'''Position and orientation tracking''' is the tracking of an object's [[position and rotation]] in space. '''6DOF tracking''' is the tracking of the [[position and orientation]] of something in space. It is named 6DOF because it refers to the 6 degrees of freedom: three for position and three for rotation.

6DOF tracking is often called [[positional tracking]]. It is used in an [[absolute positioning system]]. One way is to do [[magnetic tracking]].
