VIVE Wrist Tracker
This lightweight and versatile VR tracker is designed to work with VIVE Focus 3. Wear it on your wrist for enhanced hand tracking, or attach it to real-world objects to track them in your virtual environment.
This lightweight and versatile VR tracker is designed to work with VIVE Focus 3. Wear it on your wrist for enhanced hand tracking, or attach it to real-world objects to track them in your virtual environment.
When a user wears a tracker on their wrist, the software can predict the tracker’s motion trajectories even when the tracker is out of the camera’s view for a short period. This means it can predict their hand position when the hand leaves the tracking camera view or when the hand is obstructed.
VIVE Wrist Tracker uses the same tracking technology as the VIVE Focus 3 Controller. LEDs are picked up directly by the VIVE Focus 3 tracking cameras to help achieve accurate 6DoF inside-out tracking. This means it’s easy to attach VIVE Wrist Tracker to real-world objects and track them with full 6DoF.
For those who need to track smaller objects, you can attach a small 3DoF sensor to an object like a screwdriver or scalpel. VIVE Wrist Tracker enables tracking hand-held objects easier by combining the rotation data of the 3DoF sensor with the positional data provided by VIVE Wrist Tracker to deliver a complete 6DoF experience.
With VIVE Wrist Tracker, the Focus 3 cameras can track from the hand to the elbow to enable better hand-free tracking and natural movement of your avatar's upper body. This is accomplished by integrating a specific IK solver.
High-frequency IMU data and an advanced kinematic model can predict the VIVE Wrist Tracker’s motion trajectories even when it's out of the camera’s view for a short period of time.
VIVE Wrist Tracker is 85% smaller than a VIVE Focus 3 controller, and 50% lighter at just 63g. The device delivers up to four hours of constant use, with an LED indicator to show you the battery status, and is charged via USB-C connector.
