new dev - iOS missing stereo, split-screen?

by cmloegcmluin on Sep 2nd, 2014 06:18 AM

Hi there, sorry, i'm sure this is a n00b question, but i have been scouring the internet for days and cannot figure out how to implement split-screen stereoscopic view in my iOS app!

- I have the Dive SDK OpenDiveSensor script attached to my camera in Unity. The gyro is working, at least.
- I have a Unity Pro licence.
- I'm using TestFlight to get the app on my iPhone 5, if that makes a difference.
- I'm on a Mac if that makes a difference.

I have the Oculus SDK, though not my DK2 yet to test anything there.

Any guidance would be appreciated!

the IOS part is still not fixed yet, and you can just make two cameras : one with 0.5 width starting at 0 one with 0.5 width starting at 0.5 set the x coordinate of the first one to about -0.03 and the second one +0.03.

dont assign the cameras to opendivesensor yet in ios, will post an update to ios part soon.

thanks Stefan. I will try that for now.

do you have any idea when the iOS update will come?
(i was hoping to have a demo of my app ready for an event tonight, if possible)
thank you in advance!
i am grateful that you built this awesome tool, helping beginners like me get started so quickly

one follow up question, though — why shouldn't I assign the cameras to OpenDiveSensor yet?
i would still need it for the gyro control, at least.

Hi Stefan, is there any update to the iOS part of the Durovis Dive SDK?

Even without stereoscopic distortion, or automatic screen-splitting, I am still finding the experience on iPhone fundamentally unusable.

I do not believe it is performance related because I have optimized the rather small project in Unity. The camera motion is simply sickeningly jittery with a ton of drift.

Haven't been able to find any alternative for iOS yet. Perhaps I should just switch to become an Android dev!
