optical tracking

Camera-based movement detection

Optical tracking uses cameras or light sensors to detect and follow the position and movement of objects.

The technology powers motion capture in film and gaming, virtual reality headsets, eye-tracking studies, and precision guidance systems.

The VR headset uses optical tracking to map your hand movements in real time.
