Creating a map without VIVE Manager

You can create a virtual map of your play area by using only the primary headset.

Note:

Before creating a map, make sure to clear the tracking map on the headset. You can use VBC or VADMS to clear the map.

Take the headset to the center of the first section of the play area.
Hold the headset at shoulder level and face forward. The headset will wake from standby and start scanning.
Rotate 360° in a single, continuous motion for 5 seconds. Keep the headset stationary while turning.
Rotate 360° again, but this time, tilt the headset up and down while turning. Do this for 9 seconds.
Walk the perimeter of the section at a normal pace to trace the section boundary. Keep the headset stationary while walking.
Move to the next section you want to scan and repeat the process.
When you've finished scanning every section, press and hold the headset button to power off the headset. The virtual map will be saved to the device automatically.
Note:
If scanning is interrupted (for example, if the headset enters standby mode or powers off), you'll need to reconnect the headset to your PC and clear the tracking map before scanning the play area again.
