Binaries

Latest build available at http://research.m1stereo.tv/ue/VRPN-Free-d.exe.7z

Building

Recent built was made with Visual Studio 2017. Building procedure is simple:

1. get the sources with git

2. update source code of 3rd party tools used: git submodule update --init --recursive

3. copy vrpn's and quat's projects files:

• submodules/quatlib.vcxproj to submodules/vrpn/quat/quatlib.vcxproj
• submodules/vrpn.vcxproj to submodules/vrpn

4. open solution file with Visual Studio and build

Test/evaluation operation

1. Setup streaming to your host of Free-d data from camera or Simulator (see a last page of documentation at https://disruptar.com/downloads/) [data_streaming_simulator.png]

2. run compiled binary with arguments:

VRPN-Free-d.exe 3884 11111

where:

• 3884 is TCP port used by VRPN server
• 11111 is UDP port used to receive UDP data

if you receiving UDP data you will see a messages in console:

ID=255|Pan=137.0000|Tilt=146.0000|Roll=  0.0000|X=  0.0000|Y=  0.0000|Z=  0.0000|Zoom=  525|Focus= 2092 

3. test from remote server with VRPN tools:

vrpn_print_devices.exe [email protected]:3884

resulting will similar to:

Tracker [email protected]:3884, sensor 0:
        pos ( 0.00,  0.00,  0.00); quat (-0.30,  0.95,  0.01,  0.02)
