After activating the function, the output of the current camera image is enabled in the VR glasses. To be able to use the VR glasses, the drivers have to be installed appropriately. At the same time, the image is displayed in the graphics window according to the setting in the dialog CONFIGURATION INPUT DEVICES > VR.

VR quick start

Icon1 Camera toolbar

This function executes multiple functions at the same time.

  • Image display in the Oculus Rift is activated.
  • The fullscreen mode is activated.
  • If a camera path is present, it is replayed.

Control

Moving the head changes, the viewing direction, exactly as it would be in the real world. The recognition of the movement is done by sensors, in a similar way as smartphones detect movement. The control of the body (walking direction) is done by a controller or other input devices like mouse and keyboard. All interactions that are possible in the walking mode are also possible in Virtual Reality.

Stereoscopic autofocus crosshair

In the centre of the image (which corresponds to the viewing direction) a small crosshair is displayed. This point is used to set the depth for the autofocus of the stereoscopic image.

Centre VR headset

Icon1 Graphical menu in the walking mode
