OptiTrack - 'PrimeX 13'
High speed, precise trackingIntroducing the OptiTrack PrimeX 13, a cutting-edge motion capture camera designed to take your motion capture studio to the next level. With its advanced 850nm band-pass filter and software-selectable filter switcher technology, this camera seamlessly transitions between infrared and visible spectrum imaging, ensuring clarity by minimizing interference from ambient light. Boasting a high-performance 1.3MP image sensor, a remarkable native frame rate of 240 fps, and an ultra-low latency of just 4.2 ms, the PrimeX 13 captures 3D motion with unparalleled precision. Featuring onboard image processing that enhances marker identification and calibration, as well as versatile compatibility options through a single RJ45 Ethernet port, the PrimeX 13 is perfect for capturing fast-paced movements and delivering high-quality data.

Mix And Match Cameras
highest 3D accuracyAny camera in the Prime and Primex family can be used together to create the optimal configuration for any use case. That is 11 different cameras that can be chosen to deliver the highest 3D accuracy in any environment.
Custom Designed Accessories
“Fast glass” M12 lensWe custom design our own super low distortion, “fast glass” lenses for optimal marker tracking. The Primex 13’s F#1.6 lens is treated with a wide band anti-reflective coating, which dramatically increases light transmission to the imager, yielding larger volumes and more precise 3D data.
Filter OptionsSwitch between IR and visible spectrum imaging with our software selectable Filter Switcher, or select a band-pass filter to more thoroughly eliminate interference from other light sources.
Powerful On-Board Image Processing
integrated image processingAll OptiTrack cameras feature integrated image processing. The algorithms which identify markers and marker centers, and the sequence of data delivery are important steps to achieve both world leading accuracy and low latency.
User Definable Colour LED Indicator
On-camera status indicatorYour OptiTrack system will let you know what it’s up to with the user definable colour LED indicator surrounding the lens. Recording a performance? Everyone on set knows the system is recording. Select a camera? It instantly changes color. Have your own idea? Simple software controls help you make it so.
New, higher output strobeUltra high power LEDs provide improved range for any given shutter setting. The world's longest range motion capture camera just got even better.

Full Resolution Grayscale Reference Video
reference video sourceAll Primex cameras can be used as a reference video source - with synchronized, calibrated 3D overlay. Deliver and/or record full resolution, full frame rate video with 3D overlay of markers, rigid bodies, skeletons, etc.
External Sync In/Out, Genlock, And Time Code
Camera syncSynchronize any Prime and Primex cameras to any signal or source with the eSync 2 with all the functionality and flexibility you’d expect with a professional tracking system. Cameras sync to dozens of sources including a professional cameras’ Genlock signal, where record and other event triggering can be managed from general purpose inputs and software commands.
Use the sync output signal as a master or to trigger force plates, EMGs and National Instrument DAQs for flexible yet precise hardware synchronization. Highly accurate frame timing can also be achieved with SMTPE Time Code for ease in editing and logging. OptiTrack’s free and open SDK allows for further customization within the timing protocols.
Expert System Configuration For Any Space
Custom BuiltOptiTrack has built over 10,000 tracking systems in areas of all shapes and sizes. Our experts can help guide you on the most economical and suitable tracking system for your needs—for today and the future.
It’s More Than Just Cameras
Continuous CalibrationIn addition to the essentials to which you’ve grown accustomed, you’ll also discover several new software features that will make you wonder how you ever got along without them. Enjoy innovations like our Continuous Calibration, where a wand wave is required on first installation only, then calibrates automatically just by using the system. No longer does the calibration degrade over time, temperature change, or after cameras are bumped.
