Ascension Releases New USB-Based Mocap Tracker

Ascension Technology has released Nest of Birds, a new magnetic mocap tracker that uses a plug-and-play USB interface for faster installation and set up. Nest of Birds tracks the position and location of four sensors in real time. With its USB connection, Ascension says that Nest of Birds’ installs and sets up fast, and thanks to its DC magnetic tracking technology measurements are less susceptible to distortions from nearby metals than older AC magnetic trackers. A dual-extended range transmitter option is available for coverage of up to 12’ x 14’. Pricing was not disclosed.
