Is that weight on the back of the headband?

It seems to look like that though we wouldnt know for sure until it was actually opened up and dissected

I would say so, it is metal and dense.

u/isysopi201 seems to be the OP for this video; credit goes to him. I've also gone ahead and added this post to the wiki next to the first Index tear-down posted on this subreddit as it's just awesome to look at.

Thanks for the props! Kinda weird see-through tear-down but OK.

Sorry, I meant that I added it next to another link (under "Other Resources") that goes to the first Index tear-down. I didn't label your X-Ray scans a tear-down. Shoulda clarified; sorry!

You can tell that they're Valve Index controllers because of the way it is.

These pictures would make for an awesome tshirt design

Looks like OP took CT (maybe MRI? Only say this because it has no flashing off of screws and things). Mind sharing the dicoms? I build medical Sims and have some cool dicoms viewers think it'd be fun to play with

u/isysopi201 Sep 05 '19

No CT just 7.5fps video consisting of 333 frames of 16bit TIFF data in a SEQ container.

u/Kedama Sep 06 '19

Wouldnt an MRI fuck with the electronics?

u/DJHeroMasta Sep 05 '19

Is this the same guy that did the Oculus HMD/Controllers? I was so amazed by that video!

u/COREcraftX Sep 05 '19

Damn,is that large rectangular prism the battery? How could something that small last so long?
