I have always been a huge fan of XSENS. We really need to get a lot more people interested in Full Body Tracking. I believe that if there is a significant demand in the market, brands like XSENS could realistically benefit from it and respond by releasing more affordable consumer versions of their technology.
Wow, that's looking great! I've been working on a SteamVR driver to represent an XSens suit as individual Vive trackers and almost managed to finish it but ran into issues with making the body follow the headset. It looks as though you've managed to solve that issue.
Thank you so much for writing this review!! I've been needing this so bad! This is the only real review I've seen of XSens on VRC! A few questions: 1. Is the special OSC application you made required to make it work, or does XSens just work with VRC for all avatars out of the box after initial calibration? 2. Do you think this is significantly better than the vive trackers? How much better? For example, if I want to do some intense dance/gymnastic moves in VRC
Someday.... someday we'll have a full IMU solution as good as XSENS that doesn't cost as much as a car. Although I thought the bigger issue with XSENS was the subscription model of sorts, which CodeMiko mentioned. Since it's a piece of enterprise software to get it running properly.
Holy hell, $15k. Yeah, I'll get a set of 4 tundra trackers for just under $500. I'm not sure I would want to wear a suite, I don't even like long sleeves and when I'm in VR I wear shorts because it is freaking hot in my apartment, lol. Maybe I'll buy two more lighthouses, that would help also. If it was a haptics suite maybe I'd get over my arm being covered. I'm wondering if tracking with base stations will just get better before the price of suits comes down. Haptics though, I might be into that.
@@Fofamit Yeah I haven’t actually tested them in VRC yet, just picked them for the cheaper Mocap option. They work better than rokoko out of the box, though no cleaning options for the animations in the software, so everything needs to be fixed by hand if it does need to be fixed.
ive been using viso and its free no equipment and its not perfect requires a lot of calibration but it dose everything you need for full body you will never see me buying this
After making bank at a casino, i emailed them to get one, but they never responded. v.v i put the money down for a house instead. 😢 😂 😭 😢 adulting sucks.
This is no longer a want for vrc this is a n e e d lmao, sorry but as someone who dances frequently or loves tackling friends in vrc by jumping onto a beanbag it's just a must (mostly for dancing though and whenever doing the strem but yeah)
@@Fofamit movies such as Avatar uses system like Vicon with 100+ camera with Head Mount Camera. very different system from xsens or rokoko suit. But htey are too expensive. Only few personal content creators use them.
@@sfkim44 Using an optical volume is a lot different than using a suit. Thinking specifically about VR and VRChat you wouldn't want to use an optical system like Optitrack, Vicon, Optotrack anyway since it is prohibitively more expensive and you have to worry about the retroreflectors falling off.
@Fofamit yes I do agree. I am just pointing out Avatar used optic one. I am just waiting for my SlimeVR x10 to arrive(cheap). BTW Your avatar looks great !
I do the strim: www.twitch.tv/fofamit

I 100% agrree with this

This is legendary.

Base station tracking is pretty good! If you're having issues could be reflection, occlusion, or/and interference.
Pfff, I got a set of 8 tundra trackers (5+3) and a suite to attach them to
It works great with my 3 base stations :)
@@HellSpawnRulerOfHell Awesome!
i miss watching your lives. i’ll keep an eye out!
That is legendary. But. Is there a way to get this program that you are jusing for Xsens to comunicate with VRC? I would even be ready to buy this.
Yeah I was pretty close to getting an Xsens. Maybe in the future! For now I’m using Steam VR for all my mocap 🙂. It’s like… 11 tundras 😂.
Honestly 8 Tundras + Index + HMD if you don't have any occlusion issues would perform very similiar due to the way VRChat implemented OSC IK

Ight time to save up for a motion capture suit
you deserve so much
Ughhhhhh I need this (and the gloves....)
Hopefully more affordable tech comes out with similar quality!

Is it actually better than 8 vive trackers?
yes
Brb saving up
lmfao $15k
XD
The future is now! If you have 15k T__T
skullemoji the feels
I have walko vr, worse tracking I have ever seen
Oh? Never heard of them, they do look interesting though
so cool ^_^

actually avatar is camera based tracker... so very different
I am not sure what you mean.

@@sfkim44 Avatar actually used a combination of Optical and Mocap suits.
