Be mindful of objects within the stage that occludes your tracker’s line of sight to the base station. Occlusion can be caused by stage props, lighting equipment, and even crew members. Consider lighting the actors correctly before tuning the location of Base Stations.

Lighting equipment can be a major occlusion element if positioned in front of the Base Station.

The camera operator’s head is blocking the tracker.

When re-centering, try to keep the original Rover somewhere out of the way from the foot traffic and the camera movement, yet in view of the Base Stations so people will not be blocking its line of sight.

Depending on available mounting equipment, you may consider propping up the Rover (tracker) so it's not blocked by the camera operator or other attachments on the camera.

Secure the Rover on a rigid frame to prevent it from being easily jostled or moved.

<aside> ⚡ We recommend you set up Base Stations before the shoot, not during. If the Base Station is moved while it's on, its base coordinates might drift. Re-centering might not reposition the origin point back to its previous (0,0,0) position in UE. If that occurs, make sure to restart Mars.
