Consider adding a head model for default orientation-only configurations #426

Closed russell-taylor closed 8 years ago

russell-taylor commented 8 years ago

When in environments that have nearby objects, or a range of distances between objects, having head space (which is defined as between the eyes) translate when the head is rotated improves the perception of space.

We should consider adding an offset (0.06M?) in cases where we are not doing positional tracking. This models the actual distance from the center of rotation of the head to the center of the eyes.

We might also consider adding a neck model, assuming that we're rotating about the neck rather than the head, to improve vertical tilt motion perception.

This issue is a duplicate of the neck-model issue.
