I'm working on a cross-reality project that collects data from a wireless
sensor network (running the TinyOS
environment) & presents it to an opensim server such that the data may affect
the state of the simulation (e.g. a light
turning on in the real world is detected by a sensor & causes a light in the
simulation to also turn on).
Can anybody link me to any information on what available interfaces there are
for presenting the sensor data to opensim?
I've been googling but can't seem to come up with a suitable search string to
return what I'm actually looking for! I
presume there must be several opensim interfaces in a few different languages?
As the other responses have indicated, I don't think there's yet a a ready-baked solution for this but rather a number
of different approaches which each have their pros and cons (using llHTTPResponse, communicating via script with a
backend region module via modSendCommand(), adding new OSSL functions).
I'll also add the approach of using a region module to directly create/move/delete scene objects without any LSL/OSSL
scripting. This has both disadvantages (can't be transferred to SL, written in C#, poor OpenSim internals/module
documentation) but also advantages (no need to shuttle state between scripts and a backend module, no need to
co-ordinate scripts running on multiple threads, direct access to all OpenSim functionality, easier automated testing, etc.)
