The above steps are enough to get you into the head tracking World.

There are more advanced settings available in the opentrack software. They allow configuring more than we covered above. We do recommend to go to the “mapping” settings when you get familiar with the software. Mapping allows you to fine tune the head movement translated into the game. You can make it more or less sensitive thanks to mappings.

Bear in mind that not all infomration covered there will apply for face tracking. We only recommend to tweak the mapping if necessary.
