Is Pimax using OSVR?

Back up configs: AppData\Roaming\PSMoveService
Go to where PSMoveService is extracted & run SteamVR_UninstallDriverWin64.bat

Now it’s possible to try different versions of PSMoveService.

Extract, say ver. 6.0.9 and run SteamVR_InitialSetupWin64.bat/SteamVR_ReinstallDriverWin64.bat/SteamVR_SetDriverVarsWin64.bat

Oculus is installed on 2 of my setups.
Really only have it for the Drivers/Revive use.

The main issue ran into was the inability to use extended mode right after Oculus was installed.

After much messing about, turns out the Pimax’s extended mode display driver gets rendered useless after Oculus is installed.

Uninstalling the driver fixed it.

Great job~! :smile:

  1. About gyro drift, It is mentioned here : Release Alpha Release #5.5.2 · psmoveservice/PSMoveService · GitHub
    Support for PSMoveController without a magnetometer
    Controllers with newer firmware have the magnetometer disabled :frowning:
    Magnetometer will show up as disabled in the config tool if this is the case
    Added orientation reset
    Point the controller forward and hold down the select button for a 1/4 second
    You should see the controller snap forward if it had drifted
    Can be performed as many times as you want in either SteamVR or the Orientation test tool

  2. About jitter, Developer’s comment. : More cameras · Issue #213 · psmoveservice/PSMoveService · GitHub
    “Also keep in mind that because the ps3 eye is a 640x480 camera you’re not going to get good tracking from any one camera past about 7-8 feet or so”

  3. About OculusHome, see how I presented in the linked article.

Hi,
I re-positioned my four ps3eye cameras so that all are within 6 feet of cal table and re did all calibrations.
Stability improved so that there is hardly any jitter at all. Hovever drift is still not too good.

I also have one PSMove controller with the Magnetometer enabled which I used in place of one of the new ones in the new cals.

Having the Magnetometer made no difference to the drift.
In fact although it worked, it seemed to introduce some instability of its own and drift was still a problem.
It would be useful if the PSMove cal software had a utility to measure and compensate for longer term gyro drift to form a drift characteristic map and then apply this in real time.

Will go back to using the two new PSMove controllers for now.

Cheers,
Luke
