FreeD is not exclusive to any particular tracking system, but is frequenty used as an interchange protocol since it is supported by a wide range of hardware and software. However, as an older standard, it is lower precision and does not contain len distortion data like Stype or Ncam, so it is recommended to use the hardware specific protocol when possible. Examples of hardware and software that support FreeD are Viz Virtual Studio and Panasonic PTZ cameras. \nThe channels exported by the FreeD are:\n\ncamera_id - a number from 0 - 255 that can be used to store an id number for the camera\ntx, ty, tz - camera position, can be connected to the Camera COMP Translate parameters\nrx, ry, rz - camera rotation, can be connected to the Camera COMP Rotate parameters\nfocus - a 24-bit positive integer (0-16 million) in arbitrary units that relates to the focus ring on a camera lens. Applications can interpret this value according to the hardware in use.\nzoom - a 24-bit positive integer (0-16 million) in arbitrary units that relates to the zoom ring on a camera lens. Applications can interpret this value according to the hardware in use.\nuser - a 16-bit positive integer (0 - 65k) that can be used by the camera system to send custom user-defined dataNote: The FreeD only processes the 'D1' camera position and orientation message that is part of the FreeD protocol. All other message types will be ignored.\nIf the incoming network stream contains data for more than one camera, the Camera ID parameter can be used to select data from only one camera. If the Camera ID parameter is blank, then whatever data is received most recently will be shown - this could result in the data switching between cameras.\nFor more information or to diagnose connection problems, an Info CHOP can be connected to see if any packets have been dropped, skipped, or filtered out.\nfreedCHOP_Class\n\nContents\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n active - While On, the receives FreeD information sent to the network port.
