Reduce Magnetism
For optimal tracking results, it is recommended you keep away from magnetic surfaces as this can cause significant errors in motion capture results. Furthermore, prolonged exposure to magnetic surfaces can cause the sensors magnetisation which will irreparably affect the sensors. Depending on the strength of the source it is recommended you stay between 10-100cms away from such sources. This also includes objects that can contain magnets which include but are not limited to:
- Computers, Keyboards & Mice
- Speakers
- Headphones
- Power boxes
- Generators or electrical motors
- Televisions
- Refrigerators

How to setup the Perception Neuron 32 suit
Step 1: Download the Appropriate Software
In order to use the suit, first you must download the legacy software “Perception Neuron 32”: Axis Studio.
Additionally, if you would like to use the suit directly in a Third Party software (e.g. Blender, Maya, Unity, Unreal Engine, etc) additional integration software will need to be installed. This can be done on Perception Neuron's website.
Step 2: Assemble and Strap on Suit
Connect gloves and/or other body parks using the connector pins and end the connection from the waist to the hub. The sensors should already be applied to most of the suit.
Step 3: Linking to the Computer
Option 1
Option 2
Step 5: Pack Down Suit
Upon completion of use, all equipment must be placed back in its appropriate bag. Each bag has an icon indicating what part of the suit goes into it.
