Getting Started
Vizard has a very nice tutorial and help file that is also available online on the Vizard website. It explains the basics of Vizard and also if needed the basics of Python the language used to control Vizard.
HMD
With just a few lines of code Vizard can easily work with an HMD. All you need to add/replace from your code to get a image on the HMD are:
- viz.displaymode(800,600,32,60) <viz.displaymode(width-screen,heigh-screen,color depth,refresh rate)>
- viz.go(viz.QUAD_BUFFER |viz.FULLSCREEN) <replace the viz.go() with this>
Trackers
flockofbirds
emagin
To get Vizard to accept input from the eMagin tracker (integrated in the HMD) you need to add the tracker as a sensor in Vizard and then link the sensor to the mainView-point
- sensor = viztracker.add('emagin.dls')
- viz.link(sensor,viz.MainView)
Don't forget to disable the eMagin mouse drivers if these are enabled in the "Control Panel>System>Hardware>Device Manager" list
