A new SteamVR mod from the developer behind now allows body tracking by emulating Trackers via Kinect’s motion sensing data, enabling an inexpensive solution for full body motion tracking in VR. The driver, works for both and Vive when running SteamVR; this could be particularly interesting for Rift users, as Oculus currently offer no ‘Vive Tracker’ equivalent. Since the launch of the Vive Tracker earlier this year, in combination with the two tracked controllers and headset. But at $99 each, this is another expensive upgrade for VR gamers; only a small selection of VR titles have enabled full-body functionality, such as, and.
Driver4VR’s emulation of three Trackers using a single Kinect makes for a much more affordable solution for both Vive and Rift users. Microsoft’s hardware is easily the most widely spread and inexpensive full-body tracker on the market (, ), and has proven to be an. This is the second project from Grzegorz Bednarski, the developer behind the. As shown in the setup video above, the Driver4VR installation is simple, with calibration steps to align the virtual trackers to Kinect data.
While there are apparently no problems with Oculus’ ‘constellation’ tracking, the Kinect’s infrared projector can interfere with the Vive’s tracking—particularly the newer ‘Kinect 2.0’ model for Xbox One. Some users are finding success with both models, but the developer recommends Vive users use the (rather unfortunate as Kinect 2.0 is more accurate). I skimmed the video to the end to see body tracking and it did not look great to be honest. The feet left the legs, hands were shaking and the pelvis shifted height while the legs remained the same height, that should not happen.
Maybe the IK was messed up? With Vive / Rift you already have very accurate hand and head tracking with positional tracking too so would it not make more sense for this to only track lower body foot + knee joints and blend that with the existing tracking to create a more accurate full body representation? He’s doing a great job and I appreaciate a lot his products, but I wonder why when we at Immotionar released full body tracking Virtual Reality using Kinects for all headsets with 360-degrees avateering, no one gave us all this attention.
Rant apart, Kinect is cheap but has low FPS and quite bad accuracy if compared to Oculus Touch of Vive controller. Furthermore from my startup experience, most people do not want to buy kinects just to play VR. If they already have one, they love the product, though.

Maybe due to the commercial nature that you didn’t get that much attention. This one is completely free. And in regard to Kinect, yes not a lot of people will buy a Kinect just to be able to use it for VR, but enthousiasts propably have them laying around anyway. And if it really gets better, than it’s quite possible that people will buy one for cheap. Just look at the LeapMotion, when it shipped it was practically useless, but now with the latest software it is actually quite good, and that’s still with the old hardware, you’ll wonder what will happen if they ship the new much improved hardware.
About the commercial nature you’re right, but I’m not talking about customers, I’m talking about journalists this magazine, like others, was not interested in talking about us because didn’t find it interesting. I guess that it was too early maybe.
Kinect isn’t updated since september 2014 and the Kinect team DOES NOT EXIST ANYMORE. And surely Microsoft won’t recreate it only for some enthusiasts. One of our plans was switching to another sensor called Orbbec, that is smaller than a Kinect and has similar performances. The problem is that its skeletal tracking is still not at Microsoft’s level, since MS has used more than 30000 people to train its neural network and this is impossible for a little company. Driver4VR could think about integrating it as well.
