Abstract
A marker tracking system configured to detect light patterns (e.g., infrared light patterns) generated by one or more markers is described. A given marker is configured with a code which identifies the marker in a motion tracking camera field of view. Motion tracking camera(s) record the emitted infrared light and are configured to directly, or in conjunction with an associated computing device, computationally distinguish a given marker with high accuracy and efficiently.
