INITIALIZATION Please put the Glove/s and Trackbands on a flat surface and press the button on the side to turn on Avatar VR. After that, you will see the LED blinking in blue-green colour. Once this process is finished, the LED changes to blinking blue. When the LED becomes steady blue do not move anything and wait for 1 additional minute so gyroscopes calibration is completed. -
Page 13: Color Code
COLOR CODE Avatar VR has a LED indicator that shows the state by means of a color code: If it is red (except while switching on) it tells us there is a problem, whether in functioning, low battery (in this case, it flashes), or it has stayed in an undetermined state (remains steady red until the power is switched off and on). -
Page 14: Put The Glove On
PUT THE GLOVE ON Please be careful during handling as there is wiring inside the Avatar VR glove that needs to be placed correctly and not damaged. Start putting on the glove by gently looking for the finger holes while keeping a straight and steady hand and slowly introducing the glove on. - Page 15 Test the fit to make sure everything feels as natural as possible. Gestures like pinching or grabbing should feel natural while allowing the respective grey zones (conductive fabric) to make contact. AVATAR VR - QUICK START GUIDE...
