Interactors and Interactables

Abstract

In the previous chapter we connected a VRTK 1D Axis Action component to the right trigger button of our touch controller. Unlike buttons, triggers communicate a continuum of data to our programs. However, many times the extra information conveyed through a range of float values is not only unnecessary for a VR application, but also unhelpful. Fortunately, VRTK offers a component to convert a trigger event from a collection of float values to a single boolean value of either on or off.
