Interhaptics XR SDK (Meta Quest)

Step 1: Setting up the Interhaptics Core SDK​

The Interhaptics Core SDK can be installed via the Unity Package Manager as described in the documentation.

Step 2: Adding GameObjects for Custom Haptics​

  • Create an empty GameObject for the HapticManager, which can be set to be persistent if desired.
  • Add HapticBodyPart components to the XR Rig, one for each controller. Set the Body Part to Hand and the correct orientation.
  • Create a normal GameObject, such as a cube, to act as a trigger for haptic feedback.
  • Add a SpatialHapticSource component to the trigger GameObject, where offsets for Haptic Effect can be set (e.g. a 2-second delay for vibrations).

  • Custom haptic effects can also be imported and used, created with the Haptic Composer.

Step 4: Testing​

  • Press play in Unity and touch the collider to trigger haptic feedback.
