Yes! I just started having this issue a few days ago, any luck as to the reason why?

Jeeeezzz! How confusing was that? I found the gear hidden in the gloves! It did not say anything about an extra handgear for the Noiton when you only use 11 or 18 Neurons! Ok! Everything is fine now! :-)

BUMMER! I am so frustrated! I just got my Suite delivered after only 6 days. Unpacked and... missing the gear for the arms!!! Instead I got an extra pair of gloves inside the "arm gear" bag! I am just more than frustrated right now! :-(

Marcus, thank you sooo much for your help! I guess I will contact you some day. You have so much experience and I have so many questions! As I told you a few days ago, I bought the suit just for fun, for my Hobby. I love playing around with 3D so much, that I would like maybe one day to start a Business with it. But just don't know where to start with it. Would be great to make my Hobby to a Job. Who knows, maybe one day... :-)

Funny! I just came back with this app on my phone and you are talking about it! :-) Well, it showes mostly around 50-52 µtesla, no matter where I go in the room. Is that ok? I hope so! :-)

That's really fine.
Noitom says all values under 1500 µT are okay.
There is always magnetism around us: planet earth . . .  ;-)
So there is a basic magnetic "noise" which is no big problem.
But keep the sensors in the anti-magnetic box if not in use because permanent exposure to magnetic fields will cause them to drift and you have to calibrate each sensor . . .
Or use the new Noitom shielded suitcase   ;-)

Hi !
Having only SSD eliminates the main source for magnetic fields in your computer. So that's fine.
You don't need to buy an expensive teslameter.
But if you have a smartphone just get an app for measurement. That is precise enough to make sure where to use the suit.
The app uses the build in magnetometer . . .
For Android and IOS you can get a teslameter app (most are even free !). Simply search for "teslameter app"...

Avoid old CRT TV sets, loudspeakers, refrigerators, power supply and steel  . . .
New displays should be fine . . .
But check with the app yourself what makes trouble . . .  ;-)

Hey Marcus! I only have SSD's in my Computers, so I should be ok with that. I don't own a teslameter, I don't know if it would make sence sice I don't really have Option to escape from certaim rooms. A TV in standby or a Radio, are they magnetic fields as well? Probably yes, ha? There is not much in the room I use, besides of a few Computers, a TV and a Surround System... but still, they could be a Problem I guess. Well, not that I Need to make Long recordings or perfect stuff, but better be sure. ;)

Hi Mr.Perfect !

Great you have your Perception Neuron suit soon !
Yes - magnetic fields are to avoid.
A notebook with a hard drive can cause a strong magnetic field and will interfere. SSD drives don't make trouble.
Use a mouse and not the touch pad and stay away from the computer if possible.
Any steel in buildings or furniture causes magnetic fields as well so this is also an issue for successful calibration.
With a teslameter app you can test environments and see where it is good to calibrate and capture.
If you are at least one meter away from a magnetic source it should be okay for the IMUs of your suit.
Drift adds over time so after a successful calibration simply use the Zero function with an A-Pose in Axis close to recording.
But first of all - with your new suit- take your time fixing the sensors properly and secure (so they can't move) and be patient to calibrate well  ;-)

Marcus

Hello folks! I have a question. I am expecting my Neuron suite to be delivered tomorrow. Just to make sure I don't make mistakes, it says to keep everything away from magnetic sources... How far away? By example, if I have it connected to my notebook or computer, in order to start recording, I have to get close to them. Will they interfere? Any experience to share? Thanks!
