    This is my first time posting in these forums and I am not sure if this is the right place to post this but here we go:

    Navi is an app written in Unity that you download onto your smartphone that converts it into a controller for virtual reality applications. Using your Android smart phone or tablet, you can use rotation and touch input to interact with the virtual reality environment. Download the app at:

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.navi.io

    I am open sourcing the code to create a community around this input solution and I would love to get feedback and contributions from this community. Here is a link to the github repo:

    https://github.com/vmohan7/Navi

    The README has a small walkthrough on how to get started as well as links to demos that I have created. Check out the demos to see how to use it. I am also going to be putting up a short video in the next few days to showcase how it works.

    Yeah, another person mentioned that in the Google Group. Basically, we are going to need to put compiler flags around the Project Tango code. I was planning on looking at that tonight (PST)
