Control SteamVR Lighthouses/Base Stations with an ESP32 via BLE!
Inspired by ShayBox's Lighthouse
Required Libraries:
JC_Button (wrote with v2.1.2, quick button debouncing and state machining)
NimBLE-Arduino (Wrote with v1.2.0, MUCH faster than stock BLE GATT)
If you have a V1 Base Station, you need to supply the ID from the back of the device in the sketch (src/main.cpp).
If you have V2, it should just work with all of them, but you can filter it to certain ones inside the sketch if you so wish.
Connect an LED to a pin to get info on if there was an issue during the command (if an error does happen, just try it again a couple times)
-
Just a couple slow-ish blinks: Success
-
Many fast blinks: Error, try again
If you're lazy and don't want platformio, just copy the contents of main.cpp into the Arduino IDE after installing the ESP32 platform (wrote with 1.0.5) and the libraries.
