Customizing Tracking Bounds
Motive can have restrictions placed to customize tracking. Infrared sources, such as a LED Stringer of a
BTBeacon, that are outside these restrictions will not be acknowledged by the system.
Motive 2
Limiting Tracking Within Boundaries
In Motive, as an optional step, you can create a boundary around the Space. The boundary commands
the system to ignore infrared sources outside this boundary. BTBeacon positional data found outside the
boundary will not be sent downstream to other applications.
To define boundaries, you need to measure how far the origin of the Space is from the intended
boundary in the Space. This is required for each axes (XYZ). The origin of the Space should be the same
origin as the duplicate Space made in WYSIWYG.
Attention: In Motive, the Z axis represents length and the Y axis represents height. For the rest of
BlackTrax the Z axis represents height and the Y axis represents length. +X also becomes -X in Motive.
Note: Be aware of the -Y setting for your Space. If the origin of the Space is elevated and tracking occurs
below the origin, ensure the value can cover the intended tracking area.
To set the tracking boundary of the space
In Motive, change the layout to Running preset. From the Layout menu, choose Running.1.
Tip: You may click the drop-down box at the right-hand side of the main toolbar and click
Running from the drop-down menu of layout presets.
In the Application Settings window, click the Live Reconstruction tab.2.
On the Live Reconstruction tab, click the Advanced Options heading to open the Advanced Options3.

On the Advanced Options section, click the Reconstruction Bounds heading to open4.
the Reconstruction Bounds section.
On the Reconstruction Bounds section, click the Visible Bounds drop-down menu and select True. 5.
Result: The set tracking boundary of Space is displayed in the Perspective View window. The
set tracking boundary of the Space will not be displayed in the Perspective View window if
False is selected.

Close the Reconstruction Properties window.12.
Result: The boundary in your Space is defined. Tracking is only possible inside this
