How can i utilise the Vive Controller's tracking for an external peripheral?,How can i use the Vive Vr controller as a tracker for an external peripheral i am creating?
I need to track an external peripheral in 3D space and i would like to use the controller; i've seen some cases where people have mounted the controller to the peripheral itself. Im aware of the HTC tracker puck but due to limitations with my uni project, i cannot use this. How can i derive tracking information from the controller so that it may be used with an external device?
Any educational reading suggestions or links would be greatly appreciated.
Programming experience: Moderate Virtual Reality development experience: Low,I've seen some peripheral designs having what seems to have the controller mounted on to the peripheral itself. I cant use the tracker puck available by HTC due to limitations for my UNI project. How can I utilize the tracker functions the controller has and apply it to an external peripheral? Rather, could someone point me to some Reading material or educational sources so that I may learn VR development in this special case?
Thanks.
Sorry for the strange format, my browser bugged out and had to rewrite the question again, but seemed to of saved it anyway.
