My setup:

  • 3x5 mm IR transmitting LED
  • Power supply voltage: 5 V
  • LED voltage drop: 1.3 V
  • LED current: 50 mA
  • 22 Ohm resistor

Assembly guide:

  1. Print a model
  2. Do some calculations. Using this LED array calculator I found that my setup requires a 22 Ohm resistor
  3. Solder everything according to the calculator's scheme
  4. Increase the infrared beam angle by filing each LED lens almost to the metal part. I used Dremel and 400-grade sandpaper for the matte finish
  5. Set LEDs into places. No glue is required. But you may use a drop of hot glue for each LED
  6. Attach the clip to the glasses with cable ties. I also used a heat shrink tube underlay to prevent scratches
  7. Set the model dimensions in your head tracking software as in the last photo
  8. All done!
