If I hold the device by hand, Pimax8k lost tracking
A description of the video.
You can see that tracking was successful at the beginning of the video and that both the base station and the controller headset are being held.
However, when I hold the Pimax device by hand, the tracking is lost and you can confirm that the picture out in Pimax lens. At the same time, it indicates that it is missing tracking of the headset from the Pitool and Steam VR both.
I’ve tried down below
Testing two versions of PiTool
Reinstall and move the base station( but controller does not lose tracking, so it is not the reason)
Pimax headset position check. (but it is not happen on my head-not touch)
Yes it seems the majority of the sensors are on the angled edges right where you would grab it. The only way i found to cut down on the effect is to grab it directly on the center of the face. Hope this helps you as well.
Looks to me like you are blocking the only sensors visible to your lighthouses… touching it is probably making no difference, you are covering up a bunch of sensors with your hand…
Same issue here, never had this with the vive, it looks like pimax didn’t put enough redundant sensors and it’s only natural to adjust the headset by grabbing the side. Kinda surprised if you have two lighthouses in opposite corners like you are supposed to that if you lift by one side it still greys out and loses tracking though as you would think the sensors on the other edges would still work. I wonder if lighthouse 2.0 is any better as I have the old school 1.0
