Move your head. The game follows.
Lean round a corner. Glance at a mirror. Peek over the dash. Your phone tracks your head and moves the game camera with you. Nothing to buy, nothing to wear.

Head tracking + OBS camera
Your phone is the tracker.
Use Headcam with DCS, iRacing, MSFS and the hundreds of games OpenTrack supports, plus dozens more through free mods.
Streaming too? Send your phone's video and audio straight to OBS with the QuickFeed plugin.
See how to get connectedWhat it does
Turn, tilt and lean
All six degrees of movement, from the Face ID camera on iPhone or our own tracking model on Android. Smoothed on the phone and sent at 60 updates a second by default, or up to 120.
Streams to OBS, fast
Video and noise-cancelled audio go straight into OBS through QuickFeed, our own plugin. A green screen effect without the green screen, background blur and face lighting come with the optional Pro upgrade.
Make the movement your own
Headcam maps your head to the camera 1:1 by default for small leans, glances and peeks. Turn up the sensitivity on any axis for a bigger movement in game, or use OpenTrack for custom curves.
Nothing leaves your network
No servers, no accounts, no analytics, no ads. Your face stays on the phone. The only things sent to your PC are six numbers describing where your head is, and your video if you choose to stream.
