3D Jam: Approved Hardware List

[digitalkid]

LinkIt One is super awesome - like an Arduino with built in GPS, GPRS, GSM, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth all in one!

[PaultheGreat]

What about mouse and keybaord?.

[AlexColgan]

@psixo That's a yes to Lego Mindstorms EV3!

@corky2003 Yes to Lego bricks, looking into the integrated circuit.

@digitalkid Sorry, no LinkIt One.

@PaultheGreat Certainly! Mouse and keyboard are already indicated in the rules as acceptable alternative inputs.

Hey Alex,
any news to the Zeiss VR One?

[AlexColgan]

Sorry, but we're not able to support the Zeiss VR One -- though based on reviews and specs it looks like applications built with it would work with Google Cardboard. The key difference between the two appears to be the lenses, so the only thing would be to make sure that text and other UI elements are sufficiently clear to be seen on both.

@AlexColgan: Can we use ESP8266 WiFi Module and Arduino Leonardo (almost same as Arduino Uno, though comes with an extra Serial bus allowing us to directly talk with the ESP module).

Hi! I have one question about software: is it still possible to use Oculus runtime 0.5.0.1 and Unity Core Assets v2.3.1 for 3D Jam submission?

I'm making VR game with natural locomotion, rigged hands and hand-based UI, but unfortunately runtime 0.5.0.1 is the last one which supports Optimus GPU selection on my laptop.

My full setup right now is Oculus DK2 + Leap Motion, Virtual Reality with Rigged Hands path (Oculus runtime 0.5.0.1 + Unity Core Assets v2.3.1 + Unity 5.1.2f1 on Windows 8.1, integrated VR support disabled).

Thanks!

[AlexColgan]

@Anwaarullah Still checking, stay tuned.

@Bertz Sure, if you're unable to upgrade, just make sure you include the runtime requirement (and any other requirements) on your project page.

Ok, my turn to ask for adding another hardware!

@AlexColgan: What about the pulse sensor?

[JanMueller]

Since we joined the Android SDK alpha with a LG G2, is it possible to use this setup for the Jam or do we have to make a parallel build on PC/OSX for the Jam?

[AlexColgan]

@alecz1k Sorry, no pulse sensor.

@Anwaarullah That's a yes! Added.

@JanMueller I'll see if we have a G2 in the office that we can use to judge. I should note that projects using the Android SDK aren't admissible, as we're still in private alpha.

[AlexColgan]

That's a yes to the LG G2!

[PailSwain]

I am an electronic hardware designer and working on some projects right now. I want to know something about the Raspberry Pi and Arduino projects for the 3D Jam.
Is it necessary to get all inputs and outputs approved too, or can sensors, LEDs, LCDs, motors, IR LEDs, IR Receivers assumed to be approved?

Hi, I want asking something, is possible use this harware: MinnowBoard Max.e
http://wiki.minnowboard.org/MinnowBoard_MAX

Thanks

[AlexColgan]

@PailSwain At this stage in the 3D Jam, you'll want to get approval on all inputs and outputs, as we want to ensure that we can judge all submissions.

@jrincon Rev A1 or A2? We'll look into it and get back to you!

[jrincon]

Hi AlexColgan.

I have the MinnowBoard Max Rev A2.

Thanks

Jarain 78

[AlexColgan]

Sorry, but we won't be able to support the MinnowBoard.

[jrincon]

ok thanks, I can't to participate because all my design I made of with this development board, however the I will post my design them so they can see.

Regards

Thank you
