| | My glasses only calibrate when facing south... when i calibrate them facing north, my left and right get swapped, when facing east my yaw points north, when calibrating west my yaw points north again (wich is opposite on the glasses from east) and even when i face south, soon as i look down my view does a 180 pointing north immediatly wich makes it hard to use cause every time i want to look down i'm looking the other way. Strangly when i look up it works fine. The set zero button is pretty well useless and only causes the glasses confusion when i calibrate facing south and then set zero looking in any other direction. I notice that alot of people are complaining about tracking issues so i'm guessing that im not really in a unique situation. Is this a design flaw? A flaw with my glasses only? Is there something i can do to make it work? Did i just pay 400 dollars for a compass? Will the new firmware patch correct this? Will it correct the color depth? These are the questions i have. For those with the answers, my offices are mobile, the glasses behave the same at home, and in the three differant offices i've tried them in so i strongly suspect that an over abundance of magnetically charged somethingerothers are not causing the problem, though its quite plain that the yaw has a definate attraction to north. I'm running windows vista32, version 1.0.5.2 of the vr920 software on my home computer, and windows xp pro with version (i believe) 1.0.5.2 of the vr920 software on my laptop. Any insight would be helpful. |

| | I don't understand how you can face a direction when you calibrate them. Calibrating means turning the glasses through every possible angle, in all 3 DOF. |

| | for me the yaw is always a negative value and does not change much. in the calibration in never fill more that one line. Is it a defective unit or could it be something is interfering with the sensor? |

| | so you mean to say that i have to rotate them 360 degrees in the yaw pitch and roll? ok i tried this just now, its not doing what it did anymore, but the yaw still sucks, roll and pitch work great and its not doing what it did before anymore, and the set zero button seems to be working. whats the secret to getting yaw to work properly? |

| with yaw there is almost alwayse going to be a +- 0.1 variance (shake) however if your current setup is worse than this then you might try calibrating for longer. i myself calibrate it for 5 min's which helps to sometimes even get the varience lower than 0.1. you could try that also.
hope this helps. |
