New Google Cardboard SDK

Hi zulman.

I am sorry, I created BP project and not install VS2015. I can compiled it with C++ project.
However, I got incorrect stereoscopic image on Galaxy Note 4. It seem cross-eyed viewing method.
Official cardboard app doesn’t have this problem.

Hi Yasei,

Yep, it’s a known issue.

As workaround you’re able to manually make your device profile and change this values (x,y) for your Headset+Phone Screen combination. It’s the biggest problem of the unnofficial solution - there is no information about Headset params, so unable to change distortion right. Hope we’ll see official Cardboard plugin at GDC 2016.

It’s simple really, There is no Cardboard support yet, because Epic Knows what Google is cooking up for it’s next VR device…

I would really prefer to use Unreal than unity.

I managed to get around it using the GearVR plugin, also using GearVR Developer mode
Bit of a mess about but least I can test games/Vr stuff using google cardboard =]

Are you aware that head tracking doesn’t work in developer mode?

So while you can run Gear VR app/game without plugging it into HMD, all you will have is camera pointing one way and it won’t move when you move your Cardboard around.

Hi Marce,

I am new in the VR field. Could you tell me how to render a VR video for cardboard? Thanks a lot?

Great news, official Google Cardboard support seems to be coming to the engine!

See here: https://www.reddit.com/r/oculus/comments/4iq3rq/androidvr_likely_to_be_announced_next_week_at/

It looks like the existence of a new “AndroidVR” (Google Cardboard) plugin was leaked in the breakdown of the latest 4.12 Preview 3 release notes.

This note has since been pulled.

It is slated that the Google Cardboard SDK will be relaunched as AndroidVR this coming Google IO.

From the looks of it, AndroidVR looks to be a collaboration of sort between Epic Games and Google.

Best,
Minxies

It seem that we finally have official Cardboard support, through the Daydream plugin presented in 4.12:

Perfect, It’s a big help for us from Epic Game
ALSO SPECIAL THANKS TO NobleSpoon for his plugin
