This trackd configuration is for the installation of a trackd based tracking system in front of a flat stereo screen (e.g., c-wall). We use a Flock of Birds tracking system with a Wanda device for head and hand tracking, in COVISE. Our coordinate system is as follows. When in front of the screen looking at the screen: x goes the right, y goes into the screen, z goes up.
