Connecting multiple atracsys cameras #717

Closed hgueziri closed 3 years ago

Hi everyone,

Is it possible to set Plus to connect to multiple atracsys cameras? If so, what would be the best way to do it? Thanks

I've never tried this, but I don't see any reason in theory why it shouldn't work. The best way to do this would be to create a config file with two Atracsys camera blocks in it. Ensure the ToolReferenceFrame attributes are different for each tracker. If both trackers can see the same marker (i.e. a reference marker) you should even be able to get the transform between the two tool reference frames (the positions of the trackers).

Cool idea - let us know if this works!
