More on the INPVector2

[niallm]

Hi,
Looks like some exciting stuff is on the horizon.
However I've still got to deal with the OptiTrack Flex3 and it's SDK. I've been working with the INPVector2 routines. Are the values returned by INPVector no longer valid after modifying the dist0, dist1, dist12 and distol properties?
If so is there a way to get the yaw,pitch and roll from INPVector2 for the new clip without having to do it manually? I've asked this one before: Does the algorithim depend on the shape? IE the top point is X mms behind the two forward points.

I believe the 6DOF values returned by INPVector2 will continue to be valid after modifications have been made to the proportional distances of the Vector Clip markers. You should be able to read out the Yaw, Pitch and Roll values as from INPVector, but you will need to keep in mind that they will be offset just as with the INPVector values.

The algorithm does depend on knowing the shape in order to derive the 6DOF location of the Clip, the distXX values control the expected shape that it is looking for. Think of the 3 markers as being in a plane.
