RE: Commercial Headtracker

Anything new on this?

I'm also looking for a video switch so that I can switch between onboard video camera and video out on a still camera (for framing shots).

RE: Commercial Headtracker

Is this referring to my question about whether or not it's required to hold the trainer switch in the ON position? If so, trainer mode is ON when the switch is UP. So you'd have to tie to a pin on...

RE: Commercial Headtracker

How do those magnetometers work? I'd seen those before but didn't consider them in my research because I thought that they relied on an external magnetic source. If that's the case, then they would...

RE: Commercial Headtracker

Rob: Definitely an issue in my oppinion. I can't speak for mklarich's equipment. But from the research I've done so far, this is a concern. Because it is detecting relative motions there could...

RE: Commercial Headtracker

Yes I can. Although I had to steal one of the servos I had mounted on it for my TwinStar.

Actually, the plan was to use the wing from the TwinStar but build a custom fuselage that will allow me...

RE: Commercial Headtracker

Sort of... One video camera for navigation. And one digital still camera for taking pictures. The video camera doubles as a targeting camera for the digital still camera since they will be both...

RE: Commercial Headtracker

Is that the board for the headtracking unit? I'm a bit lost. I didn't think there were any servo connections on the pilot side. Or are you showing something different now?

BTW, I'll be a Beta...

RE: Commercial Headtracker

That's the idea. I've built a prototype pan/tilt camera mount that's large enough to put a wireless video camera, and a small digital still camera on (mounting face is 4" x 4" ). So the point is,...

RE: Commercial Headtracker

Yes, you're right. I was thinking dual rates when I typed that (not end points). Adjusting the rates in the transmitter should have the same effect as a gain adjustment with a potentiometer.

RE: Commercial Headtracker

Some gain adjustability would be a good idea. Unless we will still have the capability of still using our end-point adjustments and such. Although for those that do not have a computer radio, I...

RE: Commercial Headtracker

Yes, you're right... Initial quote on the high side and hopefully working it down is much nicer for the consumer, then seeing it go up, up, and away! :)

So when will they be available?? :D

RE: Commercial Headtracker

You seem to be avoiding any technical questions about it. So I'll assume that you do not wish to discuss it in detail. That's fine, I understand. Not sure I can afford $250 for a head tracker...

RE: Commercial Headtracker

What's an IMU?

See, I thought about using accelerometers. But the problem is those sense linear acceleration. You need to convert that to a rotational acceleration. I'm assuming you need to...

RE: Commercial Headtracker

Sky High: I've got one uploading as well. But from your description, it may be the same video. The guy flying is basically bolted to a table with his transmitter. It's almost a pure mechanical...

RE: Commercial Headtracker

Thanks Matt. That's what I figured, but everyone started talking about camera gimbal mounts. :) In my case, I was thinking about mounting something directly on top of my display goggles. That of...

You guys seem to be concentrating on the mechanical camera gimbal mounts. But what about the pilot side of things? When I hear "headtracking", I think of First Person Real Time Camera Tracking...

RE: Commercial Headtracker

Can you tell me what kind of technology the headtracking pan/tilt systems use? I've been doing some research on building one myself and have found several technologies of interest, including rate...
