Hello,

We are trying to perform a registration and use the live tracking using the
MITK IGT Tracking Toolbox.
We have a pointer tool with a rom file from NDI Architect and an stl model,
as well as a skull model with a rom-file and an stl, representing it's
surface. The skull has an attached rigid body with optical tracking markers
and some fiducial which we are able to identify on the surface and in the
stl.

We are performing the following steps:

1. Load a pointer tool with it's rom file and stl.
2. Start the tracking and validate the pointer-rom-file by making a pivot
movement. The tool tip position remains the same in the visualization.

3. Stop the tracking and load the skull-rom with it's rom file and the
skull-stl as visualization.

4. Connect to the NDI and start the tracking.
5. Switch to IGT Fiducial Registration Plugin
6. Choose the pointer tool as tracking pointer
7. Choose the skull as surface
8. Add 6 fiducial positions by clicking them on the skull-stl-model as
"Image/object/moving fiducials"
9. Add the same 6 points in the same order by touching them with the
pointer-tool on the skull surface. The skull is not moved during this
procedure.
Now we can see our two point sets in the display, which are not registered.

10. Check "Move image points" (turn it on) and click "Register (object is
moved)"

What bugs me the most is that now the image point set is moved, but not the
skull-model. (We still didn't move the skull)
We can touch all the fiducials from before with the pointer-tool and still
validate that the points in the tracker point set are the same.
Also the image point set does not keep it's relative spacial position,
meaning two points are "off" in relation to the other four.

If we now move the skull, only the skull-model is moving, neither of the
point sets.

Our questions are:
Why does the registration have no effect on the stl model (which we want to
registrer)?
Why does the point-based registration go wrong?

If we repeat the procedure without checking "Move image points", the image
point set does not move (makes sense). The rest remains the same. When
moving the skull, none of the points move. Only the stl-model moves.

Thank you for your help in advance,
Jan
