[[Tracking]] in Vive has no visible [[latency]]. The [[Tracking#Systems|tracking system]] employed by HTC Vive is called [[Lighthouse]]. While [[rotational tracking]] is achieved with [[IMUs]], [[positional tracking]] is accomplish with 2 IR base stations called [[Beacons]]. The Beacons would constantly flood the room with IR that are detected by sensors on the HMD and controllers. HMD and controllers would figure out where they are in relation to the Beacons ([[inside-out tracking]]). Vive's tracking is designed for both [[Seated VR|seated]],  [[standing VR|standing]] and most importantly [[Room-scale VR]] experiences.
