ubii-web-target-publisher – Work in progress

Ubi-Interact target publisher for web browsers. The target publisher can be used to send tracked user pose data. This is a necessary step in physical embodiment scenarios, where users are represented virtually through a physical avatar.

Usage

Ubii-web-target-publisher can be used either as a standalone demo or as a node module in Your own applications.

To receive the published targets, another Ubi-Interact component is required. ubii-web-ik-force-computation simplifies this process and processing tasks using abstractions similar to the ones in this module.

Prerequisites

This project communicates with a Ubi-Interact master node. Even though some of the functionality can be tested without it, it is recommended to have one.

Online Demo

The demo in this project is available at https://goldst.dev/ubii-web-target-publisher/.

Running the demo locally

After cloning, install, and run the project:

npm install
npm start

Your terminal will contain the demo URL, e.g. http://localhost:8080. Note that the command starts a development server which is not suitable for production environments.

Using this project as a node module

To your existing node project, add the module:

npm i ubii-web-target-publisher

You can either initialize the publisher in HTML using the bundled version:

<script src=".node_modules/ubii-web-target-publisher/dist/bundle.js"></script>

<script>
    new UbiiWebTargetPublisher.Publisher(options);
</script>

Or you can import it directly in your JavaScript/TypeScript project:

import { Publisher } from 'ubii-web-target-publisher';

new Publisher(options);

For available options, see PublisherOptions.ts.

That's it! Other than supplying the options, no further configuration is necessary. If You want to stop the publisher, just call stop() on the publisher object.
