Full Body in VR using GearVR+S7 Edge+Perception Neuron
polycounter lvl 3
Hi all,
I've been developing some projects in VR and I would like to share some of the results.
What I did was to combine together both the GearVR and the Perception Neuron suit, in order to have a full body animation inside a virtual environment, so that the user can freely walk around and interact with the environment itself.
I'm using the Samsung S7 Edge as a wifi router connected to a laptop in order to stream mocap data, and the scenes you see are made using the Unreal Engine 4.
Here are two videos showing the setup in action.
Lightroom scene
Dark Souls style test scene
The latency between the real movement and the movement in VR has been reduced quite a lot, still not enough to make a FPS style-game, but good enough for everything else.
I'm not planning to use this setup for game development but rather in working enviromments for different kind of situations.
Since the amount of free content available on the UE4 marketplace is pretty good I decided to build and use some simple scenes to show the results.
Best Regards
