You got it. But doesn’t demonstrate that vive/rift maybe didn’t need to reinvent the wheel? Lol
I also had an idea on why not mount the ir camera(s) on the hmd. Might even be an idea to reverse the ping pong ball setup n mount a single ps3 eyecam on hmd.
Yes my point with Note4 was able already before CV1 was released so question what they got with dual display?
Yes basically 150$ is high but acceptible price. With such price I will not maybe think about alternative but 200 is too much and as before now with 200 is more matter of principle than tha 50$ diference.
On that video is basicly freetrack and alternative for also overpriced TrackIR. I was made several IR clip and remove IR filters from PS3 Eye and for fev bucks I got exactly same results as people with trackIR and save 150$.
Simmilar could goes to Nolo vs PSmove. This 140$ could be GTX 1080 instead 1070 with Nolo.
I agree like i said there are some good links in diy positional. Structure sensor appears to be more or less a kinect mounted to hmd to do spacial room map/scale (used with bridge iphone headset).
Sony demonstrated that you don’t need a killer pc setup to do vr at a reasonable level. Just pure optimised code (having total control over os & drivers hardware makes this easier)
Tho i think once linux gets rolling we may see similar results once things mature.
Hmmm…
What if we shrunk the ping pong ball using something like this from a key chain flash light

Flashlight Keychain
Now with the Ps3 eyecam also has microphone. Could this maybe be used like Nintendo did with the power glove? By mounting 2 directional speakers playing a low pulse (glove according to wiki used 40hz). I beleive nolo also uses sound positioning as part of their aray.
Is there a guide for setting up psmove for pimax?
Point of this trackers are should be afordable. Nolo is 200$ minimum even announced more.
VR tracker is more than Pimax so no go.
About size as you can see in video you can change radius size in config file so should work.
Only I don’t know how sensitive is because on Z axis it is calculating size of light ball radius. Increasing is zoom in decreasing is zoom out.
I figure for the cheap cams use ps3 ones. Dual ball probably not needed. There is another project using a single dome with 2 cams. Mod ps3 cams for ir.
With making the dome smaller i theorize would be good for setting up seated positional; though if you use 3 with IR leds might work for larger scale.
Though have a thought for an alternative to the ping pong ball that may improve tracking. How about a plastic hollow golf ball?
Would the divets perhaps help with tracking when lit up with IR or colored leds?

NOLO’s retail price is around 120 dollars in China.
How about this.Dog Toys for Sale - eBay
Glow in the dark balls without a light.
I think it could work with the new psmove hmd feature.
Nolo retail price in EU is 270$ without delivery…
it is possible. practically any ball solution could be use with it but Ping pong ball is the best solution.
No weigh, cheep, easy to get best result in use. So tell me why inventing hot watter?
I was under the impression the ping pong ball would only work with a light inside. No?
Works only with light.
I could not start it with a pimax.
The ps3 cam is capable of tracking gestures. I submit fluorescent high visibility colors might track (safety colors) see ps3 cam specs.
The plastic golf ball is the same as the ping pong ball. But has a cratered surface. Use ir leds should track well.
Well I dragged out my PSMove controllers and got them working with SteamVR again.
I have a 4 x PS3Eye camera setup and tracking works very well.
I only setup two PSMoves for left and right hands.
This time I took much more care on the calibration of the PSMoves and they worked much better than before.
I also downloaded the latest versions of PSMoveService and PSMoveSteamVRBridge software.
Not too difficult to get going with the help of youtube.
The only thing is that my newer PSMoves controllers do not have magnetometers and so drift is not as good as it should be, but still usable and it’s easy to re-centre them. I will see if I can find some of the older ones that have the magnetometer as these drift much less.
I may still buy a Nolo kit, but the PSMoves system will let me see if the games I want to play need tracked controllers.
I can only think of one at the moment (Star Trek Bridge Crew), but I’m not sure how I would play this by myself unless there is a mode with a virtual crew supplied.
I have another interesting outside the box idea! 
Wireless security/baby monitor cams.
Baby monitor. $50 ca
Pan & tilt sec cam i think was $60 ca or $80 ca
Both can do night vision & motion detection. With the pan & tilt it might be possible to use just 2 for 360 setup
@Sjef @wormeaten etc
At ps 3 eye fps up to 75 fps these web cameras most likely have a 30 + fps big delay
from wifi so that they can not be talked about
