Smoothing: Set how fluid the XYZ values of the Trackable become.
Use the slider and the scroll box to adjust the range of fluidity from Smooth to Responsive, to
set the range between -4 to +2. Both slider and the scroll box correspond to the same

A more smoothed Trackable will result in less jitter going to the third party, and can help
