Add Oculus Quest Support for MRTK

[julenka]

Overview

Oculus Quest is a great wireless VR experience that has potential to be adopted en masse by consumers. It would be great if MRTK could support this platform, to enable developers to build applications that can reach a broad audience.

Expected Behavior

Oculus would be supported either through the OpenVR data provider. Since Oculus Quest is an Android platform, the MRTK project needs to compile and deploy for Android. Finally, we need to add a controller mapping and type for the oculus quest controllers to appropriately map the inputs. We may actually be able to re-use the oculus touch controller mapping.

SO to be clear from a deployment approach. The Oculus devices will support OpenVR for sideloading, as such the MRTK (WIth the Android / OpenVR controller support) should support this out of the box.

However, in order to publish to the Oculus store, the MRTK will also require native Oculus support with the Oculus APIs in an extension.

@julenka Support for Oculus Quest would be awesome. Is there an estimated time when this will be added into mrtk?

[julenka]

Hi, at this time we don't have an estimate for when our FTEs will get to it, our team is currently focusing on increasing quality of existing features before tackling new ones. However, community contribution would be very welcome here! I'd be happy to take a look at any PR adding Oculus Quest support.

Early version of Oculus Quest support for MRTK created by contributor tattichan from HoloLab twitter and github repo.

No ETA yet on official support from Microsoft, referring to @wiwei and @chbecker-ms who can provide info about official support.

XRTK is currently in the process of publishing it's native Oculus support (Rift / Quest) which is what tattichan work is based on. Once it's got past the extension review process, it should land fairly quickly after that.

[wiwei]

Keeping the discussion focused to what's being worked on this repo - we're currently acquiring some devices and looking to schedule time in our upcoming iteration to add this support.

Hand tracking is coming to oculus Quest early 2020!

Would be awesome to use MRTK hand tracking on Quest and HoloLens 2!

Is there any overall status update on MRTK Quest support?
