Recenter Player in OpenVR Unity

Unity Engine

The editor and packages in use:
Unity 2021.3.2f1
OpenVR XR Plugin 1.1.4 - Valve Corporation
OpenXR Plugin 1.5.1 - Unity Technologies
XR Interaction Toolkit 2.1.1 - Unity Technologies
XR Plugin Management 4.2.1 - Unity Technologies

I am developing a research project for my college. I have been asked to use HTC Vive Pro Eye headset (with standing trackers and controllers) as the VR device. Everything has been fairly straightforward with the development except for one issue.

In the SteamVR application (SteamVR 1.24.6), there is an option on the dashboard (accessed using the System button on the Vive Controllers. The option is called “Recenter” and does exactly what I need for this research project, which is to move the player back to the center of the scene without them moving in real space.

I have tried a few methods listed in the forums here and on YouTube.

First attempt: (Todd Wassen miracle solution)

Valve.VR.OpenVR.System.ResetSeatedZeroPose();

Valve.VR.OpenVR.Compositor.SetTrackingSpace(Valve.VR.ETrackingUniverseOrigin.TrackingUniverseStanding);

Second attempt: (Move transform manually)

XRRig.transform.position = new Vector3(0, XRRig.transform.position.y, 0);

Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Take a read through the documentation, might have the answer here under Public Methods, TryRecenter. If it’s not this one then there might be another feature under UnityEngine.XR
