Ubiquitous Tracking Projects

Inside-Out Tracking

Inside-Out Tracking

Current tracking solutions routinely used in a clinical, potentially surgically sterile, environment are limited to mechanical, electromagnetic or classic optical tracking. Main limitations of these technologies are respectively the size of the arm, the influence of ferromagnetic parts on the magnetic field and the line of sight between the cameras and tracking targets. These drawbacks limit the use of tracking in a clinical environment. The aim of this project is the development of so-called inside-out tracking, where one or more small cameras are fixed on clinical tools or robotic arms to provide tracking, both relative to other tools and static targets.
These developments are funded from the 1st of January 2016 to 31st of December 2017 by the ZIM project Inside-Out Tracking for Medical Applications (IOTMA).
