Rotation (yaw) tracker for VR headsets
- supported APIs: OculusVR, OpenVR (SteamVR)
The purpose of the application is to monitor your rotations in VR and thus:
- improve the lifetime of the cable by preventing excessive twisting
- improve the VR experience as you don't have to actively monitor your turning direction or peek for orientation
- eliminate the need to straighten out the cable after a VR session
Cable Guardian uses customizable audio notifications, featuring:
- audio device selection
- a simple mixer for pan and volume
- editable trigger points and rules
- support for custom sounds (*.wav)
- user profiles
In version 1.1.0 a lazy man's alarm clock was added to further increase immersion as there will be no need to check on time.
- quicker to set up than the timer on a cell phone or Windows
- alarm will sound inside the headset
Cable Guardian runs in the background with minimal CPU usage and doesn't render anything on the HMD.
