Die GPN war klasse! Danke euch allen! 
Hier unser Vortrag:
FOSS-Eye-Tracking für Menschen mit ALS
Außerdem, wer mitmachen will, gerne melden: https://eyes-on-disabilities.org/de/06-miscellaneous/contact.html
Was zum Beispiel gebraucht wird:
- Texte schreiben
- Setups ausprobieren
- Software einfacher machen
- Weitere Soft- und Hardware finden
- Kopfbewegung lösen
- 3D-Modellierung und –Druck
- Mobile-Dev
Gerade ein altes #FlightOfNova Video von @bekopharm auf Peetube gefunden: https://peertube.tv/w/iV21V6EZxNCTsC8bvsCQDt
Da dachte ich mir, trägt der gute Mann nicht eine Brille, und wie funktioniert das #Headtracking dann? Hatte das mal mit #StarCitizen ausprobiert und das ging bei mir nur mit Kontaktlinsen.
Wir halten einen Vortrag bei der GPN

Hell yes. #xwvm announces public alpha.
I'm playing this for a while now having an absolute blast. This also works on #Linux including #HOTAS / #HOSAS and #HeadTracking with #Opentrack

Dunno if you heard of #BeamEyeTracker before. It's positioning itself next to #Tobii but uses just a webcam and #Opentrack, so probably just #Neuralnet tracker on steroids - but I'd still appreciate if you could chime in for a #Linux build at https://steamcommunity.com/app/2375780/discussions/0/4757578278664103829/ too as it seems to be read by the dev|s.
TOLLE NEUIGKEITEN:
Wir gehen bald regelmäßig in die Alltags- und Pflegeassistent. Wir möchten das Leben von Betroffenen von ALS und MS besser verstehen, und mit ihnen zusammen unsere Eye-Tracking-Lösungen weiterentwickeln. Wir freuen uns riesig auf die Menschen, die wir kennenlernen werden und hoffen, ihnen helfen zu können.
Den Kontakt ermöglicht uns die IFB-Stiftung. Danke für das Vertrauen: https://ifb-stiftung.de/

· Gente comprando Tobii Eye Tracker (300€)
· Unos pocos valientes fabricando su propio hardware con impresoras 3D, soldando LEDs, resistencias, cables etc. ( +/-25€)
...y yo que me entero ahora 
: existe el #software OpenTrack ( también en Linux 
) que funciona GENIAL y es tan sencillo como usar cualquier webcam cutre o simplemente con el móvil !!!

Another XR connector for OpenTrack
Remember my proof concept to read IMU data of my #XR glasses to #OpenTrack?
hodasemi wrote a #Rust connector based on the idea that works without #Breezy: https://github.com/hodasemi/xr_to_opentrack_rs – comes with a systemd service file so it can run in the background.
Once installed the only step left to do is fire up OpenTrack

Star Citizen with head tracking from XR glasses in SBS mode on Linux PC – Yes it works!
So I was asked if my head tracking approach of reading the IMU data from my Viture Pro to OpenTrack and SBS (side-by-side) mode with ReShade would also work with StarCitizen.
Guess it does 
Pick your poison to watch the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWUC2Y3TRh4 / https://makertube.net/w/8L7gVN8NnLvjhQCPGNmd6W
I start Star Citizen via Lutris (and not with Steam), which requires slightly different settings once ReShade is installed:
Es
/Mx
Enable Gamescope: ONOutput Resolution: "3840x1080"Game Resolution: "3840x2160" (set this also ingame!)Custom Settings: "--scaler stretch"Can this get you banned? Who knows Jury is still out on this. Do I care? Nope. I won’t miss my puny starter pack.
YMMV.
The proof of concept code to read the IMU data can be found at https://github.com/bekopharm/xr_to_opentrack (pending changes).
It works with the Breezy GNOME xr_driver: https://github.com/wheaney/breezy-desktop (but the Vulkan one works probably too but that’s untested). It should also be compatible with other glasses that have IMU for Breezy available.
There is an unlisted SBS version of this video linked in the description. You will need XR glasses that do FULL SBS though to watch it!
Demo: FreeSpace 2 Open with head tracking from Viture Pro XR glasses IMU data – on Linux PC
Until now I used OpenTrack with my DIY IR tracker or the Neuralnet tracker. I knew that my XR glasses feature IMU data though and the xr_driver of the Breezy Desktop project allows to access the data via IPC on Linux PC. So I did what Linux user do: I wrote a script to access the IMU data and forwarded it via UDP to OpenTrack:
Pick your poison to watch the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njuumLUvqrM / https://makertube.net/w/2bNyxJhdyydTeFq17onikv
This reminded me that I also wrote a proof of concept to implement the FaceTrackNoIR (or OpenTrack) protocol into FreeSpace 2 Open on Linux PC ( https://makertube.net/w/7VtfAjW7EiAUS5aiPwG7if ) so I gave it a spin to test the data bridge. That was smooth sailing!
The mod is Diaspora: Shattered Armistice, still awesome today: http://diaspora.hard-light.net/ (Warning: This may fuel a desire to re-watch the BSG series again 
).
The bridge code can be found at https://github.com/bekopharm/xr_to_opentrack (pending changes).
It works with the Breezy GNOME xr_driver: https://github.com/wheaney/breezy-desktop (but the Vulkan one works probably too but that’s untested). It should also be compatible with other glasses that have IMU for Breezy available.
