Yarp: Move ovrheadset YARP device to a separate standalone repository.

Created on 4 Sep 2020  路  5Comments  路  Source: robotology/yarp

To simplify installation of the software on Windows with the Oculus SDK, it would be great to move the ovrheadset YARP device to a separate repository. It could be named yarp-oculus-device or yarp-vr-devices if in the future we want to also add OpenXR-based devices.

@S-Dafarra Any news on this? Did you manage to test it?

I just compiled it, but I did not test it in practice. What would be the steps to move from the old YARP device to the new external one?

They are drop in compatible, so I guess that if you disable the YARP one, do a clean install, and then install the new one, no further modification should be necessary.

I imported the ovrheadset here:
https://github.com/robotology/yarp-device-ovrheadset

There are probably still a couple of things to fix, but the code is officially there, and the src/devices/ovrheadset in YARP is therefore frozen.

I will remove it from YARP as soon as I am sure that it works properly.

The superbuild was switched to use the new repo in https://github.com/robotology/robotology-superbuild/pull/518 .
