The OSVR (Open Source Virtual Reality) framework is a fully open-source framework facilitating the connection between virtual reality hardware, algorithms, and applications. I presented this talk in my role as senior software engineer at Sensics, the founding contributor of OSVR. Originally presented in CONVRGE on 19 April 2015, this talk gives a birds-eye view of the architecture of OSVR, then proceeds to a deep dive into the "path tree", semantic names, and aliases, from the perspective of the OSVR Core.
