These files are for use with the VR Juggler 3.0 series.
You'll use exactly one "main" jconf file, and possible one or more "mix-in" jconf files to add functionality.
You must use one "main" jconf file setting up displays and head tracking.
-
The "main" jconf files in the base directory select some subset of the config files in
componentsto load in order to provide the desired functionality. So, you don't ever need to directly load a file fromcomponents,just pick the right main file and it'll be handled for you.Decide which to use based on these criteria:
-
What system are you using?
-
Desktop fishbowl setup
-
Big projection screen
-
-
Stereo or mono? Usually, you'll want stereo, except for things like photo shoots.
-
-
You may then also load additional "mix-in" jconf files to provide additional features.
-
mixins/hapticslab.wiimote.jconf- Use the Wiimote for head tracking. -
simview.mixin.jconf- Primarily for debugging - shows a simulator view with the projections displayed as well as the head and wand positions.

You might consider using the jconf-grapher to visualize the devices made available with these config files.
