Oculus Rift DK2?
« on: June 13, 2014, 01:09:41 pm »

Just a couple of weeks left until I get my DK2, will Outerra suport positional tracking?

We haven't yet integrated the new beta Oculus SDK, but there's already a support for positional tracking by combining DK1 with another tracker, so native positional tracking should work easily there as well.

I am about to get the full license and it will depend on the integration with Oculus Rift DK2... so great to hear you guys will be on it.

My rift hopefully will be here by Friday.  Any word on this?  I'd like to show it off flying the mig to my co-workers, although i'm done here at the end of August to head back to school.

Still working on it, but also on other things for the next release. Here are couple of preview screens:

Oculus DK2 in OT alpha preview images



A couple of notes:
  • works only in extended mode for now, but detects the right screen automatically
  • chromatic aberration correction is overdone, this is using the default Oculus values, so it affects every demo. It also seems to be different for left/right eye, calibration doesn't seem to help. I might try to adjust it, unless Oculus releases a fixed SDK build earlier
  • the narrower FOV lowers the immersion compared to DK1. I remember Luckey and Carmack saying that FOV was probably the most important aspect to immersion back in the DK1 days, so yeah.
  • it will be hard to reach stable 75fps in OT, much less 90fps for CV1
  • I want to experiment with pre-warping projection to make the apparent resolution better. It should be easy to do since we support special projection modes already, I mainly need to compensate for it in the warp shaders that are using Oculus provided warp meshes

Is it sad that I've gotten so used to watching Oculus videos on Youtube that my eyes automatically cross to see the 3D effect in pictures like this?  :o

True, i am also able to see the combination of the two images on my ipad, by crossing the eyes. Doesnt feel too good afterward though.

Looks amazing! I can't put my finger on it, but things are looking much more realistic than previous versions of Outerra.

Lower FOV? Why would a V2 lower it!
