<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Thanks for the clarification Andrew. Is
that command the only one that should be updated in IGSTK? Maybe
we can update the IGSTK interface to the latest version of Aurora<br>

you want to make use of the dome volume you must explicitly
select it using the VSEL command in the API. The last time
I used IGSTK, which was several years ago, I was not able to
use the dome volume because the VSEL command was not
included in the initialization section. There is a flow
chart in our API guide that explains how this works.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<br>
To my knowledge, IGSTK does not restrict the working volume
of the tracker: when the sensor exits the working volume, no
transformation is updated, the valid time for the
representation of the tracked object (e.g. needle tip)
expires and it is no longer rendered.<br>
<br>
NDI guys have a couple of IGSTK apps for in-house use. Maybe
they can test it.<br>
<br>
I did only test myself the old aurora EM field generator a
while ago. I will check if I am missing any Aurora
configuration parameter.
