How to change fieldOfView

[raminia]

I realized the field Of View is fixed and the interface does not support changing it. Is there any specific reason for this limitation or this is just not exposed?

You might be able to get what you need by adjusting the width of the player. Can you try starting the environment as follows:

controller.start(player_screen_width=2000) # this can be any number >=300

That should give you a pretty large field of view

How about vertical FOV?

[ekolve]

controller.start(player_screen_height=2000) # 

[ekolve]

though if you want a square aspect ratio and a larger field of view, we would have to parameterize some way for the camera position to be modified - its possible just not exposed.

One more question about FOV. Now in thor it is first-person view, can I change it into third-person view?

[ekolve]

@ElizabethDuo - could you open a separate issue to discuss a third person camera view?

@ekolve already open issue #65, thanks for your attention!

In version 0.044 (just released), I have added fieldOfView as a parameter to the Initialize action. Please take a look here http://ai2thor.allenai.org/documentation/actions. The value corresponds to this value on the Camera in Unity3d: https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/Camera-fieldOfView.html

Fixed with version 0.0.44
