Like VR you mean? lol my next build is when I want to finally get into VR and try all the games I haven't been able to play yet :(
No, not VR. Headtracking. The head is tracked with something like a webcam to move the camera.
Wouldn't you look away from the screen?
You calibrate it so that a small head movement translates to a large camera movement.
Yo what how long has this been a thing?!
Check out OpenTrack!
Ohhh cool!! Thanks :)
That sounds better than the silly example I had in my head.
oooh spiffy.
Anecdotally; I am running Manjaro, with a valve index, and other than a few need-to-disconnect-and-reconnect my HMD, it's been solid and painless.
