Showcase Head gesture recognition: *nods* yes, *shakes head* no

This is a showcase for a quick test I made today to recognize "yes" and "no" head gestures.

What is the typical developer here using for this kind of input? Is it commonplace in VR these days?

I haven't tested it in VR yet but if you mount these scripts on a head Transform, it should work just fine.

It is two scripts, one for yes, one for no, hack it up or twiddle the settings however you like.

Feel free to blast followups to this thread for any other cool head-motion detection stuff you have used... I'm curious about it all!!

 

Wow, You did a really cool thing, thank you!
This is huge time-save for me!
(In VR (Oculus Quest 2) works perfectly!)

 

You're welcome! Glad it worked.

I had another thought... you could also do a "Huh?!" reaction by noticing if the player's head tilted to one side (rotated on the Z axis) and held there for perhaps half a second.
