Tracking Setup
Streaming Tracking Data
cincraft scenario can stream tracking data in real time to 3rd party software this is called a “datastream” and scenario offers three different protocols to allow for compatibility with a wide range of client devices the three options are sdk full a tcp ip based protocol that includes all camera and lens data as well as lens distortion it is not suited for wireless transmission of tracking data sdk lite a udp based protocol that is designed for sending tracking data wirelessly it includes all camera and lens data as well as lens distortion freed a very basic protocol that is widely supported in the industry it is udp based and contains the minimum information required for camera tracking lens distortion is not transmitted using this protocol and therefore, when using this protocol with a 3rd party renderer, it is necessary to manage lens distortion on the rendering side all the datastream options are configured from the “datastream” tab of the settings panel the user can enable/disable each datastream by using the toggle next to the relevant option it is not possible to disable the sdk as this is used internally by the system for the sdk lite and freed options, it is possible to define whether the data is broadcast or unicast if unicast is selected, then the user must specify the ip address of the client receiving the data the sdk lite and freed datastream's allow the user to select the “port” that they operate on ensure that whatever port number is used, matches the client setting on the 3rd party software datastream compatibility the table below shows the commonly used real time renderers and which datastream they support please refer to each renderer's documentation for instructions on how to configure the tracking data for their system renderer sdk full sdk lite freed aximmetry yes no yes brainstorm yes yes yes disguise yes no yes livefx yes no yes pixotope yes yes ross yes yes stage precision yes no no orad no no yes vizrt no yes yes unreal engine yes yes yes ventuz yes no no wasp 3d yes no no zero density no no yes
