Using the Joystick During Target Tracking
After you initiate a tracking session by acquiring a target, you can use the joystick
in two ways:
You can move the tracking gate up and down or left and right to better center it
1.
over the target.
For example, you are tracking a boat and want to center the boat's engine in
the tracking gate to ensure a more distinct target region. You use the joystick
to nudge the tracking gate to center it on the engine.
Caution: Behind the scenes, the tracker is actually releasing and reacquiring the
target. Under some conditions, the tracker may lose the target during this
operation.
You can modify the location on the screen that the tracker centers on. By
2.
default, the center of the tracker's target is the center of the screen. This is
indicated by a set of gray cross hairs.
For example, you are tracking a boat and the tracking gate is centered on the
boat's engine. However, when the engine is tracked at the center of the
screen, the bow of the boat is cut off on the right. You can fix this by
temporarily changing the tracking offset. You hold down the MENU button and
use the joystick to move the tracking gate to the left. This shifts the scene so
that the missing part of the boat comes into view.
