Hey,
I just actually tested this myself during the past weekend and I can confirm that it does work.
However, one thing I noticed straight away is that if you put down your Quest (which isn’t really comfortable to keep on your head while developing) the Quest goes into sleep mode then if you put it on again it will have to re-recognise the room and sometimes it will fail and tell you the tracking is lost. The only way to recover then it’s literally restarting the Quest which isn’t ideal. Now I think that as long as you don’t allow it to go into sleep mode then it should be fine, so covering the sensor on the headset with some tape should fix that. Didn’t test it though.
I can’t really tell you if that would be a solution as clearly it works but it’s in beta so who knows what kind of behaviour you’ll see that maybe doesn’t match what will happen on a Rift/Rift S.
I will try covering the sensor and report back
