Notes on Unity Animation

This wasn’t a bad starting point : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPgS6RsLIjk It’s important to remember, when you’ve created a sprite, that you need to add a SpriteSkin.

Exploring an API for generating custom VR headset designs

Another target I’d like to accomplish is to provide an api for generating custom parameterised EyeTracktive pupil tracking headsets.

First of all, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to Holger Hahn and Andreas Freund, who have both donated to the project (https://www.paypal.com/pools/c/8byPUuuQ1D).  I’m utterly blown away.…
