TrackIR 5 camera support?

I have TrackIR 5 (basic non pro) system here and am wondering if the developers have looked into working with the camera TrackIR 5 uses.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TrackIR

According to that source the TrackIR 5 camera is capable of:

TrackIR 5 640×480 120 (FPS) 51.7 (angle) 1/150th (subpixel precision)

From the above, it would sound like a great option from the FPS point assuming
that resolution is sufficient.

Maybe you and TrackIR could collaborate.

Before the devs respond I would already like to point out a few things:

It uses IR instead of camera images, making it not (directly) workable with the tracking software they are using, which IS based on images.
It is windows-only, and the devs already said they are going to branch out to all other systems too
Next to that specific camera, it also requires you to wear certain equipment on yourself to be able to work (or so it seems to me)

Thanks for the reply.

It definatly won't work. Okay, bad idea. Back to searching for a decent webcam that
is reasonably future proof.
