It's also an option to just pivot around 3-4 different points on the phantom. Then there would be no need for separate pivot calibration and then landmark registration.
We determined that this is not necessary, just have clear instructions on the tutorial that we will be using other modules
Added instructions to the private Assembla page, will make sure to include these instructions in the 3D Slicer Wiki page.
Pivot calibration:
It would determine EmPointerTipToEmPointer and OpPointerTipToOpPointer transforms. Using these, landmark calibration could be done automatically, from randomly selected points.
See how it is done in LumpNav: https://github.com/SlicerIGT/LumpNav/blob/master/LumpNav/LumpNav.py
Landmark registration:
Collect points automatically (when the tip moves less than 2mm for 2 seconds) or when a button is clicked. Stop when 8 points are collected.
