iPad as DCS kneeboard in SteamVR

[winghunter]

I dont like to use the mouse or keyboard in VR. So i use my ipad with fingers and stylus instead.

There are mutliple apps that allow you to mirror your iPad/iPhone on PC via airplay. I'm using LonelyScreen which has an ulimited trial period.

Android users can use Microsofts phone app with windows 10/11

Then simply add the LonelyScreen desktop window in steamVR and attach to your controller or in a specific position.

 

Next step: attaching my useless VR controller to my ipad, so when i move my ipad the movement is synched in game. The nice thing is that when the controller isnt moved, steamvr fades the kneeboard out of view automatically.
