VR Menu

VR Menu is a set of runtime tools that can be accessed while playing a simulation in virtual reality.

Visualization

The VR menu contains two tabs: toolbox and settings.

Toolbox

The Toolbox contains the following features :

Functions Description
Cross section Create a cutting plane attached to the controller.
Photo Takes pictures in VR (all screenshots will be stored in the ‘Screenshots’ folder).
Marker Draw/write notes in VR.
Laser Grab Allow the user to grab objects from distance.
Measure Measures the distance between two points in space.
Grab Allow the user to grab objects with the avatar's hands.

Note

In order to view the cross-section, materials need to use our custom shader Standard Triplanar with Cut. This is usually the case if you import your model through Pixyz plugin.

Settings

In the settings tab you can:

  • Select the navigation mode: Teleport or Fly mode.
  • Calibrate Height: To edit the Height of the avatar according to the current headset position
  • Start the calibration (only displayed if you use the ergonomic player). Read more on ergonomics with INTERACT.

Interaction with menu

Simply point to an item and click on trigger using the laser pointer.

Using the bottom button will allow you to move the menu in the scene and place it where you want.

You can switch hands currently using the tools. The other hand can be used to teleport, or retake control of the active feature.
