Detailed Inventory and Wireless or Wired Controllers
The setup guide also reveals the full inventory of the HTC Vive Developer Edition kit which actually has a surprising number of pieces, including versatile mounting hardware for the Lighthouse base stations.
Step 13 notes that the “Included hardware allows basestations to be mounted to walls, ceilings, shelves or directly to a standard tripod. A braced floor to ceiling pole is also a good alternative.”
Later in the guide, in Steps 23 and 24, we can see that the wireless controllers can be converted to wired controllers by inserting the included USB adapter boards into each controller and plugging in with a Micro USB cable.
Last But Not Least…
