Sending tracking info from Vive Tracker to remote renderer cam

 

I've managed to setup a Multi-Machine project with 2 cameras, one coming from the central machine, and the other coming from the renderer machine. The issue I'm having, is the camera from the renderer is coming through fine, but I don't have any tracking whatsoever. Is there a way I can send the tracking data to the remote machine, or Is there a limitation with SteamVR and I need to connect another vive link box to the other machine?

Managed to hack into both machines, and now I have tracking on the remote renderer.

What I did, was to first let SteamVR pick up everything using the headset, and then activate the null driver that comes with SteamVR on both machines. After that, I pair the trackers on both machines so they have their respective names saved, and done!

Hi,

Thank you for sharing this.

Aximmetry does not forward the tracking info from the central machine towards the renderers. The reason for this is that with most of the tracking solutions this does not pose any problem, because either they are IP based, or can be setup very easily on multiple machines (like Antilatency). The only system that needs a more involved solution is unfortunately SteamVR.
