![]() Left Click and Right Click are accessed by pushing in the Left and Right sides of the Vive controller touchpad, or the ABXY buttons on the Oculus Touch. ![]() The ray pointing from the controller shows where it is aiming, which is used to target objects to manipulate them, or to interface with the desktop and browser screens with mouse-like inputs. The third is the Virtual Controller, which is a virtual representation of your real-world motion controller. ![]() Aside from the background, everything you see in VR Toolbox is an object - desktop screens, browser screens, webcam screen, and all of the decorative props, are virtual objects that can be positioned, rotated, and scaled to your liking. The background can either be set to blank, or can have a skybox image used to ground the user and provide them with the context of an environment. The second is the VR Toolbox environment itself. It looks like this, and should be located on one of your Desktop screens. First is the VR Toolbox Global Settings window, which controls many of the functions and settings for VR Toolbox. General Use There are a few main components to VR Toolbox use and operation. Window orientation, backgrounds, and additional features can also be customized and automatically saved so when you exit and restart the application, it restores the same VR state. VR Toolbox offers quality graphics which are realistically lit by the screen, and props which personalize the VR space. The product is geared towards everyone from the casual VR user to those who want a fully-immersive VR experience with their headset on throughout. This “blended reality” allows for ease of typing and maintaining awareness of the physical world. The camera is blended with the virtual world and is activated based on a set of configurable gestures, such as the user looking down at the keyboard. MyDream has pioneered the concept of enabling the forward-facing camera on the VR headset for users to see their keyboard, grab a drink off the desk, or engage with people around them without the need to remove the VR headset. Part of a dream room is allowing infinite TVs and monitors, which is supported through VR Toolbox’s functionality allowing users to create as many web apps as they like, whether that means watching YouTube videos and playing a video game or Skyping with friends. For example, VR Toolbox users could build a cozy and intimate environment, an enchanted forest, or a futuristic spaceship-style room. This allows anyone to create the room of their dreams, with pre-made props and “technology posters” allowing users to decorate their rooms to their liking. VR Toolbox is an experiment on creativity and functionality in VR, with a vision to be a virtual room simulator.
