Making my Unity Game with Stereoscopic View (VR)


I have built a Unity3D + Google Tango based game on the NVidia Dev. device. Everything seems to work fine, but now I would like to play this game in stereoscopic view (For Dive Goggles). I looked at the ExperimentalVirtualReality example (https://github.com/googlesamples/tango-examples-unity/tree/master/UnityExamples/Assets/TangoExamples/ExperimentalVirtualReality) and was successfully able to port all the prefabs into my game, but for some reason the experience is not satisfactory.

The stereoscopic view of my game tends to over lap with each other when I look through the Dive goggles. The experience is a quite off.

I noticed that there are some public parameters on the TangoVR Player Object in Unity Project for 'IPD in MM', 'Screen Width in MM', 'Eye Offset in MM', etc. Do I have to play around with any of these. What does these values even represent?

Any help or pointers will be greatly helpful and appreciated.


Solution

  • Thanks for all those who helped answer this. Many of my concepts definitely got cleared but nothing got me close to an actual solution. After researching a lot, I finally found this article (http://www.talkingquickly.co.uk/2014/11/google-cardboard-unity-tutorial/) super useful. it basically tells me to implement the Durovis SDK (https://www.durovis.com/sdk.html) with its Unity package.

    Everything was pretty straightforward and experience I got from it was so far the best.
