<t>I just noticed that the distances reported by Tracking Tools are not in millimetres as I expected, but are instead doubled. For example, the real distances between markers on the calibration square (found using a tape measure) are as follows:<br/> <br/> Origin to end of X axis: 300mm<br/> Origin ...

<t>Many thanks for the advice! I'll go ahead and order another two cameras, so that I have three in total.<br/> <br/> Could you possibly explain why it would be best to arrange the three cameras in an arc? Wouldn't placing them such that they form an equilateral triangle (each facing towards the cen...

<t>Thanks for the information. I don't currently have two cameras, but I can afford to buy another one. Will two Flex 13 cameras be sufficient for this application, or would there be any benefit in using three cameras instead? What kind of camera layout would you recommend for such an application wi...

I'm experiencing some issues with Tracking Tools (2.5.1) regarding noisy orientation data. I'm trying to track the position and orientation of a small wheeled robot, to which I've attached three reflective 3/4" markers, forming a triangle on top of it (not using a Rigid Body Base or Track Clip ...

Yeah, it's strange. VMware seems to be correctly forwarding all the USB devices, as the devices that show up under Device Manager in the virtual machine are identical to those on a native install.

I'm using Mac OSX 10.8.2 as my virtual host.

<t>Is it possible to use Tracking Tools in a virtual machine? I've installed it in a Windows 7 virtual machine using VMware Fusion, and it recognises the OptiTrack Hardware Key correctly, allowing me to license the software, but I then get the following error:<br/> <br/> "Flex 13 cameras must be con...

<t>We bought a single Flex 13 camera and an OptiHub, originally for use with the Camera SDK, and we would now like to purchase a license for Tracking Tools to perform single camera tracking.<br/> <br/> However, the technical specifications page states that the minimum number of cameras required for ...

<t>I have a single Flex 13 camera that I'd like to use to track the position and orientation of some simple ground-based robots. The camera will be mounted on a microphone stand, providing an overhead view of the robots, since I'm only interested in capturing 2D tracking data.<br/> <br/> I plan to u...

Hi Mike,

I fixed this simply by reinstalling the Camera SDK. I'm not sure why the drivers failed to install the first time around, but everything works now

Thanks

<t>I've purchased a single OptiHub 2 and Flex 13 camera for use with the OptiTrack Camera SDK. When I connect the OptiHub (with or without the camera connected) Windows complains that it's unable to find drivers for it. In Device Manager the OptiHub shows up as a Generic USB Hub and an Unknown Devic...
