OpenVR Support

[MBrandt-NASA]

Hi,

Thanks for creating this amazing open 3D library with really useful point cloud support!!

It would be fantastic if OpenVR support could be added to be able to visualize Open3D output (especially point clouds) in VR. OpenVR (by ValveSoftware) is free and BSD licensed.

It's here:

Should your architecture allow integration with OpenVR?

Thanks for any thoughts about this.

Hi @MBrandt-NASA OpenVR seems very interesting. We have other priorities for now, but we will consider OpenVR for the future.

Exciting to see this VR feature added as a milestone! Very cool would be Python support (like the PyOpenVR mentioned above). Tho' C++ is nice, for me it's the Python point cloud support of Open3D that is especially useful!!

Valve is transitioning OpenVR to the Khronos standard OpenXR.
