Positional Tracking update for the #Oculus DK2/CV1 with a working prototype! Awesome work being done by contributors over the years with Jan Schmidt doing lots of heavy lifting for the last 2 years! #FOSS #VR #XR Branch available in the video description. youtu.be/3AdmS3vy7ZE

Did I just become the first person in the world to complete a Beat Saber level with my Oculus CV1 under Linux? I think so! youtu.be/dc_Dpfl1I8o OpenHMD

noraisin.net/diary/?p=1031 - a new blog post on this weekend's LED matching changes for OpenHMD positional tracking.

I made some simple changes to the pose recovery search in github.com/thaytan/OpenHM…. Still generally terrible under fast motion, but I managed to finish some Beat Saber on Hard setting. I'm working on a session recording / debug tool for the next improvements. OpenHMD #OculusCV1

I've published another video in my OpenHMD Oculus Rift tracking update series: youtu.be/TnLvAaWnZuE

New Rift tracking commits at github.com/thaytan/OpenHM… - I fixed some gravity vector calcs and improved pose search speed and it's mostly tracking quite well now. Played an hour or so on Beat Saber at expert level. OpenHMD

This is what the current OpenHMD Rift tracking branch is capable of in the right hands: youtube.com/watch?v=sxMA7q… I'm super happy with how far it's come in the past few months.

In 2 days, it'll be 2 years since I started work on Rift CV1 positional tracking. As an anniversary present, here's a wall of words about the state of things: noraisin.net/diary/?p=1046 OpenHMD

I rewrote some of the pose calculations in the OpenHMD Rift CV1 driver this weekend. Among other things, it fixes velocity reports so gravity-grab in Half-Life: Alyx works now.

Here's a brief update on what I've been working on in OpenHMD Oculus CV1 support lately: noraisin.net/diary/?p=1053

I am very happy with heuristics I added to detect bad pose detections in OpenHMD Oculus CV1 tracking over the past few weeks. In general they work really well. Tracking losses are rarer, but still occur under specific fast motions and are getting trickier.

I wrote an update on what VR things I've been doing with my weekends since August: noraisin.net/diary/?p=1055 #OpenHMD #Oculus

I found a bug in my code to match LEDs to blobs in video frames, leading to unstable correspondences and jitter - especially in the controllers. Makes a huge difference! (plots are from separate before and after recordings) #OpenHMD #RiftCV1

Merry Christmas everyone! As a gift, I just finished implementing JPEG support for Oculus CV1 sensors connected to USB 2.0 ports. github.com/thaytan/OpenHM… #OpenHMD
