Technical Specifications
System Architecture
Odyssey Desktop, our tracking software, runs on a Windows or Linux PC. It connects to every OATS tracker, tracks each one, and streams the data to the training software through the Odyssey client SDK. Trackers connect with a USB cable, over Wi-Fi, or through one or more Odyssey Bluetooth dongles.

- Pose Precision
- ±3 mm at 15 ft (4.6 m) on a 65-inch HDTV
- Pose Accuracy
- Within 1% of the shooting distance on an HDTV, 1.5% on a projection screen
- Concurrent Screens
- Up to 6, with 2 side by side
- Display Types
- Projection screens, HDTVs, and computer monitors
- Connectivity
- USB, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth LE through the Odyssey dongle
- OATS Trackers
- Depends on the computer (16 at once for SVT)
Integration Capabilities
OATS is designed to work with the engines simulators are built on. We support VBS4 and Unity, and the Odyssey client SDK (C#, C++, Python, and Rust) connects other engines and your own software. Odyssey Desktop also keeps the trackers' firmware up to date.
General Dynamics' true-ballistics software already uses our solution, and Laser Shot content works with our system.
Our technology also works with:
- Green gas and CO₂ airsoft guns
- Electric-recoil airsoft guns
- CoolFire conversion barrels for real weapons
- Dvorak
- Bluetooth magazines from Dry Fire Mag and Mantis
Big announcement:Laser Ammo software now works with OATS!
Partnership Opportunities for Training Organizations, Distributors, and Partners.
Odyssey Arm seeks strategic partners who share our commitment to advancing marksmanship training through innovative technology. We offer comprehensive support programs designed to ensure partners succeed in bringing next-generation training solutions to their markets.
Training Organizations
Instructors at Texas Gun Club and Clear Creek Gun Range use OATS to train their classes, and students' feedback on its effectiveness has been extremely positive.
New students found that OATS greatly reduced their anxiety about shooting for the first time, while experienced students used it to find weaknesses in their shooting.
OATS gives instructors a new, interactive way to deliver engaging instruction, and can provide additional streams of income.
Authorized Distributors
Retailers can run a virtual gun range in their store, livening up the customer experience.
OATS opens up new sources of service, product, and recurring revenue.
Development Partners
OATS greatly expands the total addressable market for simulator companies by enabling civilians to train at home on their HDTVs.
Become a development partner to bring your existing content to this large, untapped market, or to develop new training and gaming content that lets users train with real and airsoft weapons.
