This tutorial applies to an older version (pre-2022) LPVR marker holder set from LP-Research. If you received your targets from the maker of your optical tracking system, please refer to their documentation for assembly instructions. Our software fully supports all available targets. |
Remove the small hex-key screws at the top and bottom of the VIVE Pro. The screws are hidden beneath small black plastic covers that need to be removed.
Slide the holder over the headset with the protruding pieces on the inside of the holder locking into the now empty screw holes of the VIVE Pro.
Use the small hex key screws delivered with the holder to fix the holder to the headset.
Attach the LPMS-CU2 IMU to the holder using the supplied M3 screws.
Plug the micro USB cable into the IMU, fix it to the cable guide on the holder and plug the other side into the USB-C port of the VIVE.
To acces the VIVE Pro USB-C port, remove the foam cover on the inside of the VIVE.
Remove the plastic protector.
Plug the USB cable into the port under the cover you just removed.

One marker should be inserted in one of the four pods in the top corners using a 50mm rod. This ensures visibility from behind. All other markers can use shorter screws.
One marker each should be attached on the far ends on each side to define the horizontal axis of the solid body.
The remaining two markers are distributed over the attachment pods on the front to ensure different combinations for different headsets.
While screwing the screws into the pods, make sure that you stay in the correct direction to ensure maximal stability post-assembly. See the completely assembled HMD below.
