5. Open OpenTrack
6. In the Input dropdown of OpenTrack select UDP over network

Playstation 3 Eye

You will need to have the CL Eye Driver installed if you want to use this type of webcam. You can get it here

Tips:

• Try to use a webcam with a wide field of view and at eye level to correctly detect pitch angles
• Usually a lower resolution increase the framerate and makes the work easier for the AI

Compiling:

1. You need to run the download_models.ps1 script to download the AI models (~500 Mb).
2. Build it with visual studio 2019 and make sure that the Libs content is copied to the output

Acknowledgments:

This tracker uses the amazing Tada's OpenFace API.
Unfortunately the AI model doesn't work well with people who wear glasses and training it takes a lot of time and knowledge
