most likely going to be my final version

Rendered Photo of V4 Tracker

Changelog from previous version

  • new and improved design (although slightly bigger than V3)
  • tighter tolerances while also being way easier to build than V3
  • modular mounting plate that can be toollessly screwed on and off to allow you to mount the tracker in whatever way works best for you
  • more durable design
  • you can now insert and remove components without fear of breaking something (V3 kinda had this problem XD)

Parts list

Battery 803040 3.7V 1000mAh Li-Po
Board WeMos D1 Mini (not V3 or Pro, just normal D1 Mini; refer to pictures in build guide if uncertain)
Charge controller TP4056 USB-C
IMU GY-BNO08X *see below
Switch SS-12F15VG6 or SS-12F15-G060 Micro Slide Switch
Bolts x2 M3*20mm bolts (nuts and bolts set) make sure the bolts are rounded top
Nuts x2 M3 nuts

* BNO08X's are currently sold out pretty much everywhere (or extremely overpriced) due to SlimeVR's explosion in popularity. Check out this list of alternative IMUs that will work (with varying tracking quality). Any BNO or MPU type IMU should* be the same size and therefore be compatible with this case without modification.

If available, try to purchase your components from a local supplier so that you can have reasonable shipping times. If you are unable to find any local suppliers, look for the components on AliExpress or Banggood, but expect 1-2 month shipping times.

How to print and build

To get started, you're going to need the V4.Case.Top.stl, V4.Case.Bottom.stl, and V4.Components.Plate.stl files from below. However, these files do not contain any way of mounting the tracker to your body. For that, and how to print and build everything, refer to the print and build guide.
