Okay, we asked nicely twice, but the components still won't budge—time for some aggressive negotiations.
The Constellation's lone eye seems to stare pleadingly. Let's hope it doesn't start singing "Daisy Bell."
We shuck the (well-rotary-tooled) outer casing and find an inner shell secured with some fiercely-glued screws.
Whipping that away in short order, all that's left are the real guts of this sensor.
Teardown Update: Whoops! According to Oculus, you can shuck the IR sensor's cowling by pulling the stand hardware off. When we got our second unit we took some channellocks and a vice grip to it and were able to free the hardware from the camera assembly.
Still, some disassembly instructions would have been nice!
