=============== Minimal Example =============== A minimal example to create a VR session using the OpenHMD interface:: import sys import psychxr.drivers.openhmd as ohmd def main(): # create a session if ohmd.failure(ohmd.create()): sys.exit(1) # error, could not create context, exit if ohmd.probe() == 0: # probe for connected devices, returns number found print("Cannot find any OpenHMD supported devices on this system!") sys.exit(1) # get HMD devices found_hmds = ohmd.getDevices(ohmd.OHMD_DEVICE_CLASS_HMD) if not found_hmds: print("Cannot find any HMDs connected to this system!") sys.exit(1) hmd_device = found_hmds[0] # use the first HMD found # open the device ohmd.openDevice(hmd_device) # get HMD display info res_horiz = ohmd.getDeviceParami( hmd_device, ohmd.OHMD_SCREEN_HORIZONTAL_RESOLUTION) res_vert = ohmd.getDeviceParami( hmd_device, ohmd.OHMD_SCREEN_VERTICAL_RESOLUTION) # print the resolution of the display print((res_horiz, res_vert)) # close the device ohmd.closeDevice(hmd_device) # shutdown the session ohmd.destroy() if __name__ == "__main__": sys.exit(main()) The above example should work without having and HMD connected since OpenHMD will create a debug (Null) device.
