base on Head tracking software for MS Windows, Linux, and Apple OSX [<img src="https://github.com/opentrack/opentrack/actions/workflows/cmake.yml/badge.svg">](https://github.com/opentrack/opentrack/actions/workflows/cmake.yml) ## Intro opentrack is a program for tracking user's head rotation and transmitting it to flight simulation software and military-themed video games. Project home is located at <<https://github.com/opentrack/opentrack>>. Looking for **railway planning software**? <<https://opentrack.ch>> had the name `opentrack` first. Apologies for the long-standing naming conflict. For the latest **downloads** visit <<https://github.com/opentrack/opentrack/releases>> Download an `.exe` installer or a `.7z` archive. Currently installers and portable versions for Windows are available for each release. It supports [USB stick truly "portable" installations](https://github.com/opentrack/opentrack/wiki/portable-mode-for-USB-sticks) Please first refer to <<https://github.com/opentrack/opentrack/wiki>> for [new user guide](https://github.com/opentrack/opentrack/wiki/Quick-Start-Guide-(WIP)), [frequent answers](https://github.com/opentrack/opentrack/wiki/common-issues), specific tracker/filter documentation. See also the [gameplay video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XI73ul_FnBI) with opentrack set up. ## Usage `opentrack` is an application dedicated to tracking user's head movements and relaying the information to games and flight simulation software. `opentrack` allows for output shaping, filtering, and operating with many input and output devices and protocols; the codebase runs Microsoft Windows, Apple OSX (currently unmaintained), and GNU/Linux. Don't be afraid to submit an **issue/feature request** if you have any problems! We're a friendly bunch. ## Tracking input - PointTracker by Patrick Ruoff, FreeTrack-like light points - Oculus Rift (Windows only) - Paper [marker](https://github.com/opentrack/opentrack/wiki/Aruco-tracker) via the Aruco^{[[1](https://github.com/opentrack/aruco)]} library - Razer Hydra - Relaying via UDP from a different computer - Relaying UDP via the FreePIE^{[[1](https://andersmalmgren.github.io/FreePIE/)]} Android [apps](https://github.com/opentrack/opentrack/tree/master/contrib/freepie-udp) - Joystick analog axes (Windows) - Windows Phone [tracker](https://github.com/ZanderAdam/OpenTrack.WindowsPhone/wiki) over opentrack UDP protocol - Arduino with custom Hatire firmware - Intel RealSense 3D camera (Windows) - BBC micro:bit, LEGO, sensortag support via Smalltalk^{[(1)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smalltalk)[(2)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Kay)} [S2Bot](https://www.picaxe.com/Teaching/Other-Software/Scratch-Helper-Apps/) - Wiimote (Windows) - NeuralNet face tracker - Eyeware Beam^{[[1](https://beam.eyeware.tech/)]} - Tobii eye tracker ## Output protocols - SimConnect for newer Microsoft Flight Simulator (Windows) - freetrack implementation (Windows) - Relaying UDP to another computer - Virtual joystick output (Windows, Linux, OSX) - Wine freetrack glue protocol (Linux, OSX) - X-Plane plugin (Linux; uses the Wine output option) - Tablet-like mouse output (Windows) - FlightGear - FSUIPC for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002/2004 (Windows) - SteamVR through a bridge (Windows; see <<https://github.com/r57zone/OpenVR-OpenTrack>> by @r57zone) ## Credits, in chronological order - Stanisław Halik (maintainer) - Wim Vriend -- author of [FaceTrackNoIR](https://facetracknoir.sourceforge.net/) that served as the initial codebase for `opentrack`.

To edit the wiki, send pull requests to the [opentrack/wiki](https://github.com/opentrack/wiki) repository. The [user-facing wiki](https://github.com/opentrack/opentrack/wiki) will automatically update itself once the commit is merged. ## License and warranty Almost all code is licensed under the [ISC license](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISC_license). There are very few proprietary dependencies. There is no copyleft code. See individual files for licensing and authorship information. See [WARRANTY.txt](WARRANTY.txt) for applying warranty terms (that is, disclaiming possible pre-existing warranty) that are in force unless the software author specifies their own warranty terms. In short, we disclaim all possible warranty and aren't responsible for any possible damage or losses. The code is held to a high-quality standard and written with utmost care; consider this a promise without legal value. Despite doing the best we can not to injure users' equipment, software developers don't want to be dragged to courts for imagined or real issues. Disclaiming warranty is a standard practice in the field, even for expensive software like operating systems. ## Building opentrack from source On Windows, use either mingw-w64 or MS Visual Studio 2015 Update 3/newer. On other platforms use GNU or LLVM. Refer to [Visual C++ 2015 build instructions](https://github.com/opentrack/opentrack/wiki/Building-under-MS-Visual-C---2017-and-later).
