TrackBridge vs Adaptive HeadTrack

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.

Adaptive HeadTrack focuses on making head tracking feel more natural. Tracking gain changes continuously with head-turn speed. Fine movements use a lower gain for precise control, while faster turns become more responsive. This reduces the need for heavy Smooth and Dead Zone settings, helping cut lag and the start-stop feeling around center. Adaptive HeadTrack uses the TrueDepth camera on iPhone and iPad for 6DOF tracking and sends motion data over the local network to OpenTrack on a Windows PC. Game compatibility Works with OpenTrack and games that support FreeTrack, TrackIR, or compatible head-tracking protocols, including Microsoft Flight Simulator, X-Plane, DCS World, IL-2 Sturmovik, War Thunder, Star Citizen, Elite Dangerous, Euro Truck Simulator 2, American Truck Simulator, Assetto Corsa, Assetto Corsa Competizione, and more. Eye-focus gain control Eye-focus state can also influence tracking gain, giving you another way to adjust tracking without using extra buttons. 240 Hz pose timeline reconstruction TrueDepth input runs at up to 60 Hz. Adaptive HeadTrack reconstructs the pose timeline at up to 240 Hz for smoother motion and better continuity during fast head movement. Tracking stability The tracking pipeline is tuned for small jitter, short input disturbances, and rapid movement while keeping smoothing and dead zones low. Advanced tuning You can adjust adaptive gain, tracking response, smoothing, stability, recenter assistance, eye-focus control, and other tracking parameters directly in the app. Main features - 6DOF TrueDepth head tracking - Adaptive gain based on head-turn speed - Lower reliance on Smooth and Dead Zone - Eye-focus gain control - 240 Hz pose timeline reconstruction - Recenter assistance - Stable tracking under brief disturbances - Advanced parameter tuning - Up to 60 Hz TrueDepth input - Local-network connection to OpenTrack OpenTrack must be installed and configured on the Windows PC before first use.
