How to call Oculus Remote

[Lenticularis]

Hi again

Thanks for your answer.
I'm referring to the canvas example script, yes.

I tried to change the keypresses to button checks but I can't get it working. Is there a mistake somewhere in my script?

I'd be really glad for any kind of advice.

import viz
import vizact
import vizcam
import vizdlg
import vizinfo
import viztask

canvas = viz.addGUICanvas()
canvas.setRenderWorldOverlay([800,600],50,3)
canvas.setPosition([0,0,0])

viz.mouse.setTrap(True)
viz.mouse.setVisible(False)
canvas.setMouseStyle(viz.CANVAS_MOUSE_VIRTUAL)
# Apply settings
viz.MainWindow.setDefaultGUICanvas(canvas)

import oculus
hmd = oculus.Rift()
viz.link(hmd.getSensor(), viz.MainView)

viz.go()

remoteEnter = viz.addButton(oculus.BUTTON_REMOTE_ENTER)
remoteUp = viz.addButton(oculus.BUTTON_REMOTE_UP)
remoteDown = viz.addButton(oculus.BUTTON_REMOTE_DOWN)

for i, model in enumerate(worlds):
	model.visible(i == 0)

controlPanel = vizinfo.InfoPanel(text='Navigate with WASD', title='Canvas Example')

controlPanel.addSeparator()
manual_cursor = controlPanel.addLabelItem('Manual Cursor',viz.addCheckbox())

		notice_panel.visible(True)

		yield viztask.waitButtonUp(manual_cursor)

		# Disable manual cursor control

		button_task.remove()
		notice_panel.visible(False)

viztask.schedule(ToggleManualCursorTask())

First get a handle to the remote controller:

hmd = oculus.Rift()
remote = hmd.getRemoteController()

Then in the function that updates the cursor check the remote controller button states:

if remote.isButtonDown(oculus.BUTTON_REMOTE_UP):
	pos[1] += inc
if remote.isButtonDown(oculus.BUTTON_REMOTE_LEFT):
	pos[0] -= inc
if remote.isButtonDown(oculus.BUTTON_REMOTE_DOWN):
	pos[1] -= inc
if remote.isButtonDown(oculus.BUTTON_REMOTE_RIGHT):
	pos[0] += inc

Does this work for you?

That's exactly what I was looking for, thanks!

But how would you change the ManualCursorButtonTask function?

def ManualCursorButtonTask():
	"""Use spacebar to manually simulate mouse press/release on canvas"""

	while True:

		yield viztask.waitKeyDown(' ', priority=viz.PRIORITY_GUI_HANDLER-1)

		canvas.sendMouseButtonEvent(viz.MOUSEBUTTON_LEFT, viz.DOWN)

		yield viztask.waitKeyUp(' ', priority=viz.PRIORITY_GUI_HANDLER-1)

		canvas.sendMouseButtonEvent(viz.MOUSEBUTTON_LEFT, viz.UP)
