Have you got the Touch controllers Pete?  I have a set, but not much chance to use them so far.

I have - finally got around to trying them out for the 1st time tonight! Only had them 6 months. Because I'm seated / where I can place the trackers they are a bit limited. Installed the new Google Earth VR - quite impressive zooming around the world :)

I bought 6 "brackets" off ebay, only cost about £5.  The allow the fixing of the sensors at each end of my monitor shelf, and track me around the whole free space in me shed.  I have a couple spare if you want them.  Can be used on walls etc and have a standard photographic camera mount screw on them.

Please bring them a long and I'll take a look. Not sure they'll be much help but worth considering as they may help / give some ideas. As I say I think I'm limited at the moment WRT where is all sits and the fact I'm seated close to the monitor.
