Connecting over Separate Networks

You can connect to other users in a Vizard session that are remotely located using a tool such as Radmin VPN to establish a VLAN connection. This setup will work for remote interactions with objects as well as multi-user eye tracking. Here is how it works with Radmin VPN

  1. Make sure both computers are online
  2. Download and install Radmin VPN from this site https://www.radmin-vpn.com/
  3. Once downloaded and installed you can create a new network. Just give it a name and password (you can also create new ones if you need more than one)
  4. From the other clients install Radmin VPN and choose "Join Network" then input the Network name and password
  5. You can now start the SightLabVR_server from the computer that created the network, as well as one additional client (if you choose) from this same machine. All clients can start the Client script and input the name of the machine running the server (see this page for more details) 

If you are running some of the clients on the same local network and others on the virtual network, it may be best to connect the local ones first.
