Examples and Scene Settings

This project includes two pre-configured scenes:

These scenes do not require additional configuration and serve as a blueprint for Magic Leap's MRTK integration. They can also be used as a guide for creating custom MRTK Configuration Profiles.

Add support to existing scenes.

If you want to test other MRTK Scenes, additional configuration is required. The steps below explain how to configure other scenes to support the Magic Leap platform. Please note that some Magic Leap features are still not supported. See the limitations section for more details.

  1. Open the HandInteractionExamples scene.
  2. Select the MixedRealityToolkit in the Hierarchy. Set the configuration to the MagicLeap1 ConfigurationProfile.
  3. Select the Main Camera and in the MixedRealityInputModule select Force Module Active is enable. This enables interaction with Unity's canvas components.
  4. Verify that the Camera has a TrackedPoseDriver with the default values:
    • Generic XR Device
    • Center Eye - HMD Reference
    • Rotation & Position
    • Update & Before Render
  5. Some examples may require additional controller and hand configuration to insure proper interactions - see the Input section for details.
