Vive XR Elite and Vive Trackers

[replica]

Hi all.

Is there any word at this point on if \ how the Vive XR Elite will support Vive trackers? I'm hoping it doesn't involve a lot of nonsense if so...

I was speaking more in reference to the existing vive tracker

Full body VRC tracking is something that will decide if I buy this thing or not

I see, it's actually designed to work with 2 different tracking system. 
But there are tools like OpenVR space calibrator out there to make it work on PC based content.

I hope HTC releases a tracker which mounts to the headset like Apara did with theirs, it essentially uses the tundra trackers to make the headset tracked.

So in other words, lighthouses will still be needed?

That's what I assumed, but I was hoping some 3rd party application wouldn't be needed to make things work together
