Hardware & Technical OpenTrack webcam head tracker now works!
- Thread starter RickDangerous
- Start date
I've recently just uploaded my 3 point "Cap Version" head tracking model to thingiverse for those with a 3D printer (or know of a friend who has one).
The LEDs and resistor cost me about $4.10 (in Australia), and threw in a 9v battery and worked really well with a modified PS3 Eye with light filter that only allowed IR light to get in.
The .STL file is here, I've designed it to be easy and fast to print, takes 30mins at 0.3, and needs no supports to print.

So far it's working pretty well with FaceTrackNoIR. I might have to see how OpenTrack does.

Guys I have a problem, please try to help me with it..
I have EyeToy web camera(ps 2). It worked for few months, but now some-why it doesn't work with any program except 1 program which called "EyeToy.exe". (When I downloaded the drivers for the cam it was with it. I don't know anything about this except just with this program my cam works now)
When I click "Start" at OpenTrack it opens a window: http://prntscr.com/6ujuyl
Anything I click it doesn't work: http://prntscr.com/6ujver
I want to remind you that it worked for few months, few days ago this problem happened.
Sorry for my bad English, thanks for help

I've been trying for the past hour to get this to work and I'm just getting annoyed now. I've tried all sorts of combinations of different trackers and webcams. As soon as I try the HT FaceTracker opentrack crashes 'This application has requested Runtime to terminate in an unusual way.'
I've reinstalled opentrack to no avail. I've tried the Pointracker protocol and that just flashes tracking points at very stationary points in the background on my webcam.
Any help would be appreciated.
