Using Trackers for Better Quality

To achieve better tracking quality, incorporating additional tracking devices is highly beneficial. HTC Vive helmets, which utilize the lighthouse tracking method, are widely used. Integrating Vive and Tundra trackers with this setup can significantly enhance tracking accuracy.

Properly linking each tracker with a VR glove is crucial for accurate tracking. Assign each tracker a specific role corresponding to its glove:
