Release Notes:

v0.2 - September 27, 2018

  • Major head-tracking smoothness improvement thanks to a workaround that eliminates duplicate reports sent by the firmware.

  • Major controller smoothness improvement thanks to implementation of the OSVR built-in "one euro" filter.

  • Slight trackpad calibration improvement - the trackpads should no longer "jump" to zero when you touch the very edge (unless you move your finger so far that it is no longer detected at all.)

  • Server config improvements - it is now easier to edit the server config files thanks to the use of additional aliases. This means that you can configure NOFC without touching anything in the "drivers" section.

    • Want to change the flip button? Just change the path that /NOFC/flipButton points to (by default, /controller/right/menu). Similar for recenter button and for setting up pitch/yaw/roll for DK2 users.
    • The only time you should have to edit anything in the "drivers" section is if you are not using an HDK2, in which case you may need to adjust the value of alpha in the very first driver entry.
    • As well, for ease of use the contents of the NOFC driver section have been compressed into 3 lines in the provided "direct" config file (with alpha still readily visible.)
      • If you would like to be able to edit these contents, please copy the drivers section from the "distv2" config file instead.
  • Headset marker button detection - the headset marker button is now given a semantic path at /hmd/button. Advanced users may find a use for this.

This new configuration combines the Nolo-OSVR plugin, the OSVR-Fusion plugin, and the official SteamVR-OSVR driver for a more enjoyable experience using Nolo hardware with OSVR.
