Mach1 Orientation Manager publically aggregates external orientation devices to promote access to headtracking for developers and creators alike.
The Mach1 Orientation Manager aims to aggregate all 3rd party IMU and methods of headtracking to a single API that any developer can incorporate into their software to encourage more creative usage of headtracking for audio.
We encourage manufacturers and developers of any headtracking-enabled device to also directly incorporate their tool into the Mach1 Orientation Manager to cut down on repeated development for the audio headtracking community and promote better demonstrations and examples of interactive audio.
The project already has cross-platform hardware support for all common device communication protocols; whether the device connects via Bluetooth, BLE, USB, Serial, WiFi, Camera, or OSC the project can safely handle the device, ensuring seamless communication. The overall architecture is designed to encourage outside contribution and easily add new devices as submodules to handle licensing safely.
The Mach1 Orientation Manager
Aggregates all external device protocols such as USB, Serial, BLE, Bluetooth, WIFI, OSC
Aggregates IMU enabled devices from various vendors for headtracking
Can be easily extended allowing other devices or connection types to be added
Can be added to other software in an effort to build a standard of headtracking for the community
“We’d like to encourage developers to contribute to this project to aggregate all forms of headtracking support more easily for developers across all communities,” says Mach1.
