Object Proximity #
Description #
A trigger event that loads the desired timeline(s) when the two defined objects are within a specified distance of each other. As a trigger event, this action will not affect the experience until the 2 objects are within the threshold distance of one another.
Once initiated, this action will remain active until the timeline ends or until the 2 objects are within the specified distance.
This trigger is most commonly used as a way to verify that a virtual object has been placed in the correct/desired location.
Properties #
Start Time
The time (in seconds) when the action will activate.
The Start Time is relative to the timeline in which the action occurs (not the absolute time from when the experience starts).
Distance Threshold (meters)
The maximum distance (in meters) between the 2 defined objects that will trigger the timeline load.
I.e. the trigger will be activated once the distance between the two defined objects is equal to or less than the distance threshold.
The distance is measured as the minimum distance between the bounding boxes of the 2 objects.
Timelines to Load
The timeline(s) that will be loaded.
Object 1 & 2
The 2 objects whose distance between one another will be used for the trigger.
Type: the type of object to be used. Options are Model, Group, Branch, or Volume
Once the Type is defined, use the Start Selection button to select the specific object from the Workspace
