I’ve been looking into it and it’s not confirmed that you will be able to mix the index knuckles, as I was gonna do the same thing and it may not be possible!
Nice Video and good to see that the HTC XR Elite getting some improvements! You should do something like Casey Neistat where you walk through a big city with passthrough and the headset on your head. You could sit somewhere, watch a video, interview people or travel by train and another person films you and how the people around you react. It would show how similar (or not similar) the HTC XR Elite is to the Apple Vision Pro. It is also very funny to see what people on the street think about it. Maybe you could even do it with the face tracker attached, so it looks even more stupid. :D
your video is most helpful for the information, thank you! I saw it has tongue tracking, does it move in-out, left-right like the facial with vive pro? and is a wireless battery connection possible for the headset?
I haven't tested out the tongue tracking, but I would assume it has the full range of motion? As for using a wireless battery, yes it can, but you have to make sure you use the correct power battery, I got this one for mine, and it works really well www.amazon.com/dp/B08THCNNCS?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details
Thank you for your work! So sad that they seem unable to make well padded face gaskets. I wonder if the spot where you can see sharp increases with the tracker because for me it is about 40% of my view where I can read things so moving my eyes is pointless. If that does not improve, the padding as you stated in the comments, is not improved and there is not much you can use the eye tracking for gameswhise I see no point in getting this.
I completely agree. I think this is something I can use, because I want to try to make unreal projects that use eye tracking, Since I think most future headsets will be using eye tracking, but I by no means think someone should get this headset for this module, and I'm not even sure someone with an XR Elite should get this module unless they plan to use it for development. Thank you for your comment!
@@VirtualRook are you connected to the headset through wifi, or direct usb connection to the pc? i have the face tracker and have done the calibation and it detects it, but when trying to use it in vrchat with an avatar that supports vrcft nothing happens with enabling/disabling all the different options. i was under the impression that you needed to install a bunch of extra programs including running vive sranipal etc
Hello! Did you have to get any addtional software on pc to make the face tracking to work on vrhcat? I know a few other headset need this to passthrpough the data so vrchat can recognise it all.
Hello! I currently have this headset and it is extremely uncomfortable for me. The face gasket doesnt touch my face on the sides and all the pressure goes entirely on my nose and forehead. Does this seem to help make the xr elite more comfortable?
Sadly no, although it does cover more of the side of your face, I would argue it pinches your nose more. Have you added the top strap to try to put more of the weight on the top of your head?
@@VirtualRook I may try that. However my nose just happens to be too large to allow the headset to not put all of its weight on it haha. I need to tighten the headset very tight as I do breakdancing in VR
So to clarify, this only works on the PC version of VR chat? I thought I had read somewhere that Vive claimed that their face tracker should work natively on the XR elite’s Standalone version of vr chat, I can’t seem to get it to Work on the standalone version though…
Weirdly enough, it is still up, their site is just garbage and doesn't show it, but here is the page for it. business.vive.com/us/product/vive-full-face-tracker/
@@VirtualRook yeah. Like, I don't like supporting Meta but dear God until HTC uses a microphone newer than one found in a mid 90s cell phone, they are completely unusable.
I sadly have never used the Rift S, but from what I hear Meta is not really supporting the Rift S, so I would steer clear of it. The Vive at least is still getting support, but the quality of their software is just "ok".... so It's up to you really.
@@VirtualRookdid you get this off the EU buisness site? I really appriciate your video but i cant seem to find it anywhere T_T thanks for the information
i really need help with this, as if i can purchase the face tracekr ill be using this to replace my current hmd. but it seems impossible to locate. i cant imagine how u got this in a day. T___T pls respond.
We need a follow-up video where you take a shot every time you say "tracking" and then record the VR Chat avatar tracking your hangover.
OMG, seriously, when I was watching over this during editing I was ready to punch my self XD
I might just get an XR elite jsut for face and eye tracking along with vive trackers and index knuckles
I’ve been looking into it and it’s not confirmed that you will be able to mix the index knuckles, as I was gonna do the same thing and it may not be possible!
@BbyDizzyExe My neigbor mixed an HP Reverb 2 and Knuckles contolllers
Took the concept of bisexual lighting to the max.
Thanks for the review. Been thinking about getting this headset

The comment maybe sounded like a joke, but I am actually serious about it as a video idea.
I don't know if my social anxiety would let me do this hahaha but still a great idea!

@VirtualRook thank you for sharing! and I found the video about the tongue tracking, it works so well but not sure with how did worked 😅
tongue tracking works massive W
Hell yeah haha
Does this have Up down left right tongue tracking like the face tracker on the Vive?
Damn, great review, and don't take that as a bad thing, but you reminded me of Bruce from Family guy :')
Haha eh, I'll take it XD Thank you!
3:49 "Don’t put marbles in your nose Put them in there do not put them in there...."😅
Seriously though haha
great video.

Did you have to install any additional programs for the tracking?
Only the XRE streaming software, it handled receiving the face tracking data. So as long as you have their pc streaming program you should be good!
@@VirtualRook are you connected to the headset through wifi, or direct usb connection to the pc? i have the face tracker and have done the calibation and it detects it, but when trying to use it in vrchat with an avatar that supports vrcft nothing happens with enabling/disabling all the different options. i was under the impression that you needed to install a bunch of extra programs including running vive sranipal etc
Is it just me or are these headsets getting silly? They look outright stupid.
Oh, absolutely.
I kind of like how silly it is. VR glasses with a nose are like headphones with cat ears.
@@addygreen8919 That's so funny when you put it this way
Hello! Did you have to get any addtional software on pc to make the face tracking to work on vrhcat? I know a few other headset need this to passthrpough the data so vrchat can recognise it all.
Make sure you have the vive streaming hub installed, and I believe you need VRCFaceTracking. But that should be all you need to install
Saw some comments saying that the full face tracker narrows the field of view and blocks the mute icon in the lower left corner in vrchat?
Hello! I currently have this headset and it is extremely uncomfortable for me. The face gasket doesnt touch my face on the sides and all the pressure goes entirely on my nose and forehead. Does this seem to help make the xr elite more comfortable?

does it COME with full face and eye tracking? or do i have to buy something else?
You have to buy the add on
So to clarify, this only works on the PC version of VR chat? I thought I had read somewhere that Vive claimed that their face tracker should work natively on the XR elite’s Standalone version of vr chat, I can’t seem to get it to Work on the standalone version though…
It should work on the stand-alone version, I will check!
looks like it was almost immediately discontinued
Weirdly enough, it is still up, their site is just garbage and doesn't show it, but here is the page for it. business.vive.com/us/product/vive-full-face-tracker/
How about a microphone attachment
Yeah, that would be ideal haha
@@VirtualRook yeah. Like, I don't like supporting Meta but dear God until HTC uses a microphone newer than one found in a mid 90s cell phone, they are completely unusable.
how is the vive compared to rift s?
I sadly have never used the Rift S, but from what I hear Meta is not really supporting the Rift S, so I would steer clear of it. The Vive at least is still getting support, but the quality of their software is just "ok".... so It's up to you really.
Is there ever ganna be something like this for the quest 3? Like 3rd party of sum sort
hmmmm I only know about EyeTrackVR ua-cam.com/users/shortssqnIKYrtYnU
can i add this to the normal xr elite? or do i need the buisness version?
I believe I have the normal XR elite?
@@VirtualRookawesome, where did you pick up your facial tracker? i only see it on the buisness eu / es pages currently.
@@VirtualRookdid you get this off the EU buisness site? I really appriciate your video but i cant seem to find it anywhere T_T thanks for the information

Where can you buy this?
business.vive.com/us/product/vive-full-face-tracker/
But it looks like it is currently out of stock
Amazon has this as well
Htc always great. Sadly their product always have some flaws and they make solutions by making add-on.
Yeah, they can be a little bit of a let-down.... still, I'm just happy to have someone besides Meta making stand-alone headsets...
does xr elite hand tracking work in vrchat?
I believe so, but I would have to do some testing
@@VirtualRook Let us know!!!
Some things are better not to bro take this flag off, reject immorality

Please tell me this is called Cyrano
What does Cyrano mean? :o
