Subject: TECH REQUEST: Driver for multiple sensor Polhemus tracker?
Date: Fri, 19 Jun 92 14:28:50 PDT



We have several Polhemus trackers in two configurations

1) single source/single sensor 
2) 1 source and 2 sensors.

There are several drivers available for the first configuration; does
anyone have a driver for the second, or know how to modify a driver
for the first?  It seems to me that it ought to be a fairly simple
thing to do - just specify which sensor you want data from, either
before you request a data record or paas in the sensor # as an
additional parameter. I didn't see anything in the the 3Space User's
manual from Polhemus about how to do this. We're interested in using
the driver software on SGIs running Irix 4.0.4; if it also runs on
Suns, so much the better.

Thanks in advance,

Chris Esposito
