SN of HMD

[razoredge]

   Is there a way to get the serial number for Vive Focus devices not yet running VIU? Possibly from WVR_GetParameters?

 

Something like this? 

char pchString[256] = "SerialNumber";char retString[256] = { 0 };uint32_t size;//Get the result from device servicesize = WVR_GetParameters(WVR_DeviceType_HMD, pchString, retString, 256);

Hi  ,

 

No, Wave doesn’t provide the API getting S/N to developers since PII security concern. Developers may follow Android policy to get it.

Thanks.

  but assuming we do migrate our client apps to use Vive Input Utility, what about IVRModuleDeviceState.serialNumber as  mentioned in the reply above this?

 I just checked IVRModuleDeviceState.serialNumber does not actually print out Focus HMD's serialNumber. I printed out as WVR_DeviceType_HMD.

Hi  ,

 

Just clarified that the method of VIU suggested by Dario is working on PC, but not supported on Focus/Focus Plus since PII (Personal Identitfying Information) concern.

The alternative way for you is from Android API we provide previously.

Thanks.
