Latest Unity Plug-ins for Vive development
We’re just as eager to see your experiences as you are, so we’d like to help. We’ve recently released three Unity plug-ins designed to speed up and enrich the Vive development process. They’re all free and downloadable from the Unity Asset Store:
Vive Input Utility 1.4.7

This plug-in is a sophisticated input wrapper that:
- Makes it easy to get button and event tracking data from Vive devices
- Takes advantage of the Unity Event System for laser pointers while adding a custom stabilization and damping effect
- Eliminates the need to write redundant code to manage Vive devices
- Provides the ability to interact with UGUI using laser pointers
MediaDecoder 1.0.1

The MediaDecoder is a high performance video player decoding plugin that:
- Makes it easy to create a VR video player
- Supports playing 2D, S3D, 360 and 360-degree stereo video
- Performance optimizations can enable 8K video decoding above 90 FPS
- Uses FFmpeg 3.0.1 library
- Works with many implementations, not just Vive-specific ones
- Free to use
Vive Stereo Rendering Toolkit 1.0.0
Download: http://u3d.as/A4F
Use the Vive Stereo Rendering Toolkit to:
- Create parallax effects for mirrors, portals, security cameras or other items that would otherwise appear flat in VR
- Drag-and-drop components to create stereoscopic rendering effects in a few minutes
- Achieve more immersive VR experiences
Have fun!
