a right tracker worn on a right foot or right ankle of the participant;
a left tracker worn on a left foot or left ankle of the participant;
a communication network in communication with the left-hand controller and the right-hand controller and the right tracker and the left tracker and the motion capture suit and the motion capture unit;
and
a server computer in communication with the network that constructs a full body pose of the participant using real time data from only the right-hand controller and left-hand controller and right tracker and left tracker and HMD and from previously stored data about motion of the participant.
