Using ML2 in lying position

Hardware Troubleshooting
1

Dear community,

I am currently using the ML2 system in a supine (lying) position setup, specifically within a radiology scanner that has a relatively small bore. I’ve encountered two issues:

  1. The main menu only appears in the horizontal region, which limits visibility and interaction when the subject is lying down.
  2. The system frequently loses tracking in this configuration. In this case, I don’t actually care the world camera.

Is there a recommended configuration or adjustment to improve menu placement and tracking stability in the supine position, particularly within a constrained scanner environment?

I appreciate your guidance and thank you in advance for your help.

Hi @wangzipai96 currently we do not support this use case. We do not support disabling tracking on the headset so the headset must be able to position itself in the world at all times. Since the world cameras that track the environment are mounted at the front and sides of the headset. The challenge is trying to track the user’s movement as they lay down on the ground facing a mostly featureless/ textureless surface.

While this functionality is not on our roadmap, I have submitted your feedback to our voice of customer team.
