Hi everybody,

I tried google cardboard with my smartphone and though it would be awesome to use in xnalara.

Even if you don't have a gyro in your phone (only premium), no pb you can use a better solution head tracking using a webcam and trackir or freetrack( any vids on youtube)


I stream xnalara window content using Kainy server and Kainy with ads android client.
Now i would like to make a plugin or add a functionality in xnalara xps to make a stereoscopic view.

Anybody tried to develop it ?
Where can i find xps source code ? is there a repository ?

thank you

Interesting idea, but as I know, the source code for XPS is unavailable, but the code for XNALara is available at SourceForge (please use Google, I can't post links in the first 7 days).

BTW:
Since XPS 10.9.8.7.6.5.4 --  Countdown Script Edition  -- release 172 (http://xnalara.home-forum.com/t269-xna-posing-studio-10-9-8-7-6-5-4-countdown-script-edition) ... XPS have a "script interface" for writing extensions (plugins).
However, I recommend to implement the extension using a DrawableGameComponent (Like the Bloom effect, the "Display Normals" effect .... or the easter eggs "Mini game" and "Stereoscopy") [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
Code:

    /// <summary>
    /// This is a game component that implements IUpdateable.

    public class RenderStereoscopyComponent : Microsoft.Xna.Framework.DrawableGameComponent {

        private Game game;
        // ...

        public RenderStereoscopyComponent(Game game)
            : base(game)
        {
            this.game = game;
            DrawOrder = 10;
            game.Components.Add(this);
        }

        /// <param name="gameTime">Provides a snapshot of timing values.</param>
        public override void Update(GameTime gameTime)
        {
            // TODO: Add your update code here
            base.Update(gameTime);
        }

       #region Draw
        /// <summary>
        /// This is where it all happens. Grabs a scene that has already been rendered,
        /// and uses postprocess magic to add the same view with a different camera angle.
        /// </summary>
        public override void Draw(GameTime gameTime)
        {
            InitRenderTargets(format, game.Window.ClientBounds.Width, game.Window.ClientBounds.Height);
            // Resolve the scene into a texture, so we can
            // use it as input data for the stereoscopy.
            GraphicsDevice.ResolveBackBuffer(resolveTarget);
          ....
        }
       #endregion Draw

I am sure, you know what to do ... and your color-cross is quickly done. Good luck and show us your result.

Wow thank you everybody.
Yes i found xnalara code. I tried to open it with visual c# 2003,2005,2010 without success. I will try today with 2008.
It's very easy to code stereoscopy, it's just a 65mm translation (distance between the 2 eyes).
Plugin extension is the best solution indeed.
I will post maybe this weekend a first beta plugin and a complete tuto.

VC# 2008 is the right one.

in game.cs i register my component :

            graphicsDeviceManager.PreferredBackBufferHeight = DefaultCanvasHeight;
            graphicsDeviceManager.IsFullScreen = false;

            StereoVR svr = new StereoVR(this);
          

            base.Initialize();
        }

Now i have 3 problems :
- Moving the target camera is not a translation. I need to reverse calculate the camera distance+target from position
- There is a lot of lag when i switch to other programs
- I cannot load my Dynasty warrior or DOA models  Sad  because the mesh format is unknown even with "xps export to old format", this code is too old Sad
If somebody have a working model with this version (9.7.7).

Here the result with dummy model :

  1. Right, moving the target camera is not a scene Translation. So I had spoken about camera angle.
  2. Two render needs more performance than one render ... of course. but this should not be cause a LAG.
  3. There is no XPS Option like "Export to old >non-generic format" ... confused.
  4. The old DoF Format required:

    1. The mesh Name must be one of this names [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] ...
    2. the mesh must have the right amount of mesh parts ... with the mesh part names matching the used model loader from there [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
    3. the  the old tutorials are there [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]


  5. The offical models are there [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

I hope that this tutorial is not to teach me ? Laughing

The "alpha issue" has nothing to do with "backface culling" !
Solution:
Code:

            // render
            // -----------------
            // This is required .... or save the RenderState
           GraphicsDevice.RenderState.DepthBufferEnable = false;

           spriteBatch.Begin();
           spriteBatch.Draw(renderTargetLeft, leftRectangle, srcRectangle ,Color.White);
           spriteBatch.Draw(renderTargetRight, rightRectangle, srcRectangle, Color.White);
           spriteBatch.End();
           GraphicsDevice.RenderState.DepthBufferEnable = true;

BTW:
Already some ideas about the "select bone in 3D" issue ?
Already some ideas about the "Options-->Camera parameter ..." issue?

What is this "Select bone in 3D" issue ? ( maybe an other topic )
In Treejs we do it by using ray tracing projection. The first object the ray pass through is the selected bone there's a function for it.

Yeah for the camera dialog it's impossible to type a number. I will fix that.

The video is just the ir header tracking interface construction.
Compatible webcam list :
[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

For connecting free tracker the simplest way is to use PPJoy a joystick emulator (not telnet as i said previously ).
Then i created a Game component and i get head angles from gamepad axis :

Code:
yawAngle = (-MathHelper.PiOver4 / 150) * GamePad.GetState(PlayerIndex.One).ThumbSticks.Left.X;
                pitchAngle = (MathHelper.PiOver4 / 150) * GamePad.GetState(PlayerIndex.One).ThumbSticks.Left.Y;
                rollAngle = (MathHelper.PiOver4 / 150) * GamePad.GetState(PlayerIndex.One).ThumbSticks.Right.X;

The hard part is to calculate camera target ( i keep the initial distance but target is no longer the bone ). Something like this :

Code:
//Calculate the relative position of the camera                       
                position = Vector3.Transform(Vector3.Backward, Matrix.CreateFromYawPitchRoll(yawAngle, pitchAngle, rollAngle));
                //Convert the relative position to the absolute position
                position += game.Camera.Target;

                //Calculate a new viewmatrix
                viewMatrix = Matrix.CreateLookAt(position, lookAt, Vector3.Up);

Ok a little video explanation of the effect a try to render :

I'm back !!


There is an update for the Stereoscopic component in order to work with the head tracking system :

Code:

The head tracking component (freetrack.cs)
It works even without stereoscopy :

        static float sensibility = 20;

                Matrix m =
                Matrix.CreateRotationX(-game.Camera.RotationVertical + FreeTrackData.Pitch * sensibility) *
                Matrix.CreateRotationY(game.Camera.RotationHorizontal + FreeTrackData.Yaw * sensibility);
                Vector3 fo = -Vector3.Transform(new Vector3(0, 0, game.Camera.Distance), m);
                Vector3 ta = game.Camera.Position + fo;
                game.Camera.MatrixView = Matrix.CreateLookAt(game.Camera.Position, ta, Vector3.Up);

                // --- support for stereoscopy ---

                // angle is different if object is far or close
                // TAN angle =  (distance neck to eye)/2  /  camera.distance
                float angle = (float)(Math.Atan2(0.0325f, game.Camera.Distance)) * 2f;

                m =
                Matrix.CreateRotationX(-game.Camera.RotationVertical + FreeTrackData.Pitch * sensibility) *
                Matrix.CreateRotationY(game.Camera.RotationHorizontal + angle + FreeTrackData.Yaw * sensibility);

                fo = -Vector3.Transform(new Vector3(0, 0, game.Camera.Distance), m);
                Vector3 po = ta - fo;           

                game.Camera.MatrixView2 = Matrix.CreateLookAt(po, ta, Vector3.Up);
                                   
            } 
           
        }
    }
}

I tried to minimize the original code modifications but this code above need to modify CameraTurnTable.cs :

- Adding a new varaible
- Make matrixView and matrixView2 setable :
Code:

private Matrix matrixView2;

public Matrix MatrixView
        {
            get { return matrixView; }
            set {
                matrixView = value;
            }
        }
        public Matrix MatrixView2
        {
            get { return matrixView2; }
            set {
                matrixView2 = value;
            }
        }


Now how all this works :

1) The Freetrack system :
You need a webcam and an homemade 3 leds tracker . It's all explained here : [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Install freetrack (from the same link above)
Copy freetrackclient.dll to your windows directory ( the dll is in your freetrack install dir , in vista c:\programmes\freetrack)

Launch freetrack, setup your profile and camera ( read the manual pdf ).
Center the skull head, go output tab and uncheck all checkboxes but "freetrack interface".
that's it just run xnalara.


2) How to stream xnalara output to my smartphone :

on your pc :

- download and install kainy and run it.
- go to settings / network you will need the ip and password

On your smartphone :

- download kainy ( ads version works well also )
- connect your phone to your pc via usb ( i didn't tryied wifi )
- see usb tethering here ( [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] )
- launch kainy
- in server settings enter server ip (192.168.42.113 for me, to find it go to network center and status details of the new phone network) and port (5784). Enter the password ( on your pc is your password)
- click server -> connect
- launch xnalara
Voilà !

TrackIR is great for games like FSX or Warthunder. But why you need to track you head in a posing program? >.>

About Google cardboard... Well.... I've been "playng" with Oculus and Leapmotion for quite a long time. It's fun for user, but for coder it is hell unless you use Unity api. But the worst thing is image quality of Oculus / Cardboard. You can clearly see pixel matrix of the display. Next, you need at least 75 FPS to see smooth image. XNA Framework will allow 60 only. (Oculus DK2 uses display from Note 3)


Anyway I'm interested in how does it look using smartphone. And does it work using USB cable? cyclops So I'm awaiting some review of this "conglomerate" Very Happy

Just for fun Cool . And it's more natural to look with you head than mouse

You don't need 75FPS because it's not a game (no puke). In my duo core 1.6Ghz the rendering reactivity is very good even with the stereo rendering.
The problem is the image compression cpu needs to stream the pc through your phone when you move your head fast.

"Just for fun" - I take this bulletproof argumnet Very Happy I'm going to try it with Oculus. Still, the mouse is the best HID that ever existed. Mouse will be here long after our civilization disappear Very Happy
