Self-centering 3-DOF feet controller for hands-free locomotion control in telepresence and virtual reality
This repository hosts the model files for a mostly 3D printed hands-free locomotion controller.
To assemble you require:
- 50x70x14 mm thrust bearing (1)
- Tension springs 6.3x22.5 mm (diameter, length) (multiple, we used 10)
- Tension springs 5.5x20.2 mm (diameter, length) (4)
- rounded furniture roller plate (should be replaceble by custom wooden or aluminum plate)
- Multiple M4 hooks to fix the springs
- M8 (maybe M6) bolt and nut to fix the rotational axis
The ball joint top and bottom snap fit into each other (use a little lubricant). The thrust bearing fits in the rotational joint. This joint should be fixed by a bolt and a nut to counter. Tension springs can be installed depeding on your requirements.
The files can also be found on Printables
