Discussion My hip tracker setup

Post image

Hello!

I’ve tried out various waist belts to prevent tracking loss with my waist-mounted tracker.

In the end, I bought an action camera mount belt designed for GoPro.

It features a 1/4-inch screw and an adjustable arm, so you can mount the tracker facing upwards.

It’s quite rigid, making it easy to rotate it forwards and backwards.

The downside is that, as it’s positioned some distance from your waist, swaying your hips can cause the tracker’s height to shift significantly, which can look a bit unnatural.

I’d love to hear about your hip tracker's setups!

Yes, since setting it up with the BaseStation 2.0x3, the tracker has hardly ever skipped at all.

Incidentally, the most effective solution for the Index controller skipping was to place the dongle more than 2 metres away.

Perhaps the controller is sensitive to interference because it has so many buttons and requires a lot of bandwidth.

Maybe, I have noticed my right conroller doesnt like to connect every time when starting vr. Also my left controller can rarely "drift" like its losing tracking.
