> Vive vs Rift? I heard the Vive Pro is coming out
I had the same dilemma two weeks ago for a client. I went for the cheaper Oculus (+ extra sensor for better tracking). I will wait for HTC Vive Pro (already have a regular Vive, though, and I find it superior to the Rift)
>there will always be users out there attempting to run your software on the bare minimum (or less) hardware
Solid advice. I develop professionally and bought a GTX 970 rather than the 10xx versions because of this.
Some gotchas:
It's not GLUT based, but I did create a single-file example for writing a VR app using OpenGL and GLFW/GLEW here.
And a book although it uses the 0.5 SDK, so it's a little outdated if you're working on PC.
Depending on the headset you should be able to capture from the onboard camera(s). There should be different API options for accessing the equipment.
If not something like this 180 deg fisheye camera should work if you have a spare USB port on the headset you plug into. Or you can route a USB cable along with the HMD cable. (this is the camera I'm experimenting with for OpenCV)
