Hello
I have prepared the microcontroller correctly calibrated the gyro and uploaded the firmware to it, as far as I can tell everthing should be working. However steam VR doesn't recoginize the microcontorller as a headset: (see attached image)

I have coppied the driver files, and made the necessarry changes.

In the web console I found the following:

WaitNamedPipe SteamVR_Namespace failed because no one is listening at that name.
CSharedResourceNamespaceClient::Init(): failed connect
CSharedResourceNamespaceClient::Init(): still waiting for vrserver to reply with namespace data
[vrserver] watchdogs enabled
CSharedResourceNamespaceServer starting up

Unfortunatelly this didn't tell me what the issue was. I have reinstalled steam VR once.

I'm quite stuck since I don't know what could be the issue. Thanks for the help in advance!
