Hi,

Very nice job you did 👍

I found your project when looking for a way for connecting my iPhone as a head tracking device and send data to OSVR so it can iterprete it as a official HMD device.

What bothers me is that it only supports Geforce Experience streaming.

I've tried to find a way to communicate with my existing setup:

• iPhone with KinoVR installed - it connects with computer and sends UDP data with 4242 port
• KinoConsole Server installed on PC - it receives Video and forwards data from head tracking to OpenTrack on port 4242
• OpenTrack Server installed on PC - it listens for forwarded packets from UDP 4242 port and translates it to FreeTrack OR forwards it further on any ip and any port. (for this example i choose 127.0.0.1 and port 5555 trying to send to OSVR-Cardboard plugin)

What I found in your OSVR code is that SOMETHING is using 5555 port :) So i simply tried to forward opentrack data to your OSVR-Cardboard plugin on port 5555 with OpenTrack

It doesn't even recognized any connection :)

Tell me - is it possible to send pure data to your OSVR-Cardboard plugin ? As far as i don't have a GeForce graphic card and I've already managed to stream video from my pc to iPhone.

Thanks,
Paweł

1. Android head tracking support (FreePie IMU (better) or Wireless IMU.)

To head tracking need to add reading from UDP port 5555 data from the FreePie IMU (accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer). or Wireless IMU example UDP packet:
890.71558, 3, 0.076, 9.809, 0.565, 4, -0.559, 0.032, -0.134, 5, -21.660,-36.960,-28.140
Timestamp [sec], sensorid, x, y, z, sensorid, x, y, z, sensorid, x, y, z
Sensor id: 3 - Accelerometer (m/s^2); 4 - Gyroscope (rad/s); 5 - Magnetometer (micro-Tesla uT);

2. Bundle OSVR runtime with Cardboard plugin. Install files to path "SteamPath" key in registry "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Valve\Steam" and create shortcuts OSVR server (with configs, plugins) to desktop or video guide for setup SteamVR with all need drivers OSVR, with all configs ("steamvr.vrsettings" or etc).

Thanks.
