=== LinuxTrack headtracking software === | |||
[http://code.google.com/p/linux-track/ LinuxTrack] is an open source project that allows Linux and Mac users to use head tracking. It aims to support webcams, wiimote and TrackIR 4/5 for this purpose. Features include: | |||
* GUI for configuration and testing | |||
* Profiles for storing multiple configuration settings | |||
* Runs on Linux and Mac (both 32 and 64 bit) | |||
* Fast and precise tracking | |||
* Output data can be used locally or sent to network | |||
Recently a FlightGear support was added. At this time it was tested | |||
to work with FlightGear versions 1.9.1, 2.0 and from GIT. Instructions on how | |||
to run LinuxTrack with FlightGear are available in the README.ltr_pipe file located | |||
in the "doc" directory of the project's source tree. Source code is available from svn repository: | |||
<pre>svn checkout http://linux-track.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ linux-track-read-only</pre> | |||
