Controlling Fury windows by HTC VIVE

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Given the fact that Fury is based on VTK should be possible to link HTC controllers for VR, but how?

Hi @alecrimi,

• You need to compile VTK with this option and install your compiled version.
• By default after compiling VTK with openvr option, the object factory mechanism should replace the core rendering classes vtkRenderWindow by vtkRenderingOpenVR, it is transparent for you, and it should work.
• concerning interaction, you might have some work to do. only basic interactions are working.
• Concerning switching dynamically between VR mode and Normal mode, it is not done yet.

I hope this helps and let us know if you have other questions or if you want to meet online.
