HTC Vive Controller Bumpers

prusaprinters

<p>These bumpers for the the HTC Vive controllers were made in an effort to reduce damage when they are struck against a surface. Ideally, these bumpers should break from impact before the controllers themselves do. The two separate halves can be joined together by a single screw and nut. Using a winged nut helps speed up assembly and disassembly if you are having to regularly replace these.</p><p>This model was built from the ground up in Fusion 360, but is based on the design by <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/Kf52t/about">Kf52t</a> on Thingiverse. It appears their account no longer exists. However, I feel it's necessary to give credit where credit is due for the original design.</p><p>Unfortunately, I no longer posses the original CAD models, so I can only offer the .stl files for printing. However, I encourage everyone to iterate on this design if you feel there are improvements that could be made.&nbsp;</p>
