TrackBridge
Read full descriptionHide full description
Turn your iPhone into a precise head tracker for flight, racing, and truck sims - no extra hardware, no TrackIR, no account. Move your head, and the in-game camera follows. TrackBridge uses your iPhone's TrueDepth camera to capture your head's rotation and position, then streams it over your local network to OpenTrack on your PC. From there it drives head look in the sims you already play. HOW IT WORKS Your iPhone reads your head pose (yaw, pitch, roll and position) and sends it via UDP to OpenTrack. OpenTrack passes it on to your game - the same setup people use with dedicated tracking hardware, just with the phone you already own. QUICK SETUP 1. Install OpenTrack on your PC (free, open source). 2. In OpenTrack, set Input to "UDP over network". 3. Open TrackBridge and enter your PC's IP address (default port 4242). 4. Place your phone facing you - on a stand, a mount, or against your monitor. 5. Start tracking and look around in your sim. An in-app guide walks you through it the first time. FEATURES - 6 degrees of freedom: head rotation and position - Low-latency UDP streaming over your local Wi-Fi or hotspot - Works with any game OpenTrack supports - No dedicated hardware, no infrared clip, no reflectors - No account, no sign-up, no personal data required - Simple, focused interface - set it up once and play FREE, SUPPORTED BY ADS TrackBridge is free. To keep it that way, it's supported by rewarded video ads: watch one short video and unlock 4 hours of uninterrupted tracking. No subscriptions, no hidden costs, nothing to buy. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS - iPhone with a TrueDepth camera (iPhone X or newer) - A PC running OpenTrack (Windows, Linux, or Mac) - iPhone and PC on the same local network Whether you're flying in your favorite flight sim, racing wheel-to-wheel, or hauling freight across the map in a truck sim, TrackBridge gives you natural, hardware-free head tracking straight from your iPhone.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TrackBridge at none against Gyroscope ∞ Rotation Sensor's 2. TrackBridge also leads on update cadence (weekly vs monthly). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
