vive-controls

Note: This documentation is for the old 1.4.0 version of A-Frame. Check out the documentation for the current 1.6.0 version

The vive-controls component interfaces with the HTC Vive controllers/wands. It wraps the tracked-controls component while adding button mappings, events, and a Vive controller model that highlights the pressed buttons (trigger, grip, menu, system) and trackpad.

Example

<a-entity vive-controls="hand: left"></a-entity>
<a-entity vive-controls="hand: right"></a-entity>
