VR Manager Sections
VR Manager is divided into four sections; Calibrator, Monitor, Creator and Misc.
Tools. Depending upon your needs, you may not have reason to use al of these.
Calibrator
This tool enables accurate calibration of the Vuzix head tracker incorporated into or
plugged into your Vuzix video eyewear. It recognizes the various models of Vuzix
trackers, provides a calibration process and saves the calibration values.
Monitor
VR capabilities such as 3D video and head tracking support can be incorporated
directly into an applications code or, in some cases, enabled through an external
Extension, such as those provided with VR Manager. A broad assortment of thee
Extensions are provided along with the means to identify supported applications and
load the required resources.
Creator
Creator is an innovative resource that allows you to create your own Extensions to
enable 3D video and/or head tracking in games and simulators not already
supported. No programming is required, just the selection of the right combination
of available settings and parameters.
