Data Orientation

Post by slinkenauger »

Hello,
I am using Motive to stream tracking data for a VR device. The problem is that the data that streams out of Motive has a different orientation than my VR software. For example, when I look the the left in the virtual environment, it appears that I am orienting to the right. However, the position data is just fine. Is there any reason as to why this is happening and is there away way to consistently alter the output of the streaming data to fit the coordinates in my VR software?

Try changing the Application Options from "Right-handed" to "Left-handed". I believe in one of the newer versions of Motive it is just a boolean flag, so try alternating that and try your application again. We have the same issue with Unity, as Unity is a left-handed system, we always have to flip this setting.

Good Luck!
