ICM-45686 - AUX Extension: Hip

➕ Cave Slimes ICM – AUX Extension: Waist

Want to add waist and hip tracking at a fraction of the cost of a standalone wireless tracker? This AUX extension is a lightweight sensor module that connects via cable to your existing Cave Slimes main unit (e.g., on your chest). You get smooth tracking of your core, natural sitting posture, and spine bending without needing to charge another battery.

• ✅ Cost-Effective Solution: Leverages the battery and Wi-Fi transmission of your existing main unit to significantly lower the purchase price.
• ✅ Long Waist Strap: Comfortable elastic strap with a wide adjustment range for a secure fit around the waist.
• ✅ Fluid Torso Tracking: Prevents unnatural avatar deformation during sitting, crouching, and dancing in VR.
