Many of + the conceived devices, such as the \gls{gpl} licensed \textit{Hedrot} + \citep{website:hedrot}, allow for \gls{osc} communication.\\ + Using the \gls{osc} interface, such a head tracker can be added as a + client to a \gls{ssr} instance. This would probably require + rate-limiting the sensor output, but would enable a networked setup, + that could prove to be cheaper, more reliable and flexible, than the + compile-time opt-ins (i.e.\ VRPN, Polhemus Fastrak/ Patriot, InterSense + InertiaCube3).\\ \cleardoublepage \pagestyle{empty} |
