Hello, I'm curious as to your motion capture use cases and if you've considered a Vive Tracker only setup for motion capture. Were you able to work around the issue with the advice of using just video capture instead of infrared? I would also suggest to look at the hotspots or rather cold spots of coverage in the Tracker documentation as tracker placement could be a factor as well. Relatively speaking sensor coverage is greater on the HMD and controllers compared to the trackers, therefore placement (or how it's held) can affect tracking due to occlusion, Base station placement may need to be higher than usual to avoid occlusion.
