Vision

Overview

StringsVR is aimed to make a wireless SteamVR-compatible setup using the Orange Pi 2W, 6dof tracking also supported through cameras on front of Headset.

Streaming

StringsVR is currently capable of streaming 2k@72hz over a strong wifi connection with 19ms of latency. (This will highly depend on your Wi-Fi it is recommended to have your PC connected to ethernet)

Questions

How big is the StringsVR SheepyHat PCB?

It measures 145 × 83.5 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the StringsVR SheepyHat use?

18 parts, built around the SRB22A2BBBNN. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the StringsVR SheepyHat KiCad files?

From the StringsVR/StringsVR repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is StringsVR-PCB/StringsVR-SheepyHat/StringsVR-SheepyHat.kicad_pcb and its schematic StringsVR-PCB/StringsVR-Power/StringsVR-Power.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the StringsVR SheepyHat design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask StringsVR before reusing the design.
