Boeing's X-32 Simulator using Flock of Birds Head Tracker in Flight Simulator

To lower costs and improve interactive training, a number of simulator companies now include head-tracking in their flight and vehicle simulators. In this application, computer-generated imagery is synchronized with a student’s line-of-sight angles, derived by tracking his head position with an Ascension motion tracker.
