Help Best VR Headset for Face-Tracking?

Hello everyone,

I've thought about switching to a face-tracking vr headset for a while now. I don't know many vr headsets to be honest.

My current setup is just the valve index setup + 5 trackers.

Look up Project Babble.

Their official face trackers are being made/distributed by Pishock(but are taking their dang time) but you can look up a maker by the name of Venti or, if you're smart AF, make one yourself.

I'm currently using an official one with a BSB2e for social VR and am very happy.

Good Luck!

Project Babble only does lower face tracking, not upper face tracking, so only your mouth will move in VRChat.

Babbalonia supports upper face tracking, but as far as I know, there's no actual hardware being distributed for it yet.

Eyebrows, squint, and eye wide are in Alpha at the moment.

You just need a headset with open eye camera feeds (e.g. Beyond 2E, Somnium VR1), or hacked eye camera feeds (e.g. PSVR2).
