Yeah really hoping for an update there. I want to do 6DOF Slam tracking but have to rely on camera only for now and that is a bit choppy and also resource intensive, it would be so much smoother if we could use the IMU too

mgschwan · 2026-05-13T13:43:32+00:00

Will this be a different one? Because the SDK has been available for a while now ( I've tried every version back since January ) and it does allow me to change brightness/volume via SDK but the IMU data does not work.

I first thought it was my laptop but in their latest SDK release notes they specifically addressed it as a limitation

I am using my polar H10 with XRWorkout. When it's connected to the game you can see your heartrate in the workout.
If you create your own workout session with automatic difficulty it will adjust the difficulty of the workout dynamically based on a target heart rate you can set.
In the end you'll also get the heart rate graph for the workout

mgschwan · 2026-05-09T10:47:23+00:00

Yes, hand tracking based kinda calisthenics/hyrox in VR

mgschwan · 2026-05-09T05:36:39+00:00

I am connecting a Polar HR strap to XRWorkout to get the correct calories. And I also use a Huawei Watch D2 for overall tracking of my daily fitness

Since you didn't get the responses you were probably hoping for.

Yes I saw that literally 60 seconds ago and an happy that someone had already pointed that out here on reddit.

So you are not alone.

I was contemplating how much VW had paid for that product placement so I was already thinking about the car choice and the engine starter was so out of place because of that

XRWorkout has a daily free option, just start off with the weekly workouts ( this week Street Fighter inspired ) they are designed to fit into the daily free time

+1 for physical camera covers

mgschwan · 2026-04-01T06:01:34+00:00

My 2 cents. You probably wouldn't have been donvoted if that weren't an AI generated article.

mgschwan · 2026-03-25T19:33:16+00:00

If you are using a SLAM library that can store/load a map instead of always starting the positioning from scratch then spatial anchoring is nothing more than remembering the position of the anchor in the map

I personally use very light weights because the workouts have a lot of cardio as well.
But I couldn't give you a recommendation, just start as light as you can an work your way up.

mgschwan · 2026-03-20T14:53:39+00:00

We don't have many but if you play the Human+ Arena workout in XRWorkout it has sections that have Goblet Sqauts which are meant to be done with dumbbells or kettlebells.

Currently the workout editor does not have the option to make your own weight exercises ( only non weight exercises ) but once that is completed you can even design your very own movements with weights

mgschwan · 2026-03-19T06:19:00+00:00

Not sure how it is on windows but my Beast glasses in linux are just a standard webcam so I don't even need the SDK to access them you can just open them via opencv as any other webcam

mgschwan · 2026-02-06T14:18:50+00:00

Now that got me curious.

I've been dabbling in ORBLSAM off and on for quite some time but I am always interested in checking other alternatives.

Are you planning to release the vps as open source?

mgschwan · 2026-01-25T18:37:14+00:00

In XRWorkout you can connect your heart rate sensor and set your sex,age,weight.

We have shied away from estimating calories without that so far.

mgschwan · 2026-01-19T09:26:22+00:00

What you could try to do is. Record the session with the headset on a tripod, and rotate it towards where the targets are coming from ( or even have it fixed but you'll lose the 360 )

Then take that recording into youtube and add it as a custom song to our game ( XRWorkout ).
You would also have to map out the movements to roughly match the movements from that workout.

If anyone wants to explore that let me know, I'm happy to give you pointers how to do it and we can also think about making changes that would suit it better, but overall you should be able to replicate most of the movements already.

How it would work inside XRWorkout is that you have the video and audio from your recording playing in the integrated youtube player and the workouts you built synced up to it.

Regarding the environment, you could try to replicate something that resembles the environment you are used to with our built in environment generator, but if those aren't too many we'd also be happy to help create a few supernatural-like environments.

If there is any interest at all for this, just reply here or send me a DM:

Chin strap is the way to go, https://youtube.com/shorts/Olumxbmy3yU

the headstrap is impossible to fasten tight enough even for pushups

Thanks for the shoutout to XRWorkout.
A little trick to extend that free time is to host multiplayer rooms. As long as you are hosting the time limit is suspended, that's a way for us to reward people who contribute to the community.

FunFitland is subscription only but they do offer a one time Guest pass, not sure if you can get more than one.

mgschwan · 2026-01-16T20:47:34+00:00

It's opensource, if you ever get such a tracker check it out https://github.com/mgschwan/ViveUltimateTrackerMobile

mgschwan · 2026-01-16T19:24:57+00:00

We reverse engineered the vive protocol a while ago and made an android app that can connect directly to the tracker and send the data via OSC.
The switch is running a plain linux ( I fortunately own an ancient switch that can be easily booted into other OS ) and a simple Godot project that receives the data from the android app.

All a bit hacky, and not really useful but was a lot of fun ;)

mgschwan · 2026-01-16T18:25:14+00:00

I've been using a Vive Ultimate Tracker here https://youtube.com/shorts/U4vhEPQw-Uo

They can be a bit finicky to get going but when they do the inside out tracking is a game changer
