Detect the device to change camera

[juanmajr93]

Hi all,

I want change between differents camera depends on the devices. I am developing an aplicaton web in BabylonJS and I must to define FPSCamera and TouchCamera. When this web is loaded at mobile device I have to activate the touch camera and if I visit it from pc I use FPSCamera. Do you know the way to manage it?

 

Thanks!

Hello,

Use our UniversalCamera. It works on touch on mobile, with a gamepad on Xbox/PC and using keyboard/mouse on a PC: http://doc.babylonjs.com/tutorials/Cameras . All our demos on http://www.babylonjs.com are using it now. For instance, Retail: http://www.babylonjs.com/demos/retail works on touch on iPhone/Android, keyboard & mouse on PC/Mac and gamepad on Xbox One. 

You then have nothing else to do. Isn't that cool?

Hi all,

@davrous

I have tested UniversalCamera and TouchCamera with hand.js file imported. Well, both show me the same behaviour like freeCamera on PC. However the problems appear when I use an iPad to visit my application web. I cant move fast arround scene and I cant turn camera in X edge so i only move foward and back but I cant change direcction to move up or down...     

this is my code:

var camera = new BABYLON.UniversalCamera("freeCam", new BABYLON.Vector3(600, 200, -500), scene);
camera.setTarget(new BABYLON.Vector3(0,0,0));
camera.checkCollisions = true;
camera.ellipsoid = new BABYLON.Vector3(2, 3, 2);
camera.attachControl(canvas);

I hope your answers, thanks.

@juanmajr93 have you tried camera.speed?

hi @hunts yes I have changed speed of camera but I dont resolve problems in mobile device. Do you test this type of camera in iPad or others, I can only turn camera but I cant move arround scene. Do you know the reason? I have imported BabylonJS file from this source:
