	Sandio Game O' 6DOF Review (PC) \| Killer Betties
		Now, that doesn't mean the 6DOF is perfect even in that regards, because it's often hard to keep forward pressed, so my character will make constant stops and pauses, but given what I was able to program in, it works remarkably well.
		The 6DOF also comes with options for 400, 800, 1600, and 2000 DPI choices, so if one mouse movement is too sensitive, dial it down to see if one of the others work better (average work I use 1600 while for graphics programs 800 works well).
		For what the 6DOF was made for, it works relatively well, though there is lag to be had and I'm not quite sure I really saw an improvement in my gun blazing fighting ability.

	Headtracking real time 6DOF
		The procedure to determine 6DOF data from a given frame of raw data from the imaging sensor(s), is a non-linear iterative process and requires highly optimized assembly code to complete the required tasks in the amount of time available.
		The processor must first correct the raw data for lens distortion, then calculate the centroids of the helmet mounted LEDs to a predetermined subpixel precision, and lastly identify an in-tolerance fit between the known 3D spatial model and the calculated model utilizing a proprietary modified DLT method.
		Ultimately the entire 6DOF process should take place on the sensor but the feasibility and technology involved is not yet well understood.

	SimHQ Forums: TrackIR 6DOF preorders (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		He is very excited about 6DOF and will put it in BoB, but he feels it will affect too many things in PF and is reluctant to have it enabled.
		I think that our position on PF support for full 6DOF is pretty clear, we would love for it to happen, but we can't do anything about it as is Oleg's game and he knows what would be best for it.
		Remember, it is not that 6DOF doesn't work in PF that is NOT TRUE, it just works on only 2 axis, pitch and yaw.

	NBDL Six-DOF (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		The MOOG 6DOF uses electric actuators instead of hydraulic pistons, which results in smoother and quieter operation.
		The 6DOF is installed in one of NBDL's isolation rooms, thus enabling accurate climate and environment control.
		A test subject standing on the finished structure is ready to begin a simulated firefighting task on the 6DOF moving platform during MII research.

	6DoF ECEF (Quaternion) :: Blocks (Aerospace Blockset)
		The origin of the ECEF coordinate frame is the center of the Earth, additionally the body of interest is assumed to be rigid, an assumption that eliminates the need to consider the forces acting between individual elements of mass.
		Mass and inertia vary linearly as a function of mass rate (see Simple Variable Mass 6DoF ECEF (Quaternion)).
		Mass and inertia variations are customizable (see Simple Variable Mass 6DoF (Quaternion)).

	6DoF (Quaternion) (Aerospace Blockset)
		For a description of the coordinate system employed and the translational dynamics, see the block description for the 6DoF (Euler Angles) block.
		The integration of the rate of change of the quaternion vector is given below.
		The block assumes that the applied forces are acting at the center of gravity of the body, and that the mass and inertia are constant.

	TrackIR3 Vector Expansion
		6DOF is, in essence, full 3D head movement within the game, tracking not only where you’re looking, but also where your virtual head is within the cockpit.
		Sitting on the end runway 27R after the flight loads, I switch to virtual-cockpit mode (as is required to use the TrackIR3 features) and my head motions are immediately apparent within the cockpit.
		Even though 6DOF support within simulations is currently thin it is another obvious and necessary step in simulation that will undoubtedly be supported by developers, much like TrackIR enhanced mode support is now.

	FlightSim.Com Review: TrackIR Vector
		But 6DOF viewpoint has values well beyond the wow facto as you will see later.
		With TrackIR Vector the view is dynamic all of the time and thus you need to keep your head really still if you want to tune your CDI to the inbound radial of the VOR.
		6DOF head tracking is obviously great stuff for Microsoft Flight simulator but be aware that you buy a very versatile 6DOF head tracker that can be applied elsewhere.

	6DoF 0.0.1 for Doom III Download - Mod DB
		Thanks for downloading 6DoF, a mini-mod designed for one purpose: to prove that you can do 6dof motion and controls in Doom3.
		Since we intend to bring the classic gameplay of "Descent" into Doom3, this is an absolute necessity.
		You'll notice the difference in mouse control immediatley, but for the full 6DOF you need to bind keys to "_button5" and "_button6" - theseare the buttons for rolling left and right, respectively.

	Codemasters forum - Track iR 6DOF Support???
		6DOF refers to 6 degrees of freedom, allowing you to turn, tilt and move your head along 6 different axes that will be translated into in game movements.
		In truth I very much doubt that you will see track IR in TRD3, its quite niche and probably not worth the dev time.
		Apparantly RD2 does support track.ir and 6dof (http://www.naturalpoint.com/trackir...e-driver-2.html).

	Information Bridge: DOE Scientific and Technical Information
		Rate gyros will be added to the new six degree of freedom (6DOF) device so that it will be possible to observe the six linear and angular accelerations of the Sensor Fish as it passes the dam.
		Before the 6DOF Sensor Fish device can be developed and deployed, governing equations of motion must be developed in order to understand the design implications of instrument selection and placement within the body of the device.
		The 6DOF simulator will also be an essential component in tools to analyze field data measured using the next generation Sensor Fish.

	iDevGames - Community Forum - 6DOF camera....
		"strafing" makes it sound like you want a bit more than simple location/rotation which is all that's required by your "6DOF" requirement.
		I've used his code before to make a 6DOF camera by always describing the camera's rotations as quaternions (avoids gimbal lock, and allows for some nice interpolation.
		The OpenGL base code uses some Windows/SDL Code, but you can just have a look at the Camera Class, which is just in OpenGL.

		Well you really need 6DOF to be able to look around all the posts and stuff in the cockpit
		Making them usable in 6DOF would mean creating all new cockpits which involves quite a lot of work.
		I had no interest whatsoever in 1.2 (that helicopter's just a slower version of the 25-T if you ask me, and the 25T's slow enough already), but that's still a great video.

	Sandio Game O' 6DOF 3D Gaming Mouse Review - PC
		Sandio’s 6DOF mouse is, no doubt, following a trend to put more control within easy access, and this is a well-realized mouse.
		It does not have much weight to it, so those who like the weighted variety of mouse (like Logitech’s G5) might not enjoy the “feel” of the mouse, but do not confuse lack of weight with flimsy.
		This is an easy recommend for gamers wanting to compact control schemes and while it can be used for a variety of applications, it is particularly useful in first-person shooters but with fully-programmable functionability, this mouse is conceptually strong and a good product.
