Starting LPVR-AIR

Installation

Install the FusionHub APK and ALVR client APK on the headset using a side-loading tool like Sidequest. In case of a Meta Quest HMD this will require you to put the HMD into developer mode. See here the steps for putting the HMD into developer mode: https://developer.oculus.com/documentation/native/android/mobile-device-setup/

In case you’re using a VIVE Focus 3 headset you need to do something similar as described here: https://developer.vive.com/resources/hardware-guides/vive-focus-specs-user-guide/how-do-i-put-focus-developer-mode/The FusionHub GUI client and ALVR server can be started on the host PC without further installation, they can be run right out of the deployment folder.

ALVR requires SteamVR to be set up on the host computer. If you haven’t installed it on your computer yet, please refer to the instructions here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/250820/SteamVR/

Info

Make sure you turn the guardian (i.e. the automatic tracking boundary detection for the Quest’s internal tracking) is turned off in the developer settings of the HMD. For VIVE Focus use the equivalent setting in the Focus' configuration.

Start-up

  1. Run alvr_client_android/alvr_client_android.apk on your headset

  2. Start your optical tracking system (ART DTrack or Optitrack Motive)

  3. Run Start-LPVR-AIR.bat

Notes:

  1. Make sure the copy protection dongle is inserted into your computer

  2. To upload an APK to your HMD you might need to activate its developer mode

  3. In the FusionHub configuration script make sure to correctly configure your optical tracking system. The script can be accessed through the FusionHub GUI.

  4. Make sure to use a pre-configured HMD optical target provided by ART or Optitrack
