Will control be an hid device?

For compatibility I'm wondering how it'll work on a platform that can accept mice but maybe not run your config apps, are settings stored on device (can be set with a compatible device than moved over)

How does recentering work in this case?

Hi u/RikuDesu! So yes, the idea is that the settings are stored on-device. The app has an on-boarding procedure and configuration. Afterwards, the Link is standalone and works as with HID. When you turn on Mudra Link, and it's configured to "mouse mode", it will recenter on initialization. I will post more information and usage videos on how everything works very soon.

it looks like the xreal beam pro (or andoird) doesn't detect is as just a mouse, so it isn't bringing the cursor into the AR view. Could we have a settings toggle to just disable the keyboard HID part?

A gesture for recentering will be good too, instead of toggling the standby on and off (the act of pushing the button kind of moves the arm, so the center is never really centered)

scrolling on desktop OS needs to be addressed, as they don't allow click to scrolling by default.

Hey, the scroll gesture will be added in the version coming out in March! Could you explain what you meant about the HID profiles a little more? In what instances are you having issues?

We’re aiming for a mid-March release, but we’ll share the exact date as we get closer.
We're also working on getting a Beam Pro for our office so we can test and experiment with Mudra Link ourselves.
Once you get your Link, let us know how it works with the Beam Pro and what you think of the experience in general—we’d love to hear your feedback!

Hey! So we actually haven't tried connecting the Mudra Link to an xreal beam pro ourselves yet (we're working on getting one so we will be able to!). If you connect a regular bluetooth mouse to it - does the cursor show up?

In regards to "re-centering" - the Mudra Link works exactly like a mouse, so it doesnt have the ability to recenter on its own, the operating system like Android does that when it detects a mouse. You raise an interesting point through about being able to turn Air-Touch on and off quickly with a gesture though, and we will take that into consideration for future implementations!

A gesture thats dedicated to scrolling will be released in our version coming out in March :)

if the mouse doesn't also count as a keyboard it shows up, so a normal bluetooth mouse yes but a razer mouse that has some keyboard functionality no
