Easy Wire Management

A unique inline wiring and branching technology that typically results in an 80% reduction in the number of wires needed. Fewer wires and tangles mean fast and easy experiment set-up.

Easy Experiment Reproducibilty

Specific marker configurations can be captured to be used again and again, making it easy to move a marker setup from one subject to another.

Instant Marker Detection

The Optotrak can instantly detect and uniquely identify Smart Markers such that they never get mixed up, eliminating the need for data sorting.

Flexible Marker Set-up

Unique to Northern Digital Inc., the Smart Marker Hub allows for any desired marker configuration. Use a combination of Smart Markers and Smart Marker Hubs to quickly and repeatedly create marker configurations that are immediately determined by the system.

Note: Smart Marker technology is compatible with the Optotrak family, including Optotrak 3020 and Optotrak Certus.
