TrackIR, created by NaturalPoint Inc., is an optical motion tracking controller for Microsoft Windows.
It tracks head motions with up to six degrees of freedom (6DOF) which allows for handsfree view control. Head position and orientation are measured by a purpose-built video camera, mounted on top of the user's monitor, that observes infrared (IR) light reflected or emitted by markers on a rigid model worn by the user.
