How do I calculate visual angles of objects in vizard?
I am using the DK1 Oculus rift. How can I calculate the visual angles of objects in the scene?

From wikipedia: "The visual angle is the angle a viewed object subtends at the eye, usually stated in degrees of arc. It also is called the object's angular size."
Heres a diagram: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...onDefs.svg.png Basically I want to find the perceived size of an object in terms of angle occupied in the visual space. I wasn't sure how to calculate this because I don't know how vizard calculates each screen or how the oculus may distort things. Also, is there an easy way to measure how big an object in vizard is? |

You can use vizmat.Distance to calculate the distance from the viewpoint to an object and node.getBoundingBox to get the dimensions of an object.
