A background service that manages multiple PSMove Controllers and PS3 Eye Cameras. Clients connect to the service and stream PSMove Controller state (position, orientation and button presses). Also included are a visual client front-end for controller/tracker configuration as well as a plugin for SteamVR. The FAQ is a good starting point for any specific questions you may have about the project.
NOTE This is alpha software still heavily in development. If you are downloading this project to play games on SteamVR please be aware that this tool may not work for the game you want to play so buyer beware. That said, if you are feeling brave and want to test this we appriciate the feedback about what works and what doesn't.
You can download prebuilt releases (Windows only at the moment) from the Releases page. Then follow the initial setup instructions found in the wiki. If you run into problems take a look at the Troubleshooting Page first. If that doesn't help you fix your issue, look at the issues page to see if anyone else has the same problem. If not, feel free to post a new issue.
If you want to make modifications to the service or want to debug it, you can build the project from source by following the Building-from-source instructions. Currently supported build platforms are Win10 and OS X with Linux support hopefully coming in the near future.
#Getting Help Please start with the wiki. If you can't find help with your problem then please search through the issues (especially the closed ones) to see if your problem has been addressed already. If you still find no previous mention of your problem then you have one of two options:
A) Join us in the the PSMoveService Google Group to ask your question. There are several people there who have experience debugging problems with the PSMoveService.
B) If your problem actually is a new bug and you have files to attach (logs, pictures, etc) then go ahead and create a new issue. That said, it's probably best to start with the Google Group first anyway since we can help add context before posting an issue.
The OpenVR driver is technically unsupported. For issues related to OpenVR, calibration, third party applications, specific games, etc., please post in the Google Group first.
