NatNet SDK
NatNet's client/server architecture allows client applications to run on the same network or computer as the tracking software (Motive). The SDK integrates seamlessly with standard languages (C/C++/C#/Python), tools (Microsoft Visual Studio), and protocols (UDP/Unicast/Multicast). Using the NatNet SDK, developers can quickly integrate OptiTrack motion tracking data into new and existing applications, including custom plugins to third-party applications and engines for real-time streaming.

NatNet SDK 4.3.0
This version of the NatNet SDK improves the streaming samples, but does NOT change the bitstream syntax. It is intended to work smoothly with all versions of Motive.
Note:
Direct Depacketizers (those not using NatNet): No changes for this version.
Removed the MATLAB code from NatNet and started distributing a separate plugin.

NatNet

- Features
-
- Unicast Data Subscription - Users can now adjust Unicast streaming clients to configure the tracking data they receive. For example, each client can now subscribe to specific rigid bodies and receive only the subscribed tracking data over unicast; making the streaming packets lighter and faster for each client. This cuts down the latency for large VR installations and smaller systems alike. (Supported in Motive 2.2+.)
