  1. Download and install the Steam Desktop client and SteamVR. Ensure that SteamVR is installed in the default location on your C drive. Other install paths are unsupported at this time.

  2. Install StretchSense App for SteamVR v0.9.0

  3. Launch SteamVR and let it run the first-time setup.

    NOTE: For this example, we are using SteamVR Version 2.3.5 with a Meta Quest 3 headset and 2x VIVE Ultimate Trackers. These instructions may vary slightly depending on your headset so make sure to follow the initial setup instructions from the headset manufacturer. 

  4. Connect your Meta Quest headset to the same WiFi network as your gaming PC.

  5. Ensure your Meta Quest headset is updated to the latest system firmware (v60 or higher).

  6. On your Meta Quest headset install Steam Link from the Meta app store.

  7. Connect your headset and base stations, conduct the Room Setup and choose Room Scale when prompted.

  8. (optional) With SteamVR running, go to the SteamVR settings menu and toggle Show Advanced Settings. Adjust the following setting: Video → Pause VR when headset is idle. This will allow SteamVR to send tracker data to apps, even when the headset is not worn.

  9. In your Meta Quest headset, change the power settings to never let the headset sleep.

  10. Mount each VIVE Ultimate tracker to your StretchSense Studio Glove using a 1/4” screw to the universal mount or compatible wrist straps. We recommend using the palm straps from AMVR for maximum stability. Ensure that the trackers are fastened tightly. Depending on the mount you use, rotate each tracker on the mount so the virtual controller’s LED faces the correct directions as pictured below. In the StretchSense SteamVR app, select the mount below.

Mounting Notes

Use for best hand position accuracy for basic SteamVR content at the expense of comfort. Remove the 1/4” screw baseplate and clip directly to the 3D printed mount. Attach hair ties or rubber bands to loop around hooks to stabilize wobbling - you may need to choose the correct band length to avoid straining the connectors of the glove electronics module. Use foam tape under the mount to increase comfort.
Position is compatible with most VR straps but will not track wrist bend. We recommend AMVR wrist straps or Rebuff Reality track straps. Use the 1/4” screw baseplate to mount on strap.
Use AMVR palm straps for best hand position accuracy for high-energy SteamVR games with lots of movement. Has the best overall comfort, balanced with hand position accuracy. Use the 1/4” screw baseplate to mount on strap.
