% This function demonstrates basic functionality of Optitrack SDK for
% communicating with Natural Point cameras. This has been specifically
% designed to work with the TrackIR4 camera (a small USB camera for
% tracking objects). The camera must be plugged in and device drivers
% installed. This should also work for the Optitrack cameras (FLEX).
