The IGT Tracking Plugin

This plugin offers basic tracking functionalities. This includes connecting to a tracking system, logging and recording of tracking data, managing tracking tools and playing recorded tracking data.

The plugin includes different views, which are described on different pages in detail.

As part of the tutorial, it is recommended to get familiar with each of the following views as they lead you through the main functionality of the IGT plugin. Please read the following pages to get familiar with them:

• The MITK-IGT Tracking Toolbox : Allows for connecting a tracking system and logging/recording the tracked data.
• The MITK-IGT Navigation Tool Manager : This view offers functionality to manage tool storages. Each tool storage holds a preconfigured tool collection. Once saved you can load a tool storage in the Tracking Toolbox and don't need to add every tool separately.
• The NavigationData Player : Plays navigation data which was recorded with the Tracking Toolbox for example.
• The MITK-IGT Navigation Tool Calibration Calibration Tool Manager. This view offers functionality to calibrate navigation tools.
• The IGT Registration view : The IGTFiducialRegistration view allows the recording of real world landmarks and corresponding landmarks on a virtual object.
