SpaceMouse

The SpaceMouse is an alternative to gamepad, mouse, and keyboard to navigate a 3D environment.

• This node is a singleton node.

• As a SpaceMouse node called spaceMouse is already defined in commons module. No other instance is allowed.

• Device position and orientation are relative to SpaceMouse zero position.

• Device X and Y are the plane axis. Z is the up axis.

  

Platform support

This node is supported on XR-Windows platform only.

Code example

This is a code example for the SpaceMouse node.

<!-- spacemouse declaration -->

<SpaceMouse name="spaceMouse"/>

<!-- using space mouse to move a mesh -->

<Mesh name="cube" mesh="template_dr|cube_default" rotationMatrix="transform" rotation="0 0 0 1" />

<route from="spaceMouse.connected" to="crt_moveMesh.execute" />

<Coroutine name="crt_moveMesh">

<local name="posX" type="sfloat" value="0" />

<local name="posY" type="sfloat" value="0" />

<local name="posZ" type="sfloat" value="0" />

<local name="speed" type="sfloat" value="0.1" />

<wait condition="[@spaceMouse.connected]==true" >

<set name="posX" value="#[@cube.position.x]+[@spaceMouse.devicePosition.x]*[@%speed%]*[@crt_moveMesh.deltaTime]#" />

<set name="posY" value="#[@cube.position.y]+[@spaceMouse.devicePosition.y]*[@%speed%]*[@crt_moveMesh.deltaTime]#" />

<set name="posZ" value="#[@cube.position.z]+[@spaceMouse.devicePosition.z]*[@%speed%]*[@crt_moveMesh.deltaTime]#" />

<set name="cube.position" value="[@%posX%] [@%posY%] [@%posZ%]"/>

</wait>
