**Data flow from trackers to CAVE !**
 As the user moves inside the CAVE, cameras track his movement, the movement data is sent over LAN connection to the **ART CAVE Controller,** the controller throughs this data over the network via a **cisco switch** the data can be read via any PC either **Z6 or Z8**  with **DTRACK** then the software can send the position information to **VRPN or Unreal Plugin**
