Auto Oculus Touch v0.1.7 (Latest release 11 Jan 2021)

kojack

AutoOculusTouch is a library and script for AutoHotKey. It allows you to read the state of oculus controller devices (Touch, Remote or XBox controller) from within an AutoHotKey script.

Downloads

Binary release - https://github.com/rajetic/auto_oculus_touch/files/5792865/auto_oculus_touch_v0.1.7.zip
Source - https://github.com/rajetic/auto_oculus_touch

Prerequisites

You must have AutoHotKey installed. It is available from https://autohotkey.com
(AutoOculusTouch is tested against AutoHotKey version 1.1.33.02)
If you want vJoy support, you must have it installed. It is available from http://vjoystick.sourceforge.net/site/index.php/download-a-install
(AutoOculusTouch is tested against vJoy version 2.1.8)

Change History

v0.1.1 - Initial release. Built against Oculus SDK 1.10
v0.1.2 - Added capacitive sensor support. Built against Oculus SDK 1.20
v0.1.3 - Changed initialisation to use Invisible mode. Added button comments to example script.
v0.1.4 - Added vibration. Added orientation tracking (yaw, pitch, roll) for touch. More example scripts. Built against Oculus SDK 1.26
v0.1.5 - Added vJoy integration. You can now output gamepad/joystick values for axes and buttons.
v0.1.6 - The vJoy installer has a slightly higher version than the latest vJoy sdk, which breaks compatibility. I've updated it so it should work again. I've added in the Oculus and vJoy sdk files needed to compile, some people had issues setting things up. It should be fairly self contained now. Built against Oculus SDK 1.41. I've improved the vJoy script to have all buttons.
v0.1.7 - Added new functions to get axis and button values. Added position tracking for controllers and headset. Added headset rotation. Added tracking origin control (floor or eye). Changed vibration to take a length to play an effect for (replaces oneShot parameter). Updated the example scripts. Changed main auto_oculus_touch.ahk script to use faster DLLCall system. Added error messageboxes for init of oculus and vjoy. Added raw mouse movement and buttons, for games made with Unity that ignore normal AHK mouse. Updated Oculus SDK to v23.

Installation

AutoOculusTouch can be placed anywhere. No explicit installation is required.
There are several files included in the AutoOculusTouch binary release:
- auto_oculus_touch.dll      (A library that wraps around the Oculus SDK.
- vJoyInterface.dll             (Interface to the vJoy drivers)
- auto_oculus_touch.ahk      (An AutoHotKey script that defines various Oculus related functions. This is needed by the other scripts)
- oculus_remote_mouse.ahk    (Lets you use the remote as a mouse. Up/Down/Left/Right move. The centre button is left mouse. The back button is right mouse)
- oculus_remote_spotify.ahk  (Send media keys with the remote. Up is previous track, Down is next track, centre button is play/pause. Not just for spotify, works with any media key compatible program)
- oculus_touch_mouse.ahk     (Move the mouse with the right touch controller. Index trigger is left mouse. A is right mouse. Thumbstick is mouse move. Press B to reset yaw centre point to your current heading)
- oculus_touch_air_mouse.ahk (Move the mouse using pitch and yaw, like an LG TV remote, when you are holding the right hand trigger. Index trigger is left mouse.
- oculus_touch_test.ahk      (Display a GUI of all touch values)
- oculus_touch_vjoy.ahk      (Turn the Touch controllers into a virtual gamepad for DirectInput games)

You should keep these files together. The auto_oculus_touch.dll should be in the same location as any scripts you want to run.

Running

To start AutoOculusTouch, double click on one of the scripts (not auto_oculus_touch.ahk, it doesn't do anything on it's own). A green icon with a white H should appear in your system tray. AutoOculusTouch is now running.

Customising

The provided scripts has some example behaviour already defined. You can change any of this, or make your own.

AutoOculusTouch can give you:
- index and hand triggers of a Touch, as floats from 0.0 to 1.0.
- thumbstick axes as floats from -1.0 to 1.0.
- all Touch, Remote and XBox buttons (except the Oculus Home button and remote volume buttons).
- all Touch capacitive sensors.
- all Touch capacitive gestures (index pointing and thumbs up for either hand).
- Pitch, Roll and Yaw of both touch controllers and headset in degrees.
- Position of both touch controllers and headset in metres.
- Set continuous or limited time vibration effects of different frequencies and amplitudes on either touch controller.

Vibration Use
Vibration has 3 properties: frequency, amplitude and oneshot.
Frequency: 1==320Hz, 2==160Hz, 3==106.7Hz, 4=80Hz  (this is the frequency of vibration)
Amplitude: 0-255 (0 stops vibration, 1-255 are the strength)

Orientation Use
Yaw: clockwise is positive
Pitch: aiming up is positive
Roll: tilting clockwise is positive
Yaw works a little different to the other two angles. Pitch and roll have definite zero angles that make sense (holding the controller level). But yaw is based on where the controller is aiming when powered on. To fix this, you can call ResetFacing(controllerNumber) to record the current direction as a Yaw of 0 degrees.
Each controller may have a different Yaw origin.

vJoy Support
Normally AutoHotKey can only generate keyboard and mouse events.
vJoy is a driver that emulates one or more virtual joysticks with configurable features. AutoOculusTouch can now send analog axis and digital button values to vJoy. This lets you use Touch (or the remote) as a gamepad in games that support DirectInput.
Note: while most of the controls match an XBox controller, it technically isn't one. Any game that uses XInput directly can't see vJoy. Only DirectInput games will work here.

To use vJoy support, you need to install the vJoy drivers. You can download them from here: http://vjoystick.sourceforge.net/site/index.php/download-a-install
If you don't want vJoy support, you don't need to install the drivers, this is an optional feature, AutoOculusTouch works like v0.1.4 without it.

Important Notes

(v0.1.2 and below)
Due to the way the Oculus SDK works, running AutoOculusTouch will make Oculus Home or Dash think that a VR application is running that isn't rendering. The original intent was for AutoOculusTouch to run when no headset is being worn, such as using the Oculus Remote for controlling a PC for media playback, so this didn't matter. Running both AutoOculusTouch and another VR application at the same time probably shouldn't work, but it currently seems to.

What does this mean? Well, Oculus Home and Dash refuse to run a VR app while another is already running. But you can still run multiple apps at once if you start them using a means besides Home or Dash (such as explorer).

(v0.1.3 and above)
The note above is no longer valid in these versions. By setting the Invisible flag when calling the oculus sdk, AutoOculusTouch no longer appears to Dash as a VR app. This means it won't make the headset show a never ending loading screen and other VR apps can be run from Dash without an error.

(v0.1.7 and above)
New ways to access buttons and triggers have been added. You no longer need to grab the full buttons state and do boolean maths on them. You also no longer need to store previous trigger values to check of crossing over a value, there's a function for that.
The old way is still available existing scripts should work the same.

Different Headset Behaviour
Different Oculus headsets behave differently when not being worn (having the face sensor triggered). This is the Oculus SDK's behaviour, not Auto Oculus Touch.
Rift CV1 - When not worn for around 18 seconds, position tracking is disabled. Rotation tracking continues, but is purely IMU based (instead of the cameras) so the yaw can drift over time.
Rift-S - When not worn for around 18 seconds, position tracking, rotation tracking and vibration is disabled. Buttons, triggers and thumbsticks keep working.
Quest 1/2 Link - When not worn for around 16 seconds, everything stops. No tracking, buttons, etc. The controllers are completely shut down.

You can trick the headset into running by placing something (like a cloth) over the face sensor (just above the lenses, in the middle). But be warned, when it is triggered, all controls will be picked up by the Home app. You may be accidentally clicking on things (like the store!). I have plans to fix this, but it means adding rendering to AOT.

Function Reference

InitOculus()
- Initialise Auto Oculus Touch, start the Oculus runtime.

InitvJoy(device)
- Start the vJoy input feeder. Device is the number of the vJoy virtual gamepad. The first gamepad is 1. Only a single vJoy controller can be used by an AOT script, but you can have multiple scripts runnings at once, each using a different vJoy controller.

Poll()
- Update the tracking state and all inputs. Poll() should be called regularly (such as 90+ times a second), otherwise all inputs stop updating.

Wearing()
- Check if the headset is being worn (face sensor).
- Returns: 0 if not worn, 1 if worn.

IsDown(button), IsPressed(button), IsReleased(button)
- Check if a button is active. Down means held down, Pressed means changed from up to down since the last Poll(), Released means changed from down to up since the last Poll().

nalex66

Nice. I had wondered about using your AHK solution for cleaning up the controls in Fallout 4 VR. The wonky way that the game interprets some inputs would likely be an issue, though. 

kojack

It would depend on how it's doing input.
If FO4VR can be keyboard controlled (I don't have FO4VR, so don't really know the issues), then you could get touch to control it. Using the capacitive sensors you could have some shift functionality to give more buttons.
But if the game has hard coded vive controls that can't be disabled, they'd be mapped to touch by steamvr. AutoOculusTouch can't stop a game from seeing touch via oculus sdk or steamvr.

nalex66

Yeah, that’s the problem—the game doesn’t recognize keyboard input (except for about 3 keys), and does some weird things that interfere with the way SteamVR interprets the Touch to Wand mapping. Clicking the Touchpad, for instance, demands a small offset from center to register, making it harder than necessary to click the stick. AutoOculusTouch might (or might not) help with remapping functions on the controller, but the game has other issues. Anyway, it’s been reasonable sorted out using OpenVR InputEmulator to clean things up.

I'm wondering if something like this can be used for the Assetto Corsa menus.

I just tested it, yep, it works.
Start AC. While in the 2d part of the game, alt tab out and start autooculustouch. Then go back to AC and enter the VR part of the game. With my default script you can move the yellow circle mouse cursor with the right touch thumbstick and click on stuff with the right trigger.

(If you start autooculustouch while AC is already in VR mode, you'll lose the VR view because oculus home gets confused. You might be able to start autooculustouch before AC, but I tried it the way above).

WreckLuse68

excellent!!

cybereality

Good stuff.

DarkTenka

Awesome! .. Thanks so much for this.

Re: Running with OH open - if you hit the system button and then hit "cancel" after a few seconds it will state "OH could not close this down, press continue to return to OH". From then on it remains in memory and works fine.

As an additional request/question (requestion? xD).

Is it possible to do the reverse, so that we can press a button on the keyboard to trigger an Oculus Touch press? or even press another Touch button/action to trigger other Touch presses (e.g. make it so if I press the trigger on left controller to trigger the Analog stick press on right controller for example?) .. could be useful for those SteamVR games that rely on the Thumb-pad press for actions which is a lot less comfortable when on an Analog Stick press.

kojack

I've got some plans for that.

This is curretly just using (abusing?) the oculus sdk, by being a vr app that doesn't render anything, it just reads the input state. To do the opposite means injecting input into the sdk, which isn't supported. However, using the same method as Revive might let me hijack the function that returns touch state. It's something I might experiment with over the next few weeks (I start christmas vaction tomorrow, until feb).
No promises though.

@KillCard Success!
Well, the very first step.
I've just managed to intercept programs asking for Touch state and replace the data with something else. Currently I'm tricking Google Earth into reversing the touch thumbsticks, so back zooms in and forward zooms out.
So at the very least, I could make a simple app that lets you (via a script) remap touch controls.

The downside is that right now you need to manually enter the process ID of the program to trick (so a DLL payload can be injected into it to bypass the oculus runtime). I'm sure I can come up with a better method, but for now it works as a basic test.

Something that would be very easy to do is swap index and grab triggers, or even swap left and right hands.

Swapping Left Grab or Left Trigger with Left Analog Press would be exactly what I'm after actually. 

Awesome work! .. I can't wait to see what comes of this.

kojack

More progress.
It can now search for oculus apps by name rather than manually entering the process id.
It's now lua scripted. Every time a program (that's been taken over) calls ovr_GetInputState, it will instead call a lua script that can access the real data, plus provide fake data. Here's an example script:

ProcessInput = function(controllerType)

This grabs the real state, then swaps the right hand index and hand triggers.
(Lua lets you do swaps like that without temps, such as a,b = b,a)

I don't like the structure of that, but it's a proof of concept.

So when I ran it in google earth, it made the index trigger rotate the world and the hand trigger drag the world.

Hmm, 6:37pm and I haven't eaten today. Break time for christmas leftovers.

The only annoying thing is that the input state structure returned by the oculus sdk has a heap of similar members, such as HandTrigger, HandTriggerNoDeadzone and HandTriggerRaw. There's no way of knowing which an app wants to look at, so you might need to do triplicate code (index, hand and thumbsticks all have 3 versions for each hand).


I'm kind of treading on Revive territory here, so hopefully Oculus aren't going to throw a fit and block me. I'm not actually using Revive in any way, but I am injecting code into oculus apps, which is how Revive works.
Avast has already gotten pissed of at my injector code, thinking it's a virus.

kojack

New progress.
Here's a little script (note: this is unrelated to autohotkey scripts, this is a lua script for a new tool I'm writing) :

require 'bit'

What this one does is read the requested controller type (for example Google Earth asks for either Touch) into state.
Then it does another read just on the oculus remote, into state2.
It then checks the remote's dpad and sets the right thumbstick of the touch to match.
So it turns the remote into a touch analog thumbstick. I can use it to zoom in and out in google earth.

I really should make a new thread for it, but I'm not quite ready for a release yet, so I'll just dump this here. More features to add before the base version.

I've done a large code refactoring of Oculus Injector, or whatever I end up calling it. I've added some new stuff to it too.

Some new features:
- time access
- keyboard access (so you can make keys trigger Touch/Remote/Xbox inputs)
- intercept tracking data!

The last one means I can mess with position and orientation data of both touch controllers and the headset.
For example, this code:

function HookGetTrackingState(time, latency)

copies the right touch orientation to the left touch, while leaving it's position alone.

Although now most of ideas for using this stuff will mean I'll have to implement a full vector/quaternion library in lua.

I'm going to try intercepting the calls to ask which controllers are present. I might be able to create fake touches or remotes.

Dude this is great news! .. I might even be able to use this to make TAS Speedruns of Oculus games. xD

New release: v0.1.3

I found a flag I've never seen before: ovrInit_Invisible
By starting the sdk using this flag, I've removed the annoying bit where auto oculus touch stops Dash from loading other VR apps at the same time. It also stops auto oculus touch from appearing as the "app not responding" grey loading screen.

I've also put some comments on the buttons enums to explain what they represent on Touch, Xbox and the Remote.

Iskarien

Thank you for creating this!

I downloaded it, but somehow I can't seem to get it to work, even though what I'd need is a very simple thing: 
I'm handicapped, and I can't use the A and B buttons with my right hand, so I wanted to map the Y button as B... Which should be as simple as
ovrY :: ovrB
ovrB :: ovrY
right?

Doesn't work, and I think I may have placed it wrong... Any clue what I'm doing wrong? Would be great if you could help me with that, I can't play most games without such a "fix" and I suck at scripting stuff

Thanks a lot

kojack

At the moment all that you can do in AutoOculusTouch is read the state of oculus controls then generate keyboard or mouse events. It's not possible to generate other oculus touch events. So you could make the Touch Y button press the keyboard B, but not the Touch B.

The other program I'm working on (mentioned a little above) called Oculus Injector can do it, but it's not ready for release yet.

Animus777

Any updates on Oculus Injector? I would like to use Oculus Touch as a mouse with non VR games. And it seems that program is my only hope.

kojack

I haven't had a chance to touch (no pun intended) it lately, but I'm planning on getting back to it soon.

Johnny1234

Did anyone get auto_oculus_touch to work with oculus remote? I can only get left/right/up/down to work, the rest of the buttons do not register ;(

; working:

    if pressed & ovrRight
        Send, {WheelUp}

;not working:

    if pressed & ovrB
        Send, {WheelDown}
       

Baronthor

Hey. Any updates on your Injector ? Im trying to use an wii balance board as an input for my vr games. All i can do with the wii balance walker program is to trigger keyboard events. So your injector would be awesome for this!

auto_oculus_touch no works with oculus 1.27 runtime:((((((((((((((((((

kojack

Sorry, I've been busy with work and haven't had much time for VR.

Yeah, looks like runtime 1.27 has broken AutoOculusTouch.

It seems the new behaviour is that ovr_GetInputState (which reads the buttons on the touch and remote) now won't work in apps that aren't rendering and have the headset on. In the past you could ask for controller state at any time, including in invisible apps and when not wearing the headset. Now, that's gone.

Without being the rendering app, all inputs are reported as zero.

If you are rendering but take the headset off, all inputs go to zero in less than a second.

There's no errors reported, it just stops giving state data.

The crazy thing is I can still get touch tracking data, the IMUs are reported via a different function that hasn't been nerfed. But no buttons or thumbsticks.

Unless I can find some hack to work around it, or Oculus made a mistake and fix it in 1.28, I have a feeling AutoOculusTouch is dead.

Edit: Ok, looks like it's not just me, other developers in c++ and unity are reporting ovr_GetInputState is broken in 1.27. So maybe this is temporary afterall. Now to play the waiting game...

kojack
Please, write to the oculus support about broken ovr_GetInputState in 1.27

That sounds awesome, can it be used to emulate a mouse? That'd be great with my rsi

Oculus updated to 1.28 but  auto_oculus_touch no works (((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((  

What a hell???

kojack

Yep, I tested as soon as I saw that 1.28 beta had come out.

I don't see any indication in the dev forums that they've found the issue.

Agterbosch said:

Yep, you can use the thumbsticks to move a mouse cursor. Or at least you used to be able to, since the project is now broken until Oculus fix a bug.

I do this:
-Stop Oculus Runtime service
