HTC Vive Tracker (3.0) & Vive Base Station

The trakers i love i used the 2018 trakers and when i got These ones i love them the battery life is better and the there light waight and smaller.

It sounds weird but in a game like VRChat, these make everything feel more real. Even if youre just sitting in front of a mirror for a couple hours. Its an experience, and definitely not one everybody can afford. If you get the chance to try it out, go for it.

I like that they last longer and I dance a lot in vrc so it really enhances my performance.

I dont recommend getting this tiny device if you plan on playing video games with it, price will definitely come down exponentially in the coming months so be patient. Now if your an animator, this is a MUST cop. Ikinema Orion or VRIK will give you very high quality mocap data. Especially VRIK if you tweak the settings a bit. If you have 10 trackers, VRIK and a lot of space in your basement or garage, the quality/accuracy is comparable to Xsens, maybe 80% there. Ikinema Orion is amazing but pricey, $500/yr is not worth it compared to VRIK, I already had VRIK so I just spent $500 on more trackers rather than the Ikinema software. The more trackers, the better.

These work great for full body tracking its a shame the price hasnt come down since release and since they qre releasing new ones for 30 bucks more.

Upgrading from the 2.0, its much lighter, has noticeably less jitters on the 3.0, and the extra battery life is a god send for the longer vr sessions or when you forget to charge your trackers.

I recently purchased 3 of these for full body tracking. For what you get, these are just some little plastic pucks and not worth $99 a piece. Honestly, not even worth the price if they gave you three for $99. Seriously, there isnt much to these trackers and probably cost them maybe $10 a piece to produce, if that. Now, that said, the experience is absolutely worth the price. Being able to go into VR with full body presence is just something else. Not too many games support it, but the ones that do completely changes how you play. Pros: 1. After the initial pairing and update of firmware, they connect quickly and consistently. 2. I cant really think of any specific pros. They work. You kinda forget about the trackers and just get immersed in the game. Cons: 1. Charging is on the slow side. Im used to the Index controllers having fast charging, so using these included USB 2.0 cables to charge can be fairly slow in comparison. 2. Battery life could be better. 3. This one isnt really a con, but it does make me question the QC on these devices. 1 of the trackers I got has a yellow charging light, instead of a orange light. Not a problem really, but it is a bit of an eye sore when they are charging to see that on tracker with the wrong colored light. Overall, I wont fault it for the one with the wrong colored charging light, but I will ding it one star because of the slow charging and battery life. I honestly cant wait to see what the next thing in VR tech will be for full body tracking.

If youre looking to buy these specifically for VRChat, and youre on the edge about purchasing them, buy them. Being able to move your legs and hips is a complete game changer, the experience to me was comparable to being in vr for the first time. Simply cannot play VRChat anymore without using these, so much of the experience is lost.

While there are occasionally issues with tracking, and more annoyingly issues with the tracker connecting to the USB, its serviceable. Full body in vr is easily worth the expense. I would recommend purchasing this with a product such as TrackBelt + 2 TrackStraps (VR Bundle for Vive Trackers) as to have a decently made and comfortable way of putting it on your body. As for how to put these on: - For two of the trackers, put each on the top of your foot while wearing socks. - For the waist tracker, put it at either the left side or the right side of your waist, so you can lay down without losing tracking.

I hate the battery life but other than that there fun
