Sensitivity Enhancement Request
Posted: Thu Sep 15, 2005 12:45 am
First I'd like to thank all at NaturalPoint for developing such a great piece of hardware in TrackIR. I had TrackIR 2 for a year and just recently purchased TrackIR 3 Pro with Vector Support. I'm definitely one satisfied customer!
I would like to help make this great product even better by offering a suggestion that would improve the Vector support usage in simulations that take advantage of the Z axis for zooming (ie Lockon).
When zooming in the view by leaning forward and looking at small details (instrument text, targets) the pitch and yaw sensitivity should be reduced so you don't have to be overly still to keep focus on your view object. If a sensitivity slider could be added to the control software for pitch and yaw that was driven by the position of another axis (Z for example) I think you could make this software/hardware perfect, complete immersion without a thought to the hardware strapped to your head.
If this capability is already in the software and I have overlooked it I apologize. Note that I am not referring to "Precision" mode, I'm looking for something that varies with zoom level and don't want to hit a key to activate a desensitizing mode (it should all be seemless and automatic).
Regards,
Mike
