CarvingManager & OmniEvent applications: who wrote these? Can we chat?

[Michel]

Hello,

my student Cece and I would like to develop an OmniEvent-based simulation that processes the button pressing of the Omni. We saw that CarvingManager seems to have code based on OmniEvent, but we are unclear on what it does.

Can we start a conversation with whoever wrote CarvingManager, or whoever wrote an application that uses not just the position, but the button events, of the Omni device?

Thanks,

Michel

Dear Michel,

I know you have been in contact with some of our engineers.
Have your problem been solved or do you still need help on this ?

Best,

Hugo

Dear Hugo,

we have received a scene file but I don’t know yet how far Cece has gotten with it. We will report back shortly.

Meanwhile, Happy New Year.

Best wishes,

Michel

Hi Hugo,

we have a new version of Carving Manager, but our version of SOFA is a few years old, and when we tried to compile the Carving plugin, it did not load properly. We will retry with a newer version. We’ll report back later.
Best wishes,
Michel

Hi Michel,

Nice to hear! Do not hesitate to download our binaries!
We have them for Windows and Linux.

Looking forward to hearing from you,
best,

Hugo

Hi Hugo,

I don’t think that we can work with the binaries. The whole point is to be able to implement a research project, using CarvingManager as a template for handling haptics events. That’s the beauty of Open Source. We’re not really interested in running CarvingManager for its own sake. We are currently building the latest version, and hopefully the plugins build correctly, including CarvingManager, and allow us to demo haptic events from the Omni.

Cheers,

Michehl
