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.
<br>
<br>
best regards,<br>
