Multi Dot Tracking

Post by DrakeWoodring »

Reading through the api docs, its hard to tell if the API can handle multiple dots.

I'm considering using this to handle a multi input touchscreen. But need the API to handle as many dots as possible.

Is there any limitations I should be looking at?

Here is some information from the FAQ

21. How many 'objects' (i.e. markers) is the OptiTrack system capable of detecting?

The number of markers that the OptiTrack is capable of tracking depends on the size of the markers and the distance they are from the camera. At a distance of four feet, the FLEX:C120 can track at least 40 half-inch markers and the V100 cameras can track at least 80 half-inch markers.
