a pc vr solution for hobos don't ask why

Works with IMU and camera based homemade VR devices, or other devices if you provide the tracking.

Steam View:

Debug view:

Some Beat Saber gameplay(done using color_tracker):

• From one terminal, run: pyvr server
  • This launches the server, which gathers information from trackers and passes that into steam. More info: Server Documentation
• Then, launch a tracker
  • Default tracker: pyvr track
    • This tracks bright spheres like in PSVR. Requires a webcam.
  • Implement and run a custom tracker. For example: python -m examples.poserTemplate
    • More info: Python Docs
• Then, launch any steam VR game.

1. Steam, SteamVR, and Python 3.7.x must already be installed.
2. In a terminal, run: git clone https://github.com/okawo80085/hobo_vr
3. Install the driver:
   • Windows:
     • double click the driver_register_win.bat file
   • Linux:
     • cd ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/SteamVR/bin/linux64/
     • ./vrpathreg adddriver "full/path/to/where/you/cloned/hobo_vr/hobovr"
4. Install python repo: pip-3.7 install -e .

Udu Multiple Device Tracking

Compiling the Driver

C++: openvr

Python: No extra requirements.

There's a lot still left to be done. Here are a few todo items:

Steamvr/Openvr:

1. Send frame textures over USB to a phone, using something like rawdrawandroid
2. Send frames wirelessly, compression depending on bandwidth.

General software:

1. Replace OpenCV so we can open the same camera every time instead of a random one. (Windows only. Already done in Linux.)
2. Real time SLAM for inside out tracking without IR or other LEDs.
3. Stereo depth estimation so 3D models or menus can interact with the world and with games, and so lag is less disorienting.
4. Scan body once with webcam, or opportunistically, so we can use IMU-only tracking later.
5. VR pass through.
6. Camera based finger tracking. Necessary for sign language users.

Hardware:

1. Create default list of parts to buy for controllers and headset.
2. Create simple IMU-only trackers to be used with Udu.
3. Create 3D printable models for headset, controllers, and trackers.

Would be Awesome:

1. Speech recognition. Just go full Iron Man + Jarvis.
2. Windows / UI

just do it

Custom Controller Textures(hobo_vr/hobovr/resources/rendermodels/hobovr_controller_mc0/onepointfive_texture.png could be changed to fit your desire):

Lots of tracking:
