Optical Trackers for Motion Capture, Dynamic Motion Measurement, and Real Time Laser Scanning used in Inspection and Reverse Engineering

NDI

OptoTrak Pro

NDI Optical Trackers are the centerpiece of NDI's suite of advanced portable coordinate measurement solutions, dynamic motion measurement machines, and handheld laser scanners. With real-time, high-speed target tracking and support for multi-object, 6DOF measurement, the Optical Tracker brings unmatched ease of use to inspection and reverse engineering.

Dynamic Referencing

Anyone who measures on the shop floor will appreciate the added power of Dynamic Referencing, a unique feature that automatically compensates for movement between the part and Optical Tracker. Targets attached to the part continuously maintain a local frame of reference that ensures probe coordinates are always measured relative to the part. Now you can eliminate measurement drift and error by automatically maintaining part alignment throughout the entire inspection routine.
