListener method and passing in a method we want called when the action changes. For example, pulling the trigger would move the game's index finger accordingly, moving your thumb on the trackpad would move the game's thumb accordingly, etc. You can subscribe to the unity event or the more traditional C# event.
