Enable/Move Mouse Cursor with Headtracking (non-VR) for Clickable Cockpits?


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

I have looked everywhere, but I don't seem to be able to find a method of moving the mouse cursor over a clickable cockpit items with Headtracking. I am using OpenTrack with a Delan Clip, but I am happy to try any Headtracking software..

My hope was to be able to "look and click" with OpenTrack + HOTAS buttons or something similar. It seems to be a simple concept, but either it is more trouble than it is worth, or I haven't searched with the right question.

Would it be as simple as binding the mouse axis to the HeadTracking Axis in some manner?

Many thanks

Not sure you can (Im pretty certain you cant). In practice Ive never found Headtraking to be a great pointing solution at its following you head not your eyes. There was a finger "thing" mooted about the forums some time ago..I think this was it
