Corvallis, OR — Put Your Head In the Game!™ In co-operation with Creative Labs, NaturalPoint is proud to announce the TrackClip PRO, a revolutionary motion tracking accessory providing unprecedented view control in PC games.

Flight, Combat and Racing games gain a competitive edge from TrackClip PRO and a Creative Labs headsets.
TrackClip PRO makes gaming and simulations instantly more immersive, intuitive, and natural than ever before. Now players have complete freedom to view their gaming world just as they would view the real world - by using their head.
