Sixense, the company behind the much beleaguered motion control system STEM, have released what they term ‘positive’ results from their latest round of EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) testing.

The STEM system from Razer Hydra creators Sixense, having been successfully Kickstarted back in 2013, is still yet to ship to original backers. However, hot on the heels of the company’s last update, Sixense have released their latest EMC test results which seem to indicate the company is edging closer to full FCC compliance and therefore able to sell the motion control system on the open market.

All in all, except for some moderately expected, and easily corrected, issues, the results turned out to be quite positive. We fully expect that we will be able to fix the failures on the new layout of the boards and meet the timeline of the next milestone, per the schedule presented in the previous update

The company included a summary of their latest test results:
