Showroom My DIY 6DOF built with standard parts

Ein grosser Vorteil gegenüber meinem 2DOF Sim ist , das ich mit FlyPT das Bewegungszentrum in die Position meines HMD legen kann , so das man keine VR Motion Cancellation braucht . Das klappt SUPER

A big advantage over my 2DOF Sim is that with FlyPT I can put the movement center in the position of my HMD so that you do not need any VR motion cancellation.
That works great

I don't think motion cancelation works this way. Purpose of motion cancelation is to make HMD transformation relative to the platform. IMO putting center of rotation in the place of HMD won't do the trick. Right way to do motion cancelation is to take inverse transformation of platform and multiply it with transformation of the HMD (before any rendering is done) in short you have two absolute transformations and you want to make HMD to be in platform local space.

Ja das ist schon richtig , aber der Effekt kommt dem schon sehr nahe.
Und das ohne die Probleme die ich mit Inside Out Traking habe.
Klar ist auch das Heave und Yaw so nicht aufgehoben wird.
Aber störend war für mich die bewegung in Rol , Pitch ,Sway und Surge die so kein Problem für mich sind.
Beispiel : Beim Roller Coaster wandert der virtuell Kopf im sitz soweit nach hinten beim aufstieg , das ich optisch im Sitz versinke .
Das ist komplet weg.

Ich habe mir eine gebrauchte HTC VIVE besorgt , wo ich versuche mit meinem 2DOF gemacht habe , was zwar grundsätzlich geklapt hat , aber jedesmal neu aufwendig kalibriet werden muste."Wegen einbindung bei WMR"
Irgend wann werde ich mich nochmal mit richtigen vr motion cancellation auseinander setzen.

Yes that's right, but the effect comes very close to that.
And without the problems I have with Inside Out Traking.
Clear is the Heave and Yaw is not canceled.
But annoying for me was the movement in Rol, Pitch, Sway and Surge which are not a problem for me.
Example: With the Roller Coaster, the virtual head wanders in the seat as far back as the ascent, which I visually sink into the seat.
That is completely gone.


I got a used HTC VIVE, where I tried with my 2DOF, which basically worked, but had to be recalibrated every time. "Because of integration with WMR"
At some point I will again deal with right vr motion cancellation.

Hi @xxpelle,

your 6DOF build looks great, congratulations!

On the first photo of this thread I recognized the rubber bulbs of your pneumatic g-seat, which I initially saw in this post of your 2DOF thread.

Are you still satisfied with this pneumatic bladder approach?

Right now I am also giving it a try and had my first test yesterday. I am using two bladders on the backrest of my seat for simulating 'surge', but until now the force applied to by back is rather weak compared to the g-seat paddles that I am using for simulating 'sway', and also compared to my harness tensioner. Maybe I still need to find the optimal position for the bladders.

(I am compressing the bladders with a wheelchair motor, so that the power should be more than sufficient.)

I have never tried a G-Seat with Paddles.
So I can not say what the difference is.
For me, the solution with pressure pad in combination with movement, wind simulation, vibration and VR is ideal.
However, the correct position of the cushions is important for the effect. But the pressure does not have to be that high.
I have currently installed 7 pressure pads.
One right and one to the left of the thigh and the kidneys "acceleration sideways Sway", one at the vertebrae "acceleration of the pre-value Surge" and two under the thighs "acceleration Heave"
For negative accelerations tighten the straps.
"Unbelievable effect with NoLimits when it's over your head or when you have to wait vertically for the start"
All together letting me dive into the simulation, that's how it should be for me.

Perfect, thanks a lot for your answer!

Actually I really like your approach, because the bladders can be easily positioned wherever you need them.
I will try to reposition my 'surge' bladders, or maybe only use one instead of two as you did. Placing it behind or near the spine may be a good approach.

And then I probably need to replace the tubes, because my pneumatic system is loosing its air to quickly.

Looks great! Care to share your Sabertooth enclosure 3d model? I like the minimalist, low profile design.

I like the sabertooth enclosure as well. Would there be any issues with heat?

no updates since 2020 ?

But in doing

how do you inflate your bags ?

interesting approach with the tooth circle there, what is the advantage? that you don't need such powerful motors? Isn't the response behavior slower with this system? do you want to sell me your old engines :-D

its a very neat solution, can i buy the 3d printed files ?

what type of actuator / servo do you use ?
