Re: [Paraview] VRPN Setup

Hi Aashish, Thanks for your comments. To my knowledge, there is no reason why the eye separation must be specified in the same units as the raw tracking data. Paraview never uses my tracking data in its raw state. The tracking data is transformed to my chosen world coordinates before it is used

Hi Aashish, In my case, my tracker data is in mm but my chosen world coordinates are in meters, so I transformed the tracking data to meters and I expect the eye separation to be defined in meters too. It is. If you transform your tracker data, then you would have to adjust your eye

Dear Nikhil, Success! I believe I have the configuration right. Now I just need to add a wand. By the way, I may have found a bug / feature. It seems like I have to specify the eye separation value in mm, even though I have transformed my tracker units to metres in the state file. Perhaps this

Hi Nikhil, I have made the appropriate transformation to my tracking data, as you suggested. The display is now responding to the motion of the tracking targets. However, it is not responding to the rotation of the targets. I believe this might be happening because the tracking server is showing

Hi Nikhil, I have fixed the networking issues. There was an error in my state file and I had also made an embarrassing mistake with the build. It works now and the display moves when I move the tracking target. I recalibrated the tracking system and measured the coordinates of the screen corners

2012-07-09 Thread Sean Delaney
Hi, I'm trying to use paraview's VRPN functionality for head tracking. I've compiled Paraview 3.14.1 on linux (64) and I have one stereo screen. I'm using a Windows tracking server with IOTracker hardware / software. What works: Stereoscopic rendering (I use the cube source as a test).

Hi Nikhil and Stephan, Outstanding response time, thanks! As you say, my first mistake is not using a CAVE client-server setup. I have set up a CAVE display with the short pvx file below, (borrowed from the CAVE example). I run the server with pvserver /path/to/config.pvx I don't use MPI because

Re: [Paraview] Using paraview with a THREDDS server

2012-02-14 Thread Sean Delaney
Hi all, I'd like to find the best way to use Paraview when my data is on a remote THREDDS server. I'm not an expert on paraview or threads so I'd love to hear from anyone with experience doing this. I'm interested in visualising climate / weather data that is stored in netCDF format (conforming
