After causing many spills while fumbling around in VR trying to locate my drink, I thought I'd put the Vive tracker to some proper use.
Use this adapter to attach an HTC Vive tracker to a beer bottle and use the Beer Finder mod to visualize your drink whilst in VR.
*The [HTC Vive Tracker Band Adapter](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2213567) by TsubokuLab was used as a reference design and it should work fine too if you already have one.*
**Beer Finder mod**:
The zipped files replaces the ugly HTC tracker mesh with that of a beer bottle with the correct offset and orientation to mimic your real bottle when attached to the tracker. The bottle appears when you press the steamvr system button so you don't need to leave VR to find your drink. *Beer stein option also included*.
For best results, use a long neck 355 mL or 12 ounce bottle and position the tracker near the bottom of the bottle not in the middle. I've also used a water bottle of similar height without incident.
