Objective: Install XR Interaction Toolkit

To get started with using the headset and controllers the project will need the XR Interaction Toolkit. To get this go to Window →Package Manager → Make sure getting from Packages: Unity Registry → XR Interaction Toolkit.

It’ll ask to switch to the New Input System. Click yes.

It’ll ask to make sure you have your projected backed up. If this is a new project don’t worry about it and just Go Ahead!

Unity will restart and once it comes back the interaction toolkit will be installed. We can tell due to the XRI being in the Project files.

To see a sample demo given by Unity, go back to Package Manager and to the XR Interaction Toolkit, select it. With it select there is a samples tap. Under that Tap there is a Starter Assets, Import it.

That’ll give a lot of presets that are already filled out and can use.

There is a Demo Scene that shows some teleporting and teleportation anchors. It also has some grab and poke features we can use.

Thank you for reading!
