Support for real-time gaze position data
Hello!
I have just started working with openvr. My system as follows:
- HTC Vive Pro Eye
- framework: NVidia OWL-OptiX-CUDA
- C++ with Visual Studio 2019
For my C++ application, I need the real-time gaze position of both of the eyes. I have read previous issue (#1544) about lips and eye tracking. However, I did not find any solution from their.
Is there any way I can have the real-time gaze positions from openvr? Or, Vive SRanipal or Tobii has such kind of support? By support, I meant any C/C++ library that I can include in my project.
I would sincerely appreciate your support.
Currently there is no standard way to do gaze tracking for OpenVR... because everyone wants to re invent the wheel.
Vive makes you use SRanipal, Tobbi makes you use their thing, someone else make you use their thing, etc. etc.
Me and a few other peeps from HoboVR Labs are working on a purely OpenVR interface for gaze tracking and face tracking, but it got a major slow down because of the bullshit happening in the world, i can't do any VR development right now (and i was working on the driver which integrated the said interface)
As for SRanipal and other migraines, google is your friend, try to look for code examples, because their APIs are weird and/or brain dead in a lot of places, good luck.
Thank you @okawo80085 for your reply, even in this worst time of your country. I wish you and your family-friends' safety and also hope this bad situation will over soon. God bless you.
