Utilizing vive_ros without VR headset #25

Open closest-num-2-0 opened 4 years ago

Is it possible to use this repo without a vr headset or controllers. We want to purchase a vive tracker and four Vive 2.0 light houses to be able to localize an object.

Sorry, I have not got the 2.0 or tested it with this repo.

I know there are several way to boot steamVR without HMD, but I have not tried yet... (https://steamcommunity.com/app/358720/discussions/0/133258593389126485/) (https://github.com/moon-wreckers/vive_tracker)

Anyway, the first concern would be the OpenVR and vive_ros works fine or not with the normal 2.0 HMD set, and next, it works without HMD or not.
