This compares favorably with current magnetic systems from Ascension and Polhemus and is less than half the entry cost of passive optical systems. While the 3 meter cube-shaped performance space is a limiting constraint, the very modular design could easily allow larger configurations. Larger performance spaces might require higher-power markers or more sensitive receivers, but these don't appear to be complex engineering problems to solve. As with all sequential flashing systems, the sampled frame rate drops linearly with the number of sensors being captured. This is the system's real limitatiom, and one which might be more difficult to address with engineering.
Reactor is a relatively new system which shows promise.
Its entry-level cost appears targeted at current users of magnetic capture systems, while offering similar performance space constraints. Unlike magnetic capture systems Reactor does not suffer from the difficult problem of magnetic and metallic interference. If the product does not show any unusual weaknesses as it enters commercial service, it will be interesting to see how quickly users of magnetic systems upgrade to Reactor. Looking forward, if the system scales up to larger performance spaces, there is even a chance that it will compete with passive optical machines.
