ART’s Optical tracking cameras known for their precision object tracking and wide FOV enables achieving higher tracking volume and low latency with less number of cameras. This unlocks the natural movement of users within pyhsical envioronement while virtual content remained locked in position.
 
As a global leader in optical tracking technology, ART (Advanced Realtime Tracking) is dedicated to delivering precision-engineered solutions tailored to the unique needs of Augmented Reality (AR), Mixed Reality (MR), and Virtual Reality (VR) applications. Recognizing that no two setups are the same, ART has developed a scalable range of configurations to suit various tracking volumes, user interactions, and application complexities.

Typical application scenarios for HMD tracking

With rapidly transforming the landscape of the virtual reality by means of Mixed reality and Augmented reality guiding new era to immersive as well as interactive technologies across various industries. To contribute into this space, ART has developed cutting edge tech cameras such as AT7-80 and AT7-50 which not only track larger areas but also by creating custom passive markers HMD Targets for devices like Varjo, HTC, Metaquest pro, Panasonic etc. to enable robust, realtime tracking without the reliance of internal IMUs alone. ART along with its partners has managed to create a system which enables seamless integration, has low latency and can create a drift free immersion.

Compact Precision for Targeted Interaction

This is the ideal configuration for compact AR/MR environments such as cockpit simulators, product design labs, and academic research spaces. With a tracking volume of up to 10 × 10 meters, this setup enables 1–2 users to interact fluidly with digital content—all powered by just four ART cameras.

Whether you're reviewing an in-cabin design or conducting desktop-level interaction, this setup provides remarkable accuracy and performance in a small footprint.
