ℹ️ Adding the needed packages to your unity project.

The following items are needed to run EDIA experiments.

• The EDIA Core package
• The EDIA UXF fork package
• Unity packages for XR related functionalities:
  • Unity XR Interaction Toolkit
  • Unity XR Hands

Here is a step by step guide how to set this up. If things are unclear, feel free to post a question on the EDIA GitHub Discussions board.

🔢 Install the required packages

1. Open your fresh Unity project.

2. Open the Package Manager panel.

3. Click the + > Install package from git URL

   

4. Enter one of the following to install

   • Latest release: https://github.com/edia-toolbox/edia_core.git?path=Assets/com.edia.core#main
   • Specific release (replace vX.Y.Z with a version from the release list): https://github.com/edia-toolbox/edia_core.git#vX.Y.Z
   • Development version: https://github.com/edia-toolbox/edia_core.git?path=Assets/com.edia.core

5. This will automatically install the following dependencies:

   1. Unity XR Interaction Toolkit
   2. Unity XR Hands

6. ⚠️ There will be errors in your Console. Don’t worry, these will be fixed with the next steps.

7. Next, we add the EDIA.UXF Fork package:

   → Enter https://github.com/edia-toolbox/edia_uxf.git

8. Now, we need to install a few Samples from these packages. To do so, in the Package Manager, go to

   1. XR Hands → Samples tab
      • Hand Visualizer → Import
   2. XR Interaction Toolkit → Samples tab
      • Starter Assets→ Import
      • Hands Interaction Demo → Import

9. If Unity pops up the Project Validation window, you can safely press Fix All and hope for the best. 😉
