Rechargeable TrackIR transmitter. Supports touching the bed for the main unit.  The unit is modelled  for the right side, I mirror it as I prefer it on the left left. 

Uses a dovetail to connect the main unit to something that you can stick on your head. Included files will attach to an AKG headset, a generic connector that can be affixed to something that can be put on your head and if you dent like headsets there is a headband. Cover snaps in place and has a hole to see the charging indicator.  Red for charging, blue or green for charged depending on the board.

I took influence from several other people on Thingiverse making various versions of this type of transmitter.

General rechargeable concept from here but decided on a parallel wiring for simplicity
