Each tracker monitors its own rotation in space, and SlimeVR software uses your proportions and headset location to calculate joint angles and estimate limb positions. Taking the Lower-body set as an example, five trackers-one on each thigh, another on each ankle, and a fifth at the waist-are enough to get the job done. it makes full-body tracking comfortable and affordable by leveraging high-quality inertial measurement unit (IMU) sensors and a Wi-Fi connection to your PC rather than wires, cameras, or base stations. SlimeVR FBT provides simple, effective tracking of your body and limbs in VR games and other applications. With no base station required, SlimeVR makes wireless VR FBT affordable and comfortable.
SlimeVR is a set of open hardware sensors and open source software that facilitates full-body tracking (FBT) in virtual reality.
