Marker TrackingSimulation
HMD simulation with SMARTTRACK3/M
Precise HMD tracking for cockpit, in-car, and full-motion simulators — compact, low-latency, and cable-free at the helmet thanks to passive target tracking.
HMD tracking for industrial simulation
Fully immersive VR requires virtual representations to match reality precisely — high accuracy and minimal latency are critical. ART combines professional optical tracking quality with comfortable HMD use.
SMARTTRACK3/M in tight volumes
The compact all-in-one system suits cockpits, vehicle interiors, and full-motion simulators:
- Passive targets on the helmet — no cables, no batteries
- Tracking at very short distance (under 15 cm) with large range of motion
- Up to 10 objects simultaneously — e.g. two helmets in side-by-side cockpits
- Robust against moderate vibration, up to 240 Hz
Hybrid tracking & partners
Combined with IMU solutions (e.g. LPVR), the result is natural motion feel — for training, vehicle simulation, and in-car applications.
Supported HMDs
Including Varjo, HTC VIVE Pro, Valve Index, PIMAX, and VRgineers XTAL — integrable after compatibility tests.
