I think you are proposing a solution that has no reality with the political situation that the company finds itself with Valve/HTC - there is no way we are going to see any support for a Lighthouse to be used with the Rift (beyond a DIY project with no company sanction or software support).

Again this is a solved problem. You can use a single Lighthouse transmitter as a front facing 'camera' above the monitor, if you only want seated experiences same as the one camera Rift setup.

Okay, first off I am not getting into the "is one better than the other" argument - that is so subjective, and usually used as a means for "supporters" to attack each other - I am focused on discussing the thought behind the business positioning and the decisions that need to be made to get a company that is seen by some as toxic back on track to support the community.

With 3 sensors we should still be able to have room tracking...
As far as room scale goes - it kind of is a dead end...
Right, so is lighthouse better than Constellation?...

This is a solved problem. Within the limits of current VR technology the Lighthouse system just works, and is A LOT easier to setup then running USB extension cables and battling driver and USB compatibility issues.
Not to mention it is available to be used by anyone not limited by some in house commercial agenda.

What standard cabling are you using, what materials are used in the connectors?
