Same, but mine don't have an extension so you have to be tall enough to reach them, but here's a link for anyone interested.
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CWNMB86
I had a ton of problems trying to use an adapter from HDMI to Displayport. I would have to reset my computer and then after I booted up I could MAYBE get the Vive to work, but if I did anything other than immediately start up steam and the Vive, it wouldn't work at all.
The base stations don't need to be close to the PC to work, nor does the rest of the Vive. I've got my Vive on a 15 foot extension between the PC and the link box: 15 foot USB 3.0 cables, 15 foot mini DP to DP cable, and everything works fine for me.
So if your video card only has Displayport, then what you need to get is a mini displayport to displayport cable like this one. If you don't need 15 feet, get one smaller.
The mini DP port on the link box is the small square Between the HDMI and USB ports.
There's actually a View Master VR HMD that was released a couple years ago. It was basically just another GearVR knock-off, but themed to look like a View Master.
https://www.amazon.com/Mattel-DTH61-View-Master-Deluxe-Viewer/dp/B01CNSO79Q
And if you don't want to drill holes in your walls, buy some of these . I have my lighthouses attached to these and they're perfect. I didn't want to drill the walls as we're in rented accommodation and I also don't trust my DIY skills.
If I were in your situation, I would try out a dell visor for $250 and wait for a vive pro or other future headset depending on how I liked the windows platform (It can still use steamvr to my knowledge).
edit: or this one. There are some cheap options if you're willing to try the windows thing.
basically what I am saying is that:
Cost of HMD with 8 inch 3000 PPI Display > Cost of HMD with 7 inch 300 PPI display + 1 inch 3000 PPI Display + Motorized Parts
I think you are underestimating how expensive pixels are.
A cheap 1080p TV can go for <$100 new, a cheap 4K TV (~4x the pixels) can go for maybe $500 ish new.

These or these work really well, pair with two camera clamps like these, and you're good to go. (I use the Harbor Freight ones, but both should be fine)
&#x200B;
Pro-tip: Point the ratcheting portion down so you're pushing the main pole up, this maximizes base station height, and minimizes vibration.
Theater room can be a vr space as well, just buy a 50ft hdmi cable!
As my electrical outlets are located behind furniture, I decided to get some remote outlet switches to turn of my base stations. Works quite well.

Buttkickers? Haven't tried with racing sims yet, just using as a subwoofer alternative and its incredible, gives a placebo effect that a sub is playing while everyone around is asleep and vibrations really immerses you in music. Setting up was just disconnecting wires from a sub and connecting to buttkicker, other one runs on the second sub output my amp has. Im using these .

Cool design, if the floor really is the only place you can put them.
I'd recommend a camera mount and some adhesive strips. No mess, and can be removed anytime and re-mounted elsewhere if needed.
