Description
This research integrates a complete diving mask with a custom-made VR headset to replicate a space-like setting. Alongside designing and building a waterproof VR headset, a pivotal aspect involves implementing a tracking system to ascertain spatial positioning and orientation. Employing an external tracking system, comprising four cameras housed underwater and affixed to aluminum rails this is achieved using fiducial markers.
