Oculus Device

Control Device  -  Use an Oculus Headset and Controllers

A Control Device that allows to use a Oculus headset with optional controllers.

Requirement : ensure you have installed the Meta Quest Link app, and have your headset linked to your computer (via cable link or air link)

To connect the Oculus device, you will need to create the Control Device first.

Once your device is created, you should see messages displaying in the Device panel.

To use it, create an Oculus Camera in a Compo and select the Oculus device in the Oculus Camera ’s device selector. The controller’s thumbsticks can be used to move in space.

The content will only be displayed if the forehead sensor detects something.Therefore, if you want to preview the content in the Viewport without wearing the headset, do not forget to cover the sensor (with your thumb or a piece of black tape).

Important : to see your content in the headset:

• if you don’t have an Output, you will need to set the viewport in 2D

• if you are in “On Air” mode, you will need to activate an Output

If your device isn’t recognized by NVIDIA, you can force the recognition with the EDID available here: OculusRift

It may take some time to recreate the graphics resources when you unplug and replug the headset, so please be patient.

• Right Hand
