I don't know what you've done wrong but I have something like 12 feetx 12 feet with one sensor. Huge tracking area. If your hand would be outside tracking area you've done something wrong. One sensor will track both controllers in a front facing position just fine. The reason for two sensors is for occlusion angles.

That's impossible. If you are sitting at your desk with a camera on that desk, it won't have a 12 foot viewing area, and will be very easy for you to move your hands out of its view. The camera view is conical - the further you are away from it, the larger its view. Thus my recommendation that the OP move their camera further away.

I didn't realize the key to what you were saying was "on your desk" hehe.
Ya...having the sensor on a speaker stand or on a camera mount, on the wall is better. Five feet to seven feet or so up is best. On your desk is complete poop. I learned that pretty quick.

You got your facts mixed up. They recommend you set it up 3-4 feet away. As opposed to closer than that. We all know when wobble happens.Not really relevant here. Putting your sensor higher up vastly increases tracking space. I'm sorry but you're kind of arguing common knowledge. Anyone serious about their set up has their sensor/s not on their desk, but on a book shelf, the wall or even ceiling upside down.

Oculus only supports the sensor at a distance of 3ft from the HMD.
