VRPN (Virtual-Reality Peripheral Network) is a device-independent, network-based interface for accessing virtual reality peripherals in VR applications. It was originally designed and implemented by Russell M. Taylor II at the Department of Computer Science of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. VRPN was maintained and supported by Sensics[1] while it was business. It is currently maintained by ReliaSolve and developed in collaboration with a productive community of contributors. It is described more fully at vrpn.org and in VRPN-VRST.[2]

Drivers are your first task. Make it through them and you'll have proved yourself a worthy opponent. Download the iOS or Android app for your iOS or Android smart device. The RoboRemote™ will ONLY work with an iOS or Android device. Please ensure that the volume is turned up all the way on your device for proper functioning. Plug the remote into the headphone jack of your device and start the app. Make sure your WowWee® robot is on. Wowwee driver download for windows 10 32-bit.

The purpose of VRPN is to provide a unified interface to input devices, like motion trackers or joystick controllers. It also provides the following:

  • Time-stamping of data
  • Multiple simultaneous access to peripheral devices
  • Automatic re-connection of failed servers
  • Storage and playback of sessions

The VRPN system consists of programming interfaces for both the client application and the hardware drivers and a server application that communicates with the hardware devices. The client interfaces are written in C++ but has been wrapped in C#, Python and Java.

A typical application of VRPN is to encode and send 6DoFmotion capture data through the network in real time.

Networking[edit]

A VRPN client can establish a connection with a VRPN server (the device providing the data) in two ways: either over TCP (reliable, but less efficient), or over UDP (unreliable, but lower-latency and more efficient). The 'unreliable' mode is generally preferred when the latency is critical.

Engineering

The 'unreliable' connection initialization sequence makes use of both the TCP and UDP protocols. It works as follows:[3]

  1. the client opens a TCP socket for listening on an arbitrary port;
  2. the client sends the port number of this socket, along with its own machine name, in a UDP datagram directed to a well known port of the VRPN server (the default is 3883);
  3. the server opens a TCP connection with the client, to the port number communicated at step 2;
  4. if the TCP connection is established, each device tells to the other the supported VRPN version;
  5. if the versions are not compatible, the connection is dropped;
  6. otherwise, each device begins to listen on a new UDP port (different from those used before) and sends the port number to the other device, by using the previously created TCP connection;
  7. from now on, all the data is sent over the two UDP ports opened at step 6.

The advantages of this approach are: fast connection time and fast failure detection during connection.

However, the 'unreliable' connection initialization protocol does not honor the strict layering protocol design principle, as the application-level VRPN payload leaks information about lower levels in the network stack, namely the machine names and TCP/UDP port numbers. Because of this design choice, it is impossible to establish a VRPN connection between two devices connected through a NAT: the router would need to translate not only the layer-3 information in the packet headers, but also the references to IP addresses and port numbers inside the VRPN payload.

To deal with this problem, VRPN offers[4] a second 'reliable', TCP-only connection initialization mode, which is a standard TCP server-client interaction: the VRPN server listens on a well-known TCP port and the client initiates a connection. In this mode, all the data is sent on the same TCP connection, and no UDP communication is required.

Supported Devices[edit]

Trackers (listed alphabetically)[edit]

  • 3rdTech HiBall-3000 Wide Area Tracker (formerly the UNC Ceiling tracker).
  • ART optical tracking systems, including Flystick2 and Flystick3. The receiving code is part of the standard source distribution.
