I've been testing #soulartstation for a few weeks and I absolutely DO recommend them! My full video, including comparisons between Soulart, VIVE, and Rebocap, will be coming soon! But for now, here are some initial thoughts as you consider whether to back their Kickstarter:

SelfReflect is also launching soon. Full body, hands, and face on a single device. I can send you a link to try it before it hits the App Store next week.

I have it! I’m actually in your Discord, hahaha. I haven’t gotten any of the new testflights in a long time though, since it was not super responsive for me in face+body+hand mode. But it sounds like it’s time for me to give it another shot!

Oh nice! Yea the latest build should just be available in TestFlight.

1. Markerless FBT >>>>>>> For years I've dreamed of just turning on my PC and hitting "record" without having to put on 15 trackers, boot up SteamVR, and hope nothing explodes. Soulart makes that dream come true! Markerless tracking is the future and it's just gonna get better!

2. It's not VIVE quality but it's damn close For now, nothing beats VIVE. But the Soulart offers huge improvements on some of the things that plague most VIVE competitors, like foot sliding and calibration drift.

3. Roomscale feels real and accurate Most IMU-based trackers like Rebocap and Slime try to deal with roomscale positioning using neat software tricks. But Soulart actually is an absolute positioning system, so walking around my room is snappy and accurate.

4. Did I mention it's markerless? I CANNOT OVERSTATE HOW GREAT IT IS NOT TO HAVE TO WEAR TRACKERS OMGGGGGGG

Hey, does furniture or other obstacles interfere with tracking?

Anything that obscures your body from the stations will cause tracking loss, but that's why it's best to use 3 or more stations. As long as 2 stations can see your body, it stays very stable! So furniture doesn't seem to be a big problem. My room has tons of stuff in it. 😂

I am very much looking forward to your newest video, this is the first time I've ever heard of Soulart Station

How good is it if you turn around totally so you aren't facing any of the trackers?

I have my trackers equally spaced around me so I couldn’t say, but I’m planning on experimenting with different layouts and trying 1 and 2 tracker layouts as well so I’ll let you know soon!

I'd love to know, I was using a Kinect for a while and the biggest issue was it basically not working at all if you turned around. If Soulart can do that relatively okay, then it's worth looking at even with just a single unit

Being in a field with a windmill is about what I expect from a world your character would visit haha

Thank you!! This is my custom cottage world, I’m glad it feels so “Gillie” ❤️
