Re: Banding when using multiple TrackIR cameras

quote:... and it is still possible to process the objects detected in that frame even when it is not rendered.Unfortunately that does not seem to be the case. Objects are detected as if the banding was part of the original image - generally resulting in a lot of wide boxes.

Re: Crash when reading frame information too quic

I had not. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try that instead.

Very high overhead in multithreaded applicati

<t>We are using a TrackIR4 with the OptiTrack SDK.<br/> When calling OptiTrack API functions from a multithreaded application (COINIT_MULTITHREADED), there is an enormous overhead for every call. So large that we've been forced to write a single-threaded application to talk to control the camera and...

Crash when reading frame information too quic

<t>I am using a TrackIR4 camera with the OptiTrack SDK. When tracking information is read back at unhindered speed (can be tested by simply reading a frame and the first tracked object in it), the application eventually crashes inside an OptiTrack API call. This always happens for me, but the time i...

Banding when using multiple TrackIR cameras

We have been using the OptiTrack API with a TrackIR4 camera, and recently added a second camera to the setup. Unfortunately this seems to be causing problems. The framebuffer of one of the cameras frequently but not always show heavy banding. Example: http://viskom.se/stripes.png This only happens w...

Re: Image buffer access

<t>OT: Well... that didn't work. Apparently the reported object position, width, and height can't be used to construct a proper bounding box (and for some reason the dimensions are badly skewed for objects near the right edge of the image, making small square objects appear to have aspect ratios in ...

Re: Image buffer access

<t>We intend to use a camera to do 3D head tracking from a set of markers on the user's glasses as well as a form of touch-screen-like interaction on a horizontal display.<br/> EDIT: Using one camera per user, but with multiple users.<br/> <br/> At the moment I am using the video feed by having the ...

Image buffer access

<t>I'd just like to second rel_21's request for access to the frame buffer. I find the lack of this function very strange, especially considering the FAQ's stressing that this is a development platform and that the users should write their own tracking algorithms. How are we supposed to do that with...
