Tracking Range Options Home > Products > Tracking Range Options Four separate transmitter options are available for use with our pulsed DC and AC magnetic trackers. Whether you want to track motions at short, mid or long range, we have the right option for you. Choices run from a small lightweight transmitter designed for precise, close-range usage to a powerful long-range transmitter pair, providing enough coverage for multiple performers to be tracked throughout a full-sized room. The following chart will help you choose the right one for your applications. Compact Transmitter Planar (Flat) Transmitter Standard Transmitter Extended Range Transmitter Close Range Short Range Mid Range Long Range Up to +3 ft (0.9 m) coverage Up to 1.6 ft (0.5 m) coverage Up to +4 ft (1.2 m) coverage Up to +10 ft (3.0 m) coverage Set-up & Use: This small, light-weight transmitter is often mounted on an articulated arm that can be brought close to its sensors. Especially useful for high accuracy medical applications. Set-up & Use: Our planar transmitter lies flat on the floor or can be embedded in either a horizontal or vertical structure for ease of use. Set-up & Use: Our standard range transmitter is ideal for desktop applications in environments containing conductive metals. Set-up & Use: One or two ERTs can be operated in tandem to provide full coverage over 10 ft x 15 ft(3 m x 4.5 m) range of operation. Available with mounting stands.
