DualShock 4 and Move Controller Tracking Issues

Much like the PSVR headset itself, your DualShock 4 or Move controllers are both read by your camera thanks to the handy glowing lights that they emit. While players have had fewer issues with tracking issues when using their controllers as opposed to the headset itself, they are still present. In order to resolve this, you’ll want to take the same precautions that you do for the headset tracking. Move any reflective surfaces out of the view of the camera and ensure that any bright lights are turned off.

However, if you’re charging your DualShock 4 as you play, you may want to make sure that the charge cable isn’t in the way of the light bar. Depending on how you hold it, this can obstruct the light bar and make it difficult for your camera to read. If the problem continues, try turning up the brightness of the light bar on the back of your controller. It’ll use more battery but should resolve any issues. Alternatively, try charging the batteries of your Move controllers. The lower the battery, the worse the experience becomes. Sony advises you keep your controllers charged up as much as possible to enjoy an optimal experience.
