PURPOSE: To determine position and velocity-dependent effects in the overall accuracy of the Calypso Electromagnetic localization system, under conditions that emulate transponder motion during normal free breathing. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Three localization transponders were mounted on a remote-controlled turntable that could move the transponders along a circular trajectory at speeds up to 3 cm/s. A stationary calibration established the coordinates of multiple points on each transponder's circular path. Position measurements taken while the transponders were in motion at a constant speed were then compared with the stationary coordinates. RESULTS: No statistically significant changes in the transponder positions in (x,y,z) were detected when the transponders were in motion. CONCLUSIONS: The accuracy of the localization system is unaffected by transponder motion.
