is it possible to start the cardboard view automaticly when the device is able to do this? I am using vrview in a webpage.
Thanks for the help
No, by design. Users must be in control of their experience. requestPresent() can only be called in response to a user gesture.
https://immersive-web.github.io/webvr/spec/1.1/#interface-vrdisplay
Promise requestPresent(sequence layers
);
If the user is in VR mode and traverses a link, the new page will start in VR mode if the browser supports this.

Firstly I'm still fairly new to coding, saw people making games and fell in love with the idea of making your own game. So the past few months I've been learning unity tutorials and practicing basic games. I've come so far to be basically done with my first game. Everything is ready and I want to load and post it on playstore, but there's one last issue. When I run it on Unity on my pc it looks perfect but I loaded it onto my phone and the UI and some objects is either not showing or looking different than on the pc.Example1Example2Example3 These are examples of my problem. The IMG above is the way it should look like and the one underneath is how it shows on my phone when loaded.
It doesn´t look the same, due to the different resolutions.
Try to use a Canvas Scaler component. Set a reference resolution and the mode how you want to scale it.
If you want your UI elements to be anchored to the center/top/left etc. you should also set the anchor points. Here is a good Tutorial
A good way to instantly check the result is the "device simulator" It is a unity package
That's because of your Canvas settings & your UI GameObjects Anchor. But I think the easiest way to solve this for you - because you don't have that much experience about it - is to separate canvases for mobile & pc. This is the code:
private void Start()
{
if (Application.platform == RuntimePlatform.WindowsPlayer) // If your game's running on android
{
pcCanvas.SetActive(true); // Use PC designed canvas
mobileCanvas.SetActive(false); // Disable Mobile designed canvas
}
else // Your game is running on mobile
{
pcCanvas.SetActive(false);
mobileCanvas.SetActive(true);
}
}
Add this to a GameObject, Design 2 Canvases & assign them to script. (This will be a litte complicated, but will work) This link for more info
But if you want to use 1 canvas, you have to set its settings & its GameObjects anchors.
I'm building an openvr app for steamvr to assist with seated play (my room is small so my tracking area isn't ideal). My app pretty much just adjusts the play-area height when I hold the grip button and "scroll" on the touchpad so that I can reach objects that are too low/high at variable heights. (I tried "OpenVR Advanced Settings" but the options for keybinding with it is limited to simple button presses so I decided to make my own version).
I'd like to prevent touchpad input from being sent to the game while the grip button is being held, so that the moving on the touchpad doesn't cause movement in game, is this possible at all?
I'm assuming it's not possible, but wondering whether anyone has had any experience with this.
After your clarification in the comments the answer is no, you can not "eat up" device inputs in an application, I usually work on OpenVR drivers and there after you submit a device input and/or any other event its available to anything that expects pose update events, and event subscribers can not stop others from receiving the said events
However there might be a work around (if its still an issue) I know of at least 1 application that can do what you want and that application is OVR Toolkit (when the overlay is active and you try to click something in the overlay, the game running in parallel will not receive the input, however that will only happen if OVR Toolkit overlay surface receives input, it may be a built in OpenVR overlay feature and you don't have to do anything or it can be defined by the developer, I don't really have a want to test this right now)
Sadly though OVR Toolkit is not open source, but there is an open source toolkit for unity for making overlays, which is open source and might be the solution you're looking for, it can be found here
I'm working on a game for Google TV (Sony NSZ-GS7) which uses the touchpad to move things around.
AFAIK it is not possible (yet) to change or disable the pointer Arrow-bitmap programmatically, which is pretty shitty from game design perspective, is it at least possible to disable the default click-sound played by the device on every click so i can replace it with my own?
Try to disable the standard onClick noise using setSoundEffectsEnabled(false);
I'm creating an iphone app with video clips (among other things) where I need to play one or more ads before the actual video clip. Naturally my client doesn't want users to be able to fast forward during the ads but at the same time they must be able to exit the view so I cant set controlStyle to MPMovieControlStyleNone.
I would prefer not to hack the default view and remove the scrubbar so it seems my only option is to implement a custom bar with a single "Done"/"Back" button.
I've googled my eyes out trying to find example code for this, but no dice. I've seen similar questions posted here as well but no answers are given that could help me out. I'm a novice IOS developer and could really use som help with this (custom control bar with single "Done" button for fullscreen MPMoviePlayerController that shows/hideson tap OR disable scrubbar in an acceptable fashion – in fullscreen mode).
Anyone done this before or know where to find some example code? Thanks!
Im using ZXing, is working fine on my new app, but i would like to integrate the option of front or rear camera,
so far the only reference to this i've found is on the google group
But is not very clear what they mean with that,
so any pointers on what i have to do to accomplish this?
thanks !
ZXWidgetController doesn't provide that functionality and it's not really set up to make it easy to change.
The code that needs to change is in - (void)initCapture. It calls [AVCaptureDevice defaultDeviceWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeVideo]. This returns the default camera and you don't want the defalt.
You need code similar to that in - (ZXCaptureDevice*)device in ZXCapture.mm. That code won't work out of the box (it's designed to work with both AVFF and QTKit) but it's the same idea. Instead of using the default video input device, go through the devices and look at device position to find the device you want.
Be nice to port that code to the widget but that hasn't happened at this point.
