None of the options stop rendering or hide it or whatever on the hmd.

Code:
viz.MainWindow.visible(False)
Works at hiding the mirrored window on my PC's monitor but the scene is still being rendered on the HMD. Interestingly
Code:
 hmd.remove()
Doesn't seem to do anything.

I will have difficulty in hiding the scene with a quad since the user is immersed in the scene (subject can walk around and interact with the scene). In order to hide the scene with a quad I'd have to have reliable information about the head position and orientation which in the scenarios where I want to hide things, this data is inaccurate.

Alternatively I think I'll try positioning a black sphere around the head when I want to hide the scene, so that only the position data needs to be robust.

You can use parent=viz.SCREEN to have an object in screen based coordinates instead of int eh virtual world. works with vizshape at least.

Is also a symptom of not having access to the screen on the HMD through vizard. It could well be the same underlying problem as getting resolution of HMD, etc. all viz.MainWindow operations are for the window on the desktop, not the HMD screen.
