Description
This is the modular attachment system for the Bigscreen Beyond. the main clip will stay on the headset while other things can be taken on and off as you wish using magnets. For now this only includes the mount for a Vive face tracker. I will be adding more mounting options later. Also the main clip you see in the pictures was an old design, please disregard the top portion that you see sticking up.
Note: Due to the nature of how small the parts are, printing with an SLA printer is HIGHLY recommended!
Parts you will need:
2x3mm round neodymium magnets
CA glue or some other kind of adhesive to hold the magnets in place
M4 nut and bolt for the face tracker mount
The three large holes are for the magnets, there is one small hole you will see and that is for a screw if you want to mount whatever you have on the clip permanently, it uses the same screws that the headset uses. This screw hole is optional.
UPDATE: Made the vive mount longer to increase tracking performance, the old mount was too close to the face and was causing issues with tracking. This new mount should be the correct distance away.
I have also attached the step files for you to create your own attachments!
UPDATE: I have added a new version of the main clip that is a bit of a tighter fit so it doesn't move around as much on the headset as well as a slightly longer tracker arm to position the face tracker a little further away from the mouth to increase tracking performance. I will have both of these as separate additional files in case you like the old ones better.
