Inverted Camera Calibration

Post by jspencer46 »

I find it most convenient to mount my TrackIR Pro camera inverted. I am using TrackIR 5 software and cannot figure out how to set it up for this situation, if it is indeed possible. With the camera inverted, the software interprets head yaw (horizontal plane view rotation) as head roll. I have tried Mirroring and inverting the different axes and rotations, but can't find the combination that reverses the mis-orientation. What settings will correct this?

Unfortunately, we didn't have time to get camera rotation into the new 5.0 software. It'll come in 5.1, but that release schedule is not yet determined, so I can't say long you'll have to wait. In the mean time, you can use the Version 4.1.037 - Final B install, which supports both TrackIR 5 hardware and camera rotation.
