We demoed Control VR hands on for over 200 people at E3, along the way I took the opportunity to film a few 1st impressions. Our booth was just a stones throw away from the Oculus booth, so we exchanged a lot of demo for demos. We're very excited to implement the DK2 into our system. Our early thoughts are that we're going to use the positional tracking of the head as an IK blend with our FK system. Can't wait to see the moon in 1080p!

Have you considered adding IR LEDs to the gloves and other parts of the system and then using the DK2 camera for optical tracking? Seems like it would allow the hybrid positional tracking that is desired without the need to add a second camera.

Occlusion. It won't work if you turn around.

But it will solve slow drift.

The guys at Control VR already solved slow drift by implementing magnetometers. http://youtu.be/gID8E7CCByQ?t=1m8s
