Two Haptic Arms

[Rob-Otics]

I'm looking at using this plugin with two haptics arms for a Virtual Reality App within Unity using the arms to drive a mech around with haptic feedback.

Would it be possible to get the DLL source so I can adapt it to make the plugin work when using two arms?

Currently the second arm does not get detected correctly when creating two tools with two device ID

I will comment here because I would want to follow up on this conversation. However @Rob-Otics have you been able to finally resolve this? @nico202 We hope you'll answer soon.

Hi, I'm not the one in charge of this anymore. You can ask the contact available in the copyright file whether for them it is fine to release it!

Hi, first of all thanks for the helpful plugin! For a university project I am trying to integrate a self-developed haptic device in this plugin to evaluate the haptic performance of this device using Unity. Has anyone had experience with a similar problem or with the integration of an additional haptic device and could help me? Many thanks in advance! PS: Has anyone received a response from the contact person provided regarding the source code? I have tried, but so far in vain.

hello I found this thread while looking for a way to connect and run two Sigma7s with this plugin in Unity. I'm curious. Doesn't HPGE officially support two devices? If so, is it possible to obtain the already modified DLL or the DLL source so that I can modify it? I sincerely hope this problem can be resolved.

Hi, where I work we have a low priority project requiring two of them, I'll work on it in the following "days". I'll also check if I can publish all the code directly here

Hi all, I did have some contact with Gabriel around the start of the year around the release of the dll code but unfortunately I haven't had a response since.

Just to get my project done, I ended up reverse engineering a very primitive version using both the HPGE unity wrapper with unity v2021.3.16 and basic chai3d dll from https://github.com/jangyungi/unity-chai3d just to give me a baseline framework.

It's not very robust or as feature rich as the original HPGE wrapper as I had very limited time using the haptic devices themselves and currently no access to work on it further but I can look into whether it can be shared.

Hello nico202,

do you happen to have any good news regarding the release of the source code? Sorry to ask again, but the source code would be urgently needed for the integration of an additional haptic input device. Unfortunately the time for my master thesis is coming to an end. Thanks a lot in advance!

Got a green light from my boss to release the code, I'll try to release it tomorrow!
