I suppose this should ideally be implemented as a custom device rather than an ICE node, but trying to get that mess working without having an Oculus to play with would likely prove to be a lesson in frustration.
No idea if this works, but technically it should. http://www.mayulive.com/riftDevice.dll Place it in a simulated ice tree, plug the rotation into whatever and hit play to make it update constantly. It just occurred to me that userdata allocated in BeginEvaluate is recreated for every update, which means I am initializing the oculus every single frame instead of just grabbing the orientation. So ... enjoy your latency for now, if it even works.
