❗ Looking for a maintainer to take over this project!

A Unity3D plugin for Phantom Omni and 3DS Touch/TouchX written in C/C++

Tested With:

Sensable Phantom Omni (IEEE 1394 Interface)

3DSystems Touch

Currently Only supports Windows though it should be straightforward to port it to GNU/Linux.

This is a wrapper for OpenHaptics geared towards Unity3D. This plugin is under development.

Supports:

• Sphere rendering
• Gravity well rendering

Build requirements:

• Cmake (unless you want to make a project manually)
• OpenHaptics by 3DS (which, ironically, is closed source). The build system will try to locate the header and library files under $(OH_SDK_BASE) Environment variable in Windows.
• (Optional) Set Environment Variable Unity_Plugins_Folder and uncomment the bottom of CMakeLists.txt to make the build system automatically copy the built library to your Assets/Plugins folder.

To use in Unity 3D:

• Copy the built plugin to your Assets/Plugins folder (or make the build system automatically do it for you - see CMakelists.txt)
• Create a new c# script that inherits from :Haptic
• Implement OnStylusButtonDown method
• (Optional) use stopCallback and startSphereCallback(...) to add a sphere and test your haptic device.
• Press Play

Customize

• Both the haptic plugin source and the Unity3D haptic class source are self-explanatory.
• Due to Unity3D/Mono limitations, if you make changes to the C/C++ library you must completely close and restart unity to load the new build of the .dll.
• Feel free to open an issue with feature requests
