How TrackIR Works

Moving Your Head Changes the View

As you move in your chair and rotate your head small amounts, your game-view will precisely correspond. You never have to look away from the monitor because all aspects of your motion are amplified and adjustable.

Six Degrees of Freedom

There are only 6 ways you can move around in 3D space. There are 3 ways to lean and 3 ways to rotate. The technical term for all of these movements is "6 Degrees of Freedom" (or "6DOF"). True 6DOF support is one of the main things that put TrackIR well ahead of any other input device.

TrackIR Enhanced Mode

When a game developer builds support for TrackIR directly into the code for their game, we call that game "TrackIR Enhanced". TrackIR is a new form of input that doesn't affect the mouse, keyboard and joysticks you are already using. Those other inputs are now freed to do the things you'd expect your hands to be doing, completely independent of your new head-tracking view controller.

3D From a Flat Screen

This whole experience is commonly called a "VR fish tank" method (as opposed to the "VR Goggles" experience you may have seen in movies), because you don't have to wear any sort of headset or hardware. Everything is handled using advanced motion capture techniques. The point of TrackIR is to make controlling your game's v
