So...I made TrackIR replica for less than a dollar, assuming about everyone already has the required materials. Which are:
-A developed single strip of film (yes, film, remember that stuff?)
-A webcam (Possible without the IR sensor, hence the film)
-A hat, and a IR mouse from another computer or spare (failry cheap now if you don't happen to have an extra)
-Freetrack (as some of you know already)
Here's a video. Sorry for teh awkward tone, it's just weird talking to..well no one but a camera.
:?
What's the difference between this and the other topics? I wasn't about to go out for that "complicated" stuff and blow some serious cash on the real deal. This is for non-computer wizes like myself. It works fine. Gets the job done right, and makes the sim experience a bit more enjoyable.
