Calibrating a Coordinate System<br />

The calibration of a tracking space is a bit more complicated.<br />

In order to calibrate the space you need to specify<br />

one sensor within this space. Then the calibration will<br />

move and rotate the space in such a manner that the origin<br />

and orientation of the complete tracking space coincides<br />

with the origin and orientation of the chosen sensor.<br />

This is especially useful to change the orientation of the<br />

tracking space in order to meet the needs of the given<br />

virtual and real scene.<br />

In <strong><strong>VR</strong>ED</strong> the tracking space is calibrated with the help<br />

of a body. You can use any body of the tracking system<br />

and use its implicit coordinate system as a reference for<br />

the tracking coordinate system. After calibrating the coor-<br />
