Webcam only head tracking for BS without IR

Hey guys I'm new here,

 

Was wondering if any programmers out there can link this Face Tracking API to BS's view system thus avoiding using those bulky equipment.

anyways check out if you get the same idea that I get of it's possible potential with BS and other sims in general

yes the API is free for non-commercial use so DCS developers need not apply unless you guys wanna integrate this stuff :)

 

BINGO BINGO

Ok so I found another software, its does not give me 6DOF but it works well for looking around the cockpit.

 

so in short all you need is a Webcam and this software and your on way to using your head to look around the cockpit instead of your mouse or joystick

still would be better if someone wrote the FaceAPI interface for BS but I could only dream.

actually this does not make a difference, this is a mouse emulation software via webcam. This work independent of any .dll's or proprietary interfaces. It is compatible with ALL games that support head turning with mouse inputs.

 

hey its cheap and not perfect but it works.
