TBSteamVRDeviceManager

Overview

A wrapper that handles connection / disconnection events for Steam VR devices, and pulls their raw data into a more easily usable format that is more in line with other SDKs.

Dependencies

Platform must be set using TBEditorBuildSettings tool.

Usage

Accessing Device Data

A TBSteamVRDeviceManager script will automatically be added your scene if it's needed by any other TButt scripts. It handles controller and device ID assignments. Because it is an abstraction of controller data, is mostly only useful to access directly when you want to know information about a controller without spawning a representation of it in the scene (such as in TBDaydreamController).

A TBSteamVRDevice object is created and updated for each tracked device.
