Tracking constellation assembly for use in a virtual reality system
First Claim
1. A tracking constellation assembly for use in a virtual reality system, comprising:
- a translucent panel having an outward facing surface, and an inward facing surface and a mounting surface each opposite the outward facing surface;
a circuit board including first and second opposed surfaces, wherein the first surface is connected to the mounting surface of the translucent panel; and
at least one light emitting diode connected to the circuit board and positioned to direct light through the translucent panel and project a substantially round point of light from the outward facing surface;
wherein at least a portion of the inward facing surface has a first surface finish and at least a portion of the outward facing surface has a second surface finish having roughness different than the first surface finish.

Abstract
Technology is provided for a tracking constellation assembly for use in a virtual reality system. The tracking constellation assembly includes a translucent panel having an outward facing surface, and an inward facing surface and a mounting surface each opposite the outward facing surface. The translucent panel is substantially opaque to visible light and translucent to infrared light. The assembly includes a flexible circuit board including first and second opposed surfaces. A spacer interconnects the first surface of the flexible circuit board and the mounting surface of the translucent panel. Infrared light emitting diodes are connected to the flexible circuit board and positioned to direct light through the translucent panel.
