Summary: ChimeraX bug report submission → VR initialization failure

comment:2 by Tom Goddard, 5 years ago

I just tested ChimeraX 1.1 on Windows 10 with the current SteamVR 1.15.16 from Steam with an Oculus Rift. It all worked fine. So the problem is something specific to your computer and VR setup.

The error message means the Python OpenVR library can't start. You could get a more detailed error message using menu Tools / General / Shell. Then type "import openvr" in the window that appears. You can then use menu Help / Report a Bug to send me the traceback -- maybe it will give a clue what is going wrong.

So you can start some game in SteamVR and it works? Or at least move around in the SteamVR lobby? And the SteamVR status window displays with the headset, hand controllers, and base stations all green, ie shown as working correctly? If all that is the case I am not sure what to suggest. Make sure your SteamVR version is up to date.

Ok Tom, thank you! I will check my hardware and will let you know if the
problem gets resolved.

Tom, thanks for your answer, I finally was able to use ChimeraX with Oculus
Rift and it's absolutely amazing!. (I may have issues with some USB
contacts in my notebook, don't know really).
My first concern is about DICOM images, as we produce Biomodels (VR, AR and
3D printed). I've been playing with ChimeraX Volume Viewer and Oculus. I
found a lot of advantages to accelerate and improve our workflow for VR
Biomodels and online demonstrations, I'd like to share:
-We can enter a VR environment immediately, no need of complex segmentation
and post processing. This is really fast! and allows us to face emergency
cases (usually our job can't face emergencies).
-We can directly measure in 3D and see those measures in real time.
-Doctors can have a much more realistic sense of the problem, in a much
faster way, and relate it to different tissue densities.
-Working in VR over original dicom images, many dimensional errors are
avoided (any segmentation process implies dimensional errors).
-Also, interpretation errors (biomodelist's most important problems) are
avoided, as doctors can see the study in VR by themselves, over an
unaltered set of dicom images.
So I think ChimeraX VR capabilities are a complete game changer for doctors
and surgeons.

Beside, I have some questions:
I created a .txt to load a *buttonpanel *having Volume Appearances Presets
(file attached). It works really fine, but I noticed some issues:
*Black & White* does not work
*Glossy II and Glossy* have all points over an horizontal line
*High Contrast and Low Contrast* have no difference (and have all points
over an horizontal line)
*Pencil *does not work
*Soft Skin II and Soft Skin III* are the same
*Soft on Blue and Soft on White* have no difference (and all points over an
horizontal line)
Appearances Presets look pretty different in ChimeraX compared to other
Dicom Viewer software, can it be improved?
We use *Invesalius*, an open source brazilian software, as our
mainstream workflow to produce  volumetric renderings and .stl  or .obj
surfaces from dicom images. Unfortunately, it has no real time VR or AR
tools. But is really good in Volumetric Rendering and segmentation of
surfaces based in *Hounsfield *scale thresholds. So I wonder if some kind
of knowledge-interchange may be useful for both developments? Please let me
know if you think so.

Thanks again!
