This site has been archived and remains strictly as a historical reference for developers who actively maintain apps built using the legacy Google VR SDK, which was last updated in 2019 and is no longer receiving updates.
  • All developers actively developing experiences for Google Cardboard should use the new open source Cardboard SDKs for iOS, Android NDK, and Unity XR Plugin. These new SDKs offer streamlined APIs, improved device compatibility, and built-in viewer profile QR code scanning.
  • The Daydream View VR headset is no longer available for purchase as of October 15, 2019. Existing apps on supported devices are unaffected for users who previously installed those applications. It is no longer possible to opt-in to Daydream distribution via Google Play.

GvrTrackedController

Represents an object tracked by controller input.

Summary

Manages the active status of the tracked controller based on controller connection status.

Fetches a GvrControllerInputDevice for the configured GvrControllerHand and propagates the device instance to all IGvrControllerInputDeviceReceivers underneath this object on Start and if the controller handedness changes. If the controller is not positionally tracked, position of the object is updated to approximate arm mechanics by using a GvrBaseArmModel. GvrBaseArmModels are also propagated to all IGvrArmModelReceivers underneath this object.

Properties

ArmModel

GvrBaseArmModel ArmModel

Gets or sets an arm model.

Used to control the pose (position and rotation) of the object and to propagate to children that implement IGvrArmModelReceiver.
