optirx v0.1.0

OptiRX for node

A pure Javascript library to receive motion capture data from OptiTrack Streaming Engine, transcribed from Sergey Astanin's python library optirx.

OptiTrack is a line of motion capture products by NaturalPoint. Their software can broadcast motion capture data via a documented binary protocol. It is supposed to be used together with the proprietary NatNet SDK, which, unfortunately, is not available for javascript. OptiRX for node and it's documentation is based on Sergey Astanin python library optirx, which in turn is based on the direct depacketization example from the SDK. Both Python and Javascript packages do not use NatNet SDK.

Install

    npm install optirx

Compatibility

Motive 1.7.x (NatNet 2.7.0.0).

Usage

Assuming the raw data of Motive can be accessed (through udp multicast), the following code unpacks a data buffer:

    optirx = require('optirx');
    unpackedData = optirx.unpack(dataBuffer);
