Calibration of electromagnetic tracking devices [PDF]

open access: yesVirtual Reality, 1999
Electromagnetic tracking devices are often used to track location and orientation of a user in a virtual reality environment. Their precision, however, is not always high enough because of the dependence of the system on the local electromagnetic field which can be altered easily by many external factors.
