It was one of those “huh, I’m surprised nobody’s done this yet… or they have and I’m an idiot” moments so I figured I’d check in here and gauge interest or see if theres already a device like this (but it seems everyone is too focused on AI and computer vision currently).
I’m waiting for 2 more sensors to show up so I can nail it down, but here’s a video of the prototype on a breadboard with my comically oversized solar external battery:
But I honestly have no idea how much demand/want/need there is for something like this (not to mention it’s a lot of work for what’s effectively just a fun side project, lol)
Also, I cross-posted to the primary vFAPS thread (as its what I have the wifi streaming integrated into)
Looks very neat. Thank you for the effort so far and congratulations on your progress!
I had thought about making something similar (not in VR), but it’s unfortunately very low on my priority list. So I’m glad to see others are going forward with and are actually implementing it.
My only gripe with any of these solutions is, that it will still take considerable effort in post to actually make a bang-on script. But don’t let that stop you as with other (software) tools it will still considerably accelerate the process and get us to 80% a lot faster either way… And maybe you could offer courses to people on how to stroke precisely (talk about after-market )
