More than a few years ago, I made my first Slimes; it was a bit of a rollercoaster. It involved a lot of printer calibration, endless hours of soldering, and a bit of a learning curve with electrical components. I made a (I’d say decent) tutorial video on the project and released it to my YouTube channel! The video garnered about 74k views, which was quite surprising.
These trackers have long since been retired (I actually ended up gifting them to a friend), but I recently made some new ones. I hope to cover another tutorial for them and showcase the process of the newer “Smol” design that the Slime team and fellow Slimers have perfected.

As you can tell if you watched the video, these Slimes came out much smaller! And with better IMUs, the drift time is substantially better. The smaller design also means way better comfort.
I of course was way too excited to document the process of building these bad boys, but the Boyfriend wants to ditch his vives so I have more IMUs inbound for a new tutorial video!
