The trackir five pro camera
For these who do not know what TrackIR or headtracking in general is. Headtracking is the use of a
combination of hardware and software program to convert real life head movements into in-game
camera movements on the Pc.
The TrackIR 5 is basically an infrared (IR) sensor that allows for you to move your in-game camera
with all-natural head movements. The camera does not function and in fact will not even turn on till
you have the Trackir five software installed and really running on your desktop. TrackIR software
program is used to access and control the camera, as nicely as adjust tracking and manage game
profiles.
The TrackIR camera is an optical capture device like any consumer camera, it is nevertheless
distinguished by its monochrome sensor, infrared filter and dedicated image processing chip.
TrackIR software program is used to access and manage the camera, as nicely as adjust tracking and
manage game profiles. Trackir 5 does this by utilizing a higher speed infrared camera that is
positioned on leading of your monitor, whilst you put on a 3 pronged LED tracking clip on a hat or
mounted on your headset.
The unit comes in a clam shell package and you get just the Trackir 5 camera and the reflective 3
prong attachment. If you want to appear below the yoke to see your light switches than you merely
make the essential head movements and Trackir five will translate that into a virtual camera
movement in your game, in reality such a movement is not even feasible using a simple eight way
hat switch.
TrackIR five features a good magnetic connector in between the camera and mounting bracket, so
accidently pulling the wire won't break the thing so easily.
The initial step is to get the camera and the head-mounted unit (headset-mounted TrackClip PRO or
ballcap-mounted passive reflectors) aligned properly so that the signal from the head unit is visible
to the camera all through the user's physical trackir 5 pro with proclip head motion variety.
The second step is the TrackClip Pro, an active unit that clips onto the left-hand side of your gaming
headset and communicates with the camera and pc via USB.
Just download the newest software from the TrackIR website, plug in your TrackIR camera, place
the Track Clip on a cap of your choice and fire up the TrackIR software program. Most TrackIR
cameras work with the OptiTrack SDK and the latest 64bit drivers but not the latest TrackIR
software program (TrackIR two and SmartNav 1 are disabled in the driver INF file).
Alternatively, you could put your TrackIR camera a lot greater than your head and face it down.
Using all-natural head movements to manage camera movement increases immersion, and improved
immersion indicates you are most likely to perform much better whilst playing.
