===OSS Linux headtrack for FlightGear=== | |||
Developed by Ralph Glass and Meir Michanie. | |||
'''EasyHeadTrack''' is an Addon for '''Flightgear''' that allows you to use a simple webcam in order to track the pilot position in the x,y and z axis. | |||
'''EasyHeadTrack''' just works out of the box. | |||
* It is available for '''Linux'''. | |||
* Simple '''FlightGear''' interface. | |||
* Configurable within '''FlightGear'''. | |||
* Just works (no need to recalibrate when it looses track) | |||
* Only webcam required, face tracking with '''opencv''' without any markers | |||
* X,Y,Z axis supported | |||
* Not quite as sensible as marker based solutions but good enough, so no need to wear a funny hat ;-) | |||
'''EasyHeadTrack''' is available at [http://gitorious.org/headtrack] | |||
