Complete
The PST is a complete tracking system and consist of the tracking unit, a starter set of markers, a pre trained 3D interaction device, the software, and a manual.
Fast accurate tracking
The PST uses uses tangible, wireless interaction devices for 3D interaction. These devices are tracked using a sophisticated optical tracking system. The position and orientation (pose) of the devices are reconstructed 60 times per second, and with sub-millimeter accuracy.
Normal lighting conditions
The optical tracking is based on infrared lighting, reducing interference of visible light sources from the environment. This allows the PST to be used under normal office working conditions, without requiring controlled lighting.
Mark train and interact ... with almost anything
Transform arbitrary objects like cubes, pens, helmets, bodyparts, glasses and tennis rackets into tracked objects. Both active and passive markers can be used. One marker gives you 3 degrees of freedom, while 4+ markers gives you 6 Degrees of freedom. Furthermore you can track at least 15 different devices using the Personal space tracker. Training a new device is done in seconds.
Tracking software
The PST comes with an easy to use tracker application. This application is used for new device training, managing devices, referencing and linking applications.
The Tracker unit itself is taking care of the actual tracking calculations. Using the PST therefore has minimal impact on the computing power of the system on which you run your applications.
You can import the tracking data using the standard interface VRPN or using our SDK that allows you to import the tracking data direct in your application.
