An Open-Source VR Interaction Framework for the HTC Vive and Unity
Functionally, Focal Point provides elegant solutions for:
Object manipulation
- for nearby objects
- for distant objects
- inertia-based physics (throwing)
- supports translate, rotate, and scale
Locomotion
- zooming into and out of worlds
- moving large distances quickly
- with no motion sickness
Aesthetically...
Focal Point inserts the joy of free 3d movement into VR interactivity. Moving objects and navigating environments should feel liberating and freeing, not tedious. To this end, many of the underlying principles of this framework are taken from dance, mime, and other performance traditions. The artistic and performative aspect of human movement is as important to this project as the functional aspect is. Read more.
