Scalable
The base product comes standard with one marker and one receptor, equipped with four receptor channels. Additional markers can easily be added to increase the number of objects being tracked, up to 12 markers total. Each receptor covers approximately 8+ feet (2.44 m) in diameter. The system is upgradable to 8, 12, or 16 receptor channels to increase the area of tracking coverage. LATUS sets the standard for high-fidelity tracking performance and quality analysis.
HOW IT WORKS
LIBERTY LATUS uses self-contained, embeddable markers tracked by receptors. Markers can attach anywhere on the body or object and receptors are positioned within the intended tracking zone. Each receptor emits a magnetic field, creating a defined area for real-time position and orientation motion data from the markers. No additional calculations are required.
Wide Range of Motion
LIBERTY LATUS is dedicated to being a top choice for large area wireless tracking, built for professionals and researchers alike. Perfect for applications that require a wide area of movement, LATUS sets the standard for high-fidelity tracking performance and quality analysis. This makes it ideal for large scale tracking, such as helicopter training or immersive augmented reality experiences.
