English term or phrase: inside-out tracking
Positional tracking: "Outside-in" vs. "Inside-out"

Optical positional tracking for goggles uses a camera (or cameras) and a known set of markers to determine the position of the camera relative to the markers. Positional tracking can be done using the visible spectrum but is more commonly done using infra-red markers and a camera that is sensitive to IR light.

There are two main options:

Inside-out tracking: where the camera is based on the goggles and the IR markers are placed in stationary locations (e.g. on the computer monitor, on the wall, etc.)

Outside-in tracking: where the camera is placed in a stationary location and the IR markers are placed on the goggles.

In both cases, the targets sometimes flash in a way that is synchronized with the camera. This allows reducing power consumption for the targets and helps reduce tracking noise from IR sources that are not the targets.

inside-out tracking / outside-in tracking
Dopunktowe i odpunktowe usytulowanie LUB skierowane i odwrocone


Explanation:
In outside-in tracking, the tracking camera(s) is placed in the external environment where the tracked object is within its line of sight and field of view. The tracking camera uses the changing views of the object itself to determine the object's position in space.
- obserwacja z zewnatrznego otoczenia- stalego miejsca na obiekt
-In inside-out tracking, the tracking camera is placed on the device being tracked such as an HMD. The device looks out to the world around it and uses the changing perspectives of the outside world to determine its own position in space.
- obserwacja z obiektu w ruchu (in motion) na otoczenia

Example sentence(s):
  • Klient nie czują skrępowania jak podczas obserwacji z kamery skierowanej bezpośrednio na niego.
  • A GPS tracking unit is a device, normally carried by a moving vehicle or person, that uses the Global Positioning System to determine and track its precise location, and hence that of its carrier, at intervals.
