I don't own a Pico 4, unfortunately, so I can't advise on what modifications would be needed to make this series compatible with the headset.

AFAIK, the models you can run on Unity Sentis are somewhat limited. It's designed to work on-device within your Unity app, so it's best suited for smaller, optimized models. You need to consider the capabilities of your target platform. You can use models exported to the ONNX format, but more complex models might not run efficiently.

@@LudicWorlds I wanted to put in a TTS model specialized for Korean and wondered if it was possible! thank you!

Good point! However, I've not looked into that yet - this video represents a first step in getting Whisper working. I do intend to improve upon this (I'd also like it to detect and process audio without the need to press any buttons). Will add to my todo list!

Thanks! :) working on a video explaining how this is achieved (I will also make the code available).

looking forward to seeing this

@@andru5054 I've made a video explaining how this works here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o4DSpKmfapmqm5I You can download the Unity project from here: www.patreon.com/posts/project-source-107788463

Yes, I've not encountered any issues with Vulcan for sometime, and it tends to perform better than OpenGL ES.

Me too

If it's important to have the player gradually move to the chair (rather than teleport), make sure you move the 'XR Origin' (and not the camera directly). I would keep the movement slow and steady to minimize discomfort to the player.

Thank you! Sorry for the delay in replying, I have been away for the last couple of weeks. Did you manage to solve this? I would expect that aligning your scene relative to a previously saved anchor, should indeed work (I should probably do a tutorial specifically on the new Persistence Anchor system).

@@LudicWorlds That would be great. Keep going with the tutorials. your subs count will start rising as this tech rolls out to the public more with better and more affordable devices. Im still trying to get my head around Unity and all the different packages for just Quest 3 or cross platform. Something I would really appreciate is a tutorial on taking parts of demo/example scenes and using parts of them in my own development. I've been constantly hit with errors but I realise it just takes time to understand the unity system.

@@LudicWorlds have you considered doing a live stream ??? where you could one to one with users. It may be useful to gauge what your viewers need help with to get them over some technical hurdles. even if you may only want to do this with Patreon subs perhaps?

Thank you for the feedback. I think I may need to update this tutorial series soon, as so much has changed in XR interaction Toolkit Version 3.

The 'Settings' folder in 'Assets' typically contains various project-specific settings files. In this project, these files define Graphics Settings (i.e., configuring the Render Pipeline). However, it could also contain Audio Settings, Build Settings, etc.

@@LudicWorlds Hi, thank you for your reply. Your video tutorials are so helpful! I still am a little confused because I do not have this settings folder within my assets like you show in your video, and because of that I am unable to apply the URP balanced renderer asset to the scriptable render pipeline setting like you show at 10:17. Let me know if you know why this could be happening and thank you again!

@@LudicWorlds same here. no settings in assets folder. any ideas ?

The Quest 2 uses a tile-based rendering architecture, which makes full-screen render passes, such as those required for post-processing effects like "Bloom", quite expensive. While you can use post-processing effects if they are crucial for your app, it's important to be mindful of the potential performance impact.

@@LudicWorlds ok thanks, there is any difference with quest 3?

The Quest 3's GPU also uses tile-based rendering, so you still need to keep that in mind.

After downgrading to 6000.0.5 it works again in case someone encounter the same issue

Strange, I upgraded to Unity 6 (6000.0.7) but wasn't able to replicate this. Was it happening in a particular scene?

That's great! Looks like there was a problem with the project's manifest file. Unity has recently pushed a fix to the GitHub repo: "Update manifest.json to include new Newtonsoft package dependency". github.com/Unity-Technologies/arfoundation-samples/commit/23b6685bfa42523849b4c4aa45bdaf337fdb1137

i thinks yes

Thank you, I am glad you are enjoying my videos! :) It's been quite some time since I've looked at Inworld, so I don't know how to fix this in the current version. However, I've noticed that Inworld are now releasing 'Getting Started' tutorials on their KZbin channel. Maybe this Unity series can help? kzbin.info/www/bejne/foPQhYR8ZaiKbbM

Thank you, so glad they have been useful in your project! :) The concepts are indeed very similar, they have just been implemented in a different way. I would say that the 'XR Interaction Toolkit' makes it easier to port your project to different platforms. However, the 'Meta SDK' will give you the tightest integration with the Quest 3, and access to the latest features (so I would recommend it if you want to develop solely for the Quest).

Thanks for the suggestion! My recent 'Mixed Reality' tutorial series also uses XRI, and I am currently extending this with some tutorials that use XRI 3. I plan, however, to cover XRI 3 more generally in the near future (particularly since the API/Components have changed significantly).

Yes, Passthrough certainly works on the Oculus 2. However, it will be monochrome and low resolution.
