Has anyone developed virtual reality programs for HMD's ? Could you give some advice or a link?

I plan to make very simple 3D-scenes
(3d-cone or starfield) with OpenGL. How can I display such a scene on a HMD? Is there a special function or programm? Does just the driver make the HMD-output?

Maybe you can give me an outline of coding a simple OpenGl-object an displaying it at a HMD.

Many thanks for the help.

No need to do this. It is more easy to use existing VR software and just simply add HMD support .
You can get some inspiration from my scientific code for VFX3D HMD:

Actually I would prefer using a selfmade solution. What existing VR Software makes sense?
